AI Sales Agent for Recruitment

Candidates get screened for role fit, salary and timeline, and only matched candidates reach a recruiter's calendar.

Recruiters lose good candidates and new clients the same way: by replying a day too late. This edition talks to inbound candidates straight away, gathering experience, salary expectations, work authorization and availability against your open roles, and qualifies new hiring-client enquiries too. Matched candidates and real client opportunities are booked straight into the right consultant's calendar.

  • Candidates screened for role fit, salary and timing on day one
  • New hiring-client enquiries qualified and booked with consultants
  • Only matched candidates reach a recruiter's calendar

What it is

AI Sales Agent for Recruitment screens inbound candidates against your open roles, gathering experience, salary expectations, work authorization and availability, then books a screening call with the recruiter handling that requisition. Every screening conversation is logged in your ATS, so recruiters see the full picture before the call.

Why businesses buy it

Consultants are paid to place people and win clients, not to sift through every application by hand. When screening waits, strong candidates accept other offers and new client enquiries cool off. This edition handles the first conversation immediately and consistently, so recruiters spend their time on calls that can turn into placements and new accounts. The written scope covers the channel, the ATS and calendar connections and the Recruitment workflows before you order, so your agency knows exactly what is being built.

Problems this solves

Recruiters spend screening calls on basic eligibility questions

The agent screens inbound candidates against your open roles first. It gathers experience, salary expectations, work authorization and availability, so the recruiter's call can focus on fit and motivation.

Candidates without the right to work reach the call stage

Work authorization is one of the screening questions set in the Recruitment workflow template. Candidates who do not meet a role's requirements are not booked onto a recruiter's calendar.

Recruiters walk into calls without the candidate's details

Every screening conversation is logged in your ATS before the call. The recruiter handling that requisition sees the full picture, including salary and availability, when the call starts.

A good fit if

Candidate volume outpaces the time your recruiters have to screen each one manually, and strong candidates sometimes wait days for a first response.
The same screening questions get asked on nearly every intake call: experience, salary range, work authorization, notice period, and which roles actually interest them.
You run multiple open requisitions at once, and want candidates matched against the right one automatically instead of a recruiter sorting resumes by hand.
Your ATS already holds requisition details, and you want screened candidate profiles landing there structured, not as a pile of unread resumes.

Not the right fit if

You don't need candidate-screening logic and would rather have a general qualifying agent for a different kind of sales motion. See the AI Sales Agent, our base build without the ATS-aware screening.
Your need is closer to scoping a B2B service engagement than screening job candidates. See AI Sales Agent for B2B Services.
You need this running across more than two connected systems or more than six workflows. Add a note at checkout for a written Change Quote.
The build needs to go beyond the listed scope, for example writing full job descriptions from scratch. Larger or bespoke projects go through the Custom AI request form.

How it works

  1. We load your open requisitions, screening questions and the criteria that define a match for each role, straight from your ATS.
  2. The agent engages a candidate about role interest, experience and availability, asking follow-up questions the way a recruiter would rather than a fixed intake form.
  3. Salary expectations, work authorization and notice period are gathered directly, information most requisitions need before a recruiter's time is worth spending on a call.
  4. Candidate answers are matched against your open requisitions, and general questions about the process or the role are answered from your own documentation.
  5. Once a candidate meets a role's screening criteria, the agent books a screening call directly with the recruiter who owns that requisition.
  6. Every screened candidate's profile, structured with experience, salary range and availability, lands in your ATS ready for the recruiter to review before the call.

What you provide within 72 hours

Your portal lists these the moment you order. Delivery starts the working day after everything is in and your access is checked.

  • Admin access to your ATS, such as Bullhorn, Greenhouse or Workable, with sandbox or test records if available.
  • Your open requisitions, screening questions, and the criteria that define a matched candidate for each role.
  • Ten real candidate conversations or emails so tone matches how your recruiters actually screen candidates.
  • The names of recruiters and which requisitions or client accounts each one owns.
  • Your business information (company basics, hours and brand voice), shared during intake.
  • Admin access and API keys for every connected system, shared by adding our team as a user or creating a key you control, never sent by email.
  • One decision-maker who can confirm screening criteria and routing rules before we build.
  • An API key for your own AI model account (for example OpenAI or Google Gemini), created for this build with a spending limit.
The 72-hour rule. Send everything on your checklist, including access, within 72 hours of ordering so your build starts on time.

Expected benefits and how to measure them

  • Can shorten screening calls by covering the basics beforehand.
  • Helps recruiters spend calls on candidates who can actually take the role.
Screening calls with eligible candidates
Ask recruiters to mark each call as eligible or not in the ATS, for a month before and after launch.
Average screening call length
Use call logs or calendar durations to compare screening calls before and after launch.
Time from application to screening call
Compare ATS application dates with call dates, averaged for matching months.

Before you start: Pull a month of applicants and screening calls from your ATS. Note how many calls ended early because of salary, location or work authorization.

These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.

Running costs

One payment covers the build. Running it costs roughly $50 to $250 a month in AI model usage and hosting, on top of your existing ATS and calendar plans. Because candidate screening runs on volume rather than long conversations, usage tends to scale directly with how many candidates apply each month.

AI usage during build and testing is billed to your own accounts, so every provider relationship stays yours.

Custom requirements

If you need something outside the Scope Card, add a note at checkout. You get a written Change Quote, and that work only starts once you accept it. Your original order runs on its normal timeline either way. Larger or bespoke projects go through the Custom AI request form instead.

Request a custom version

Keep it running

For recruitment agencies, monthly maintenance covers monitoring, fixes and change hours for new requisitions, updated screening criteria or a revised salary range as roles open and close. It starts after the 30 days of included support and can be cancelled any month.

$345/mo (5% of the build price a month, includes 3 change hours)

Optional. Starts after the post-launch support period. Cancel any month.

Questions about this product

What does the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment cost, and what's included?

One fixed price, shown next to this page before you order, covers the full build: candidate screening, requisition matching and recruiter routing. It also includes 50 test scenarios, two rounds of changes and a recorded 60-minute handoff session before launch. Express and rush delivery are available at a set uplift if a hiring push is close.

Does the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment screen candidates or hiring clients?

It screens candidates: experience, salary expectations, work authorization, notice period and role fit, then matches them against your open requisitions. It is not built to qualify employer or client leads for your staffing business; that's a different conversation with different questions, so this edition is scoped specifically to the candidate side.

How does the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment match a candidate to the right role?

It compares what a candidate tells it, experience, availability and salary expectations, against the screening criteria you set for each open requisition in your ATS. A candidate who doesn't clearly match any open role is told honestly rather than pushed toward a booking that wastes a recruiter's time on a poor fit.

What should we budget monthly to run the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment?

Roughly $50 to $250 a month in AI model usage and hosting, on top of your existing ATS and calendar plans, billed to your own accounts. Because screening runs on candidate volume rather than long conversations, usage for most recruitment teams tracks directly with how many candidates apply each month.

What does a recruiter see when the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment books a screening call?

A structured candidate profile: experience, salary expectations, work authorization, availability and which requisition they matched, all logged in your ATS before the call happens. The recruiter opens the call already knowing the basics, instead of spending the first ten minutes covering ground the candidate already answered by text or chat.

Can we update screening criteria after the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment goes live?

Yes. Two rounds of changes are included before launch, and monthly maintenance covers updated criteria, new requisitions or a revised salary range once you're live, which matters as roles open and close. Larger changes, like adding a fully new intake process, are scoped separately as a Change Quote.

Can the AI Sales Agent for Recruitment handle candidates for more than one open role at once?

Yes, up to the six workflows included in the build, which is generally enough to cover screening, scheduling, client updates and job ad support across your active requisitions. Each candidate is matched individually against whichever open roles fit their answers, rather than being pushed down a single fixed path.

Screen every candidate the day they apply, not days later.

Order AI Sales Agent for Recruitment and every candidate is screened the day they apply, with matched people booked straight in.
