Employers are increasingly adopting AI-powered interview tools that simulate live, two-way screener calls using synthetic voices to streamline hiring.
Startups such as Apriora, HeyMilo AI, and Ribbon report rapid uptake of their real-time AI interview software, which allows candidates to engage with an AI recruiter that asks follow-up questions, probes key skills, and provides structured feedback to hiring managers.
At Propel Impact, a Canadian social impact investing nonprofit, the shift to AI screener interviews was driven by the need to scale up the hiring process efficiently.
"Job candidates converse with an AI recruiter that asks follow-up questions, probes key skills and delivers structured feedback to hiring managers," highlighting the interactive nature of these tools.
While these AI interview tools promise greater transparency and fairness in candidate evaluation, concerns are mounting about the fairness and accuracy of their scoring methods.
"While AI interview tools in theory promise transparency and fairness, they could soon face more scrutiny over how they score candidates," signaling potential regulatory and ethical challenges ahead.
As adoption grows, the balance between efficiency and equitable candidate assessment remains a critical issue for employers and technology providers alike.
