## Frequently Asked Questions

### How does AiScriba work for recruitment agencies?

Import your applicant spreadsheet or connect your job board, define the screening questions for the role, and the AI phones every candidate. It asks your questions, confirms availability and salary expectations, scores each applicant, and books interviews for the qualified ones. You get a ranked shortlist in your dashboard.

### Can the AI really make outbound calls to candidates?

Yes. Unlike a simple answering service, AiScriba places outbound screening calls at scale. It introduces itself as your agency's recruitment coordinator, retries unanswered numbers at sensible intervals, leaves voicemails, and follows up by SMS so you reach far more applicants than a recruiter could by hand.

### How are candidates scored and ranked?

You set knockout questions (for example, a required certification or shift availability) and weighted scoring questions per job. The AI records each answer, applies your rules, and produces a score plus a short summary for every call, so your shortlist is ranked on the criteria that matter to the client.

### Does it integrate with my ATS or spreadsheet workflow?

The built-in candidate CRM accepts CSV and Excel imports from any job board or ATS export, and you can export scored shortlists back out in one click. Direct integrations with popular applicant tracking systems are available on the Agency and Enterprise plans.

### What happens when a candidate calls back or has questions?

Your inbound line is covered 24/7. The AI recognizes returning candidates, answers questions about the role, pay, and location, updates their application status, and can complete the screening or book an interview right there on the call. Anything it cannot handle is summarized and routed to the right recruiter.

## Sample Conversation

- **AiScriba AI:** Hi, is this Maria? This is Alex, the recruitment coordinator at Northgate Staffing. You applied for our Warehouse Associate role in Riverside. Do you have five minutes for a few quick screening questions?
- **Caller:** Oh, hi! Yes, that's me. Sure, now works.
- **AiScriba AI:** Great, thanks Maria. The role is full-time with a start date in two weeks. Are you available to start then, and do you currently hold a valid forklift certification?
- **Caller:** Yes, I can start in two weeks. I've got my forklift license, it's valid until next year.
- **AiScriba AI:** Perfect, that's exactly what the client needs. The position has day shifts from 6 AM to 2 PM and night shifts from 10 PM to 6 AM. Which do you prefer? And what hourly rate are you looking for?
- **Caller:** Day shift would be ideal. I'm looking for around $21 an hour.
- **AiScriba AI:** That lines up well with the range for this role. You're a strong match, so I'd like to book you an interview with Sarah, the recruiter on this account. She has Thursday at 10 AM or Friday at 2 PM open. Which works better? I'll text you a confirmation with the address right after.
