3 Recruitment and Staffing AI Agents, Live in Production.
3 live agents automate recruitment and staffing within human resources. 1 runs on a schedule and 2 run on demand. Each one publishes the inputs it needs, the steps it works through and what it hands back.
-
Candidate Acknowledgment
Reply to every applicant honestly — where they are, when they will hear, and a real reason where the answer is no. Every draft is approved individually.
-
Interview Guide Builder
Turn a job description into a structured interview — competencies drawn from the role, questions that produce evidence, and an explicit list of what must not be asked.
-
Resume Screening
Score a candidate against a job description using weighted criteria you set, with a breakdown showing where the score came from.
Screening against stated criteria, and naming what must not be asked
Recruitment volume creates two problems that are usually treated as unavoidable. The first is silence: most applicants hear nothing, because writing a real response to two hundred people is not feasible and a templated rejection feels worse than none. The cost lands on the employer brand and is paid slowly. The second is inconsistency in how candidates are assessed. Screening criteria live in a hiring manager’s head, so two reviewers rank the same CV differently and neither can explain their reasoning afterwards. Interviews compound it — questions are improvised, so different candidates are assessed on different things, and occasionally on something that should never have been asked at all.
These agents make the assessment explicit and the response feasible. Resume Screening scores a candidate against a job description using weighted criteria you set, with a breakdown showing where the score came from — the breakdown being what turns a score into a reviewable decision. Interview Guide Builder turns a job description into a structured interview: competencies drawn from the role, questions written to produce evidence, and an explicit list of what must not be asked. That last output exists because the questions that create legal and ethical exposure are usually asked casually, in rapport-building, by someone with no intention of discriminating. Candidate Acknowledgment then replies to every applicant honestly — where they are, when they will hear, and a real reason where the answer is no — with every draft approved individually, because a rejection is a message to a person and deserves to have been read by one.
What this moves
- Candidates who receive a real answer
- Every applicant gets their status, when they will hear, and an actual reason where the answer is no, drafted for individual approval rather than left in silence.
- Screening decisions that can be explained
- Scores are produced against weighted criteria you set, with a breakdown showing where the score came from — so a decision can be defended rather than asserted.
- Interview questions that produce evidence
- Competencies are drawn from the role and questions written to elicit evidence, with an explicit list of what must not be asked.

Where recruitment and staffing fits in human resources
Leave, expenses, notice periods and benefits questions arrive daily and the answers are already in the handbook. Employees ask a person because searching a PDF is worse than asking — an agent fixes that side of it.

Deploying recruitment and staffing agents
These run as-is against the inputs listed above. Most deployments adapt one — a different source system, a different tolerance, a different approval path. The first call establishes which.
