AI candidate screening

Screen every applicant
before your recruiter picks up the phone.

A1RO chats with each applicant the moment they apply. It reads their CV, explains the role, asks only what is missing, and collects documents where the role needs them. Your recruiters start with people who already know the job and still want it.

01
Share your screening link

Add a role and put its link on your job ad. Every applicant who clicks it is met by the bot straight away, day or night.

02
The bot screens each applicant

It reads the CV, explains the shift pattern, location and requirements, and asks only about what the CV does not show.

03
You review who is left

Your admin panel shows each screened candidate with their answers, CV, documents and the full conversation.

What it handles

The first conversation, done properly every time.

High-volume roles draw a hundred or more applications each. Most of the early calls are with people who are not eligible, not available, or did not understand the job.

Reads the CV first

Name, contact details, experience and licences are taken from the CV, so candidates are not asked for what they already sent.

Works from your job description

The bot works out the real requirements of the role and checks each one, ignoring the perks and filler.

Honest about the role

Shift pattern, location and physical demands are explained up front, so people who do not want the job drop out before your recruiter is involved.

Location-aware

Candidates are matched to roles they can realistically travel to, or to roles with accommodation.

Collects documents

Where a role needs a licence or certificate, the candidate uploads it during the chat.

Into your ATS/CRM

Screened candidates can be sent on with their CV, documents and the conversation attached.

Frequently asked questions
How does the AI candidate screening work?+

You add a job role to A1RO and share a screening link with candidates. The AI bot chats with each candidate, asks role-specific questions, collects documents where the role needs them, and records the answers. You log into your admin panel and see screened, ready-to-review candidates, with no CV pile and no phone screen backlog.

Does the AI decide who gets hired?+

No. The bot gathers information and explains the role. Every hiring decision is made by your recruiters, who see the full conversation and documents for each candidate.

Do I need technical skills to use it?+

No. A1RO is built for operations managers and HR teams, not developers. Adding a job takes two minutes, and your admin panel shows everything clearly.

Can candidates use it on a phone?+

Yes. Most operative candidates apply from a phone, so the whole screening works in a mobile browser with nothing to download.

Does it work with our ATS?+

Screened candidates, with their CV, documents and the conversation, can be sent into your ATS/CRM. Tell us which system you use and we will confirm what is involved before you commit.

What does it cost?+

A one-off €249 setup fee, then €149 a month for 1 active role, €299 for up to 3, or €599 for up to 10. There is no charge per candidate, and plans are monthly. Agencies with more roles are priced on request.
