Screening Rounds

Candidate screening. Ask beyond the CV.

Collect the details and role-specific answers your team needs before the next conversation, in a screening round candidates complete in their own time.

For teams combining practical eligibility details with structured first-round questions.

Different questions need different kinds of answers.

A notice period is a fact to record. A role question needs a response to evaluate. Screening rounds keep those purposes distinct while gathering both in one candidate journey.
