Screening Interviews_

It has been proven the the part of the recruitment process which takes up the most time, and always absorbs a fair amount of the cost, is the initial screening process. You place your advert or give an assignment to a recruiter and wait for the responses to come in.

Inevitably the majority of the responses which are received will not make it through to the shortlist or interview stage but you must still perform some kind of up-front filtering of the responses to identify suitable candidates. Telephone pre-screening is one solution, as is requiring the candidate to fill out an application form. The former suffers because of the cost in time and resources, the latter because sometimes good candidates do not fill out and return the forms.

The Automated Screening Interview System (ASIS) is designed to fill this exact need in the recruitment process. The ASIS unique adaptive engine allows you to easily generate pre-screening questionnaires. The questionnaire can be designed to gather any type of information from the candidate and does so via the Internet, prior to your first contact. The adaptive feature of the system allows you to ensure that only questions which are relevant, based on the answers given, are put to the candidate.

Question options can be graded based on their acceptability to you and your organisation enabling an automatic first cut of the most unsuitable candidates. All of this happens before first contact with the candidate or their recruitment agency, significantly reducing costs.

A sample ASIS interview which asks typical recruitment questions is provided as part of the basic product offering. If you wish to take your screening and filtering capabilities to the next level contact your account manager for more details.
