INTERVIEW BUDDY RECRUIT · FOR EMPLOYERS
AI screening interviews for Australian employers
Stop spending hours on first-round phone screens. Invite candidates, let a lifelike virtual interviewer ask everyone the same questions, then read the transcripts and evidence and decide who to meet. A person always makes the decision.
Set up a role in minutes
Pick a question set (customer service, hospitality, admin, sales, contact centre, graduate) or write your own. Choose the skills to assess and any screening questions, such as work rights.
Invite candidates
Add candidates one by one or paste a list. Each gets an email with their own secure link. No app, no account.
They interview with Sarah or James
A lifelike virtual interviewer asks every candidate the same questions out loud, with one short follow-up when an answer is thin. Candidates answer by voice or typing, any time before the closing date.
You review the evidence and decide
Read the full transcript and an evidence summary for each skill, with the candidate's own words quoted. Shortlist, hold or reject. A person always makes the decision.
Fair by design
Same core questions for every candidate. The summary judges what was said, not accent, grammar or delivery. Nothing is rejected automatically.
Feedback for every candidate
Each candidate gets a short, kind feedback report after the interview, so even unsuccessful applicants leave with something useful and a good impression of you.
Built for Australia
Australian voices and spelling, data stored in Australia, and audio never kept: we store a text transcript only.
Adjustments built in
Candidates can choose typed answers, and ask for more time or a person instead. You approve adjustments in one click.
Light-touch integrity notes
Leaving the tab or pasting text is noted for your judgement, never an automatic fail. No face scanning, no video recording.
A real virtual interviewer
Not a chat box: a 3D interviewer who speaks, listens and lip-syncs, with captions. Candidates who drop out can reopen their link and carry on.
Only completed interviews count. Invoiced monthly in Australian dollars. Need more? Talk to us about larger volumes.
What is an AI screening interview?
It is a first-round interview run by a virtual interviewer instead of a recruiter on the phone. Candidates answer the same questions in their own time, and you review a transcript and an evidence summary before deciding who to meet.
Does the AI decide who gets the job?
No. Interview Buddy Recruit summarises the evidence in each answer against the skills you chose and quotes the candidate's own words. A person on your team reads the transcript and records the decision. Nothing is rejected automatically.
Is it fair to candidates with accents or disabilities?
The summary assesses only the content of answers, and is told to ignore accent, grammar, filler words and transcription slips. Candidates can type instead of speaking and can ask for more time or a person instead. You should still review every transcript yourself.
Do you record video or audio?
No. Speech is turned into text as the candidate talks and the audio is not stored. There is no video recording and no face analysis. You see a written transcript.
Where is candidate data stored and for how long?
In Australia. Results are kept for 1 year, then deleted automatically, and you can erase a candidate's data at any time.
What do candidates need?
A phone or computer with a modern browser and, if they want to speak their answers, a microphone. There is nothing to install and no account to create.
Is Interview Buddy Recruit linked to Interview Buddy practice?
They are kept separate. Practice interviews are private and never shared with employers, and your campaign questions never appear in practice.
