AI screening · Automated shortlist

Automated candidate shortlist built from real interviews

An automated candidate shortlist is only as good as what it is built on. Shortlists ranked from resume keywords reward good writing and the right buzzwords, not the candidates who would actually do the job well.

InterviewAgent.ai builds an automated candidate shortlist from real screening interviews. Every applicant is interviewed, scored on a rubric, and ranked, so the shortlist reflects how people answered role questions, with a transcript and highlights behind every ranking. Recruiters review the shortlist and make the final decision, and the whole process stays consented, AI-disclosed, and bias-audited for EEOC and NYC Local Law 144.

Why it works

What your team gets with automated shortlist

Built on interviews

The shortlist ranks how candidates actually answered, not how their resume reads, so the people at the top earned it in conversation.

Evidence behind every rank

Each ranking links to a rubric score and transcript, so recruiters can see exactly why a candidate landed where they did.

Reviewed, not auto-decided

Recruiters review the ranked shortlist and decide who advances, so the automation surfaces the best without making the call.

What it handles

Interviewed, scored and shortlisted on autopilot

The agent invites each applicant, runs a role-tailored screening interview by voice or video, asks smart follow-ups, scores every answer against your rubric, and advances the strongest candidates into a ranked shortlist for your recruiters to review.

Why InterviewAgent.ai

One agent that runs the whole first round

Not a one-way video tool, not a six-figure assessment suite, and not a staffing agency. Interview, score, rank and hand off in one place, shaped to the roles and rubric you already hire on.

Interviews every applicant

A role-tailored screening interview runs by voice or video, with smart follow-ups, on the candidate's schedule. Applicants consent and are told they are speaking with AI, so no qualified person waits days for a first call.

Scores to your rubric

Every answer is scored against the same structured rubric, with transcripts and highlights, so candidates are compared consistently and the scoring stays bias-audited against EEOC guidance and NYC Local Law 144.

Ranks the shortlist

The strongest candidates are advanced into a ranked shortlist your recruiters review. The agent never auto-hires or rejects, it only surfaces who to talk to next, and your team makes every decision.

Good questions

Questions about automated shortlist

By rubric scores from each candidate structured interview, weighted to the criteria you define for the role. Every ranking links to the transcript so recruiters can verify and adjust before deciding who advances.

Absolutely. The ranked shortlist is a starting point for human review, not a verdict. Recruiters read the transcripts, weigh the scores, and make the final decision themselves.
