AI Screening & Evaluation
Screen every applicant, interview the right ones
Sourcing gives you more candidates than any team can interview. Zinterview scores each one against the role at every step: a resume fitment score to filter, an AI interview to evaluate, and weighted skill scoring to rank, so your time goes to the strongest applicants.
In short
AI screening is how Zinterview narrows a large applicant pool to a ranked shortlist: it scores each resume against the job description, runs a structured AI interview, and evaluates every candidate on the same weighted skills, so the strongest applicants rise to the top on evidence rather than a recruiter's first impression.
How it works
From applicant pile to ranked shortlist
Score resumes against the role
As candidates are added to an opening, Zinterview scores each resume against the job description, so you can filter to the promising ones without reading every CV from every sourcing channel.
Interview at scale, automatically
Move a batch into the AI interview round. Every candidate gets a structured, monitored interview on their own schedule, no coordinating calendars and no interviewer time per candidate.
Rank on weighted skills
Each interview is scored on the skills you weighted for the opening, producing a ranked shortlist backed by evidence, so your team spends its time only on the strongest applicants.
Interview modes
Two ways to run the interview
Choose the mode that fits the role. Both run in the same structured, monitored environment and produce the same evidence-backed report.
Same questions for everyone
Standard AI interview
Every candidate answers the same predefined set of questions, so results are directly comparable side by side. The AI still asks relevant follow-ups when an answer needs one.
- High-volume roles
- Strict, comparable scoring
- Consistency across a large pool
Dynamic, adaptive questions
AI Mode interview
The AI generates most of the questions on the fly, adapting to each candidate's answers. Supply your own must-ask questions and it asks those first, then fills the rest up to your total-questions limit.
- Senior or specialised roles
- Probing depth over uniformity
- Following a candidate's reasoning
Capabilities
Screening that gets sharper, not slower, at scale
The point of screening is to spend human time well. Each capability removes a place where good candidates get missed or bad ones get through.
Filter before you interview
A resume fitment score ranks each applicant against the opening's job description, so you can move the promising candidates into an interview and set the rest aside without reading every resume by hand.
Fairness
Every candidate measured the same way
AI screening is only worth it if it's fair. Zinterview applies the same questions, skills, and weights to every candidate for a role, and the score is a signal for a person, not the final decision.
The same criteria for everyone
Each candidate for an opening is scored against the same skills and weights, so no one is judged on a different bar.
Rated on defined skills
Scores come from the skills you set for the role, with the reasoning shown, not from an unexplained overall impression.
Consistent, never fatigued
The candidate interviewed first and the candidate interviewed last are evaluated with the same attention and standard.
A shortlist, not a verdict
Ranking narrows the field for your team. A person always decides who advances and who gets hired.
