AI Phone for Recruiting and Admissions. AI for candidate screening phone calls, interview booked

AI Phone is AI for candidate screening phone calls that stays on your side of the line: it answers the recruiting or admissions number on the first ring, asks the questions you set (your AI Knowledge rules and AI Booking questions) and writes the answers on the record. It never scores, ranks or decides; your recruiters read the answers.

AI for candidate screening phone calls: every call with its outcome, transcript and summary, real Zanus AI screen

All calls

Every candidate call is kept with its length, outcome and language, and the transcript and summary are one click away for the recruiter.

Easy setupSet up everything just by talking to Lisa AISee how ›

You“Ask every caller the shift and the location, then book the interview.”

Lisa“Every interview booking on the phone now asks the shift and the location first, then offers the recruiter's free slots. Apply?”

You talk. Lisa sets it up. Applied only on your yes.

How Recruiting and Admissions use it

At 6 PM a line cook calls about the weekend posting, answers the three questions you set and books Tuesday's interview.

A parent asks about financial aid; the AI says a counselor answers that and takes the message with her number read back.

A candidate calls to move tomorrow's interview; the AI tells the recruiter who is calling and why before the call connects.

REAL AI - the whole Front Office is AI, not old software with an AI button.

What’s included

Keep your number: forward your existing line to your Front Office line and the AI answers immediately, no porting needed. Port the number in when you decide; we handle it with the carrier
A local number in your area, or your own number ported in
Answers on the first ring, 24/7, 365; your business hours only decide when people are reachable
Human-like voice: you choose the voice and the persona per function, greeting, sales, support, booking, callbacks
Receptionist style, no phone menu: the caller just talks in any of 40 languages; the AI detects the language on the first sentence and switches the whole call
Departments you define, sales, support, booking, billing, technical…, each with its own policy: AI first, operator first, or AI only; each with its own AI specialist when no human is free
Directory of your operators with per-day working hours, languages, the nicknames callers use, vacations and temp-worker expiry
Transfers announce the caller and the reason; your person accepts before the call is connected; the call is pulled back before a mobile voicemail can swallow it
Language routing: a Spanish-speaking caller reaches your Spanish-speaking operator first
Hold music with spoken updates; when a person is unavailable the AI says the honest line you wrote for that time of day
Takes messages with the callback number read back and confirmed, delivered to that person's own inbox
Books appointments live from your calendar during the call; captures the e-mail letter by letter; saves the lead
Every fact from your approved knowledge, prices only from your catalog; with no source it says so and offers a person
Robocalls and telemarketers get one polite goodbye and stay away from your team
Off hours your way: full AI service, take-a-message only, or voicemail; holidays and special closures with the message you write
Every call transcribed into the customer's record with a summary; call log with transcripts, exportable; the morning briefing reads it for you

On the call

What AI for candidate screening phone calls does on your line

First ring, any hour

Candidates call after a shift or at lunch. The AI answers at once, in the caller's language, from your postings and program pages, with no hold queue and no menu to sit through.

Your questions, asked once

With AI Booking added, each interview type carries the questions you set, such as the shift, the site or a licence, and the AI asks them before it offers a free slot.

Answers written on the record

Every call is saved with its transcript and summary, and new callers become new contacts, so the recruiter reads what the candidate said before calling back.

People where people belong

Pay, aid, visas, accommodations and decisions go to the colleague you name: the AI tells them who is calling and why before the call connects, or takes the message.

Ready in 2 minutes

Set up the recruiting answering service in 2 minutes

Forward the line

Forward the number on your postings to the Front Office. From then on the AI picks up every candidate call, with no porting and no hardware.

Lisa reads your postings

She reads your careers or admissions pages and asks your hours, your languages and which roles or programs callers ask about most.

Name who takes what

Tell her which recruiter or counselor takes which calls and which topics always go to a person. She shows each change before and after.

Questions & answers

AI Phone for Recruiting and Admissions: questions & answers

Can AI handle candidate screening phone calls?

It can ask the questions you set and write the answers down. AI Phone answers from your approved information, and with AI Booking it asks your interview questions before it offers a slot. It does not score or rank a caller: the answers wait on the record for a recruiter to read.

What does the AI say when a caller asks about pay?

Only what you approved. If pay is a topic for people, the AI says a recruiter answers it and either transfers the call, announced first, or takes a message with the callback number read back digit by digit.

Can the AI answer the recruiting line after hours?

Yes. AI phone answering for recruiters keeps going outside your hours: you choose full AI service, take-a-message only or voicemail, so a candidate calling at 9 PM still hears the requirements and can book. Every call is saved with its transcript and summary for the morning.

Can we keep the phone number printed on our postings?

Yes. Forward the line you already publish to your Front Office number and candidate phone line answering starts at once, with no porting. A new local number is also available for a branch, a campus or a hiring campaign.

Can a caller ask for a specific recruiter?

Yes. The AI routes the call to the named colleague, ringing their computer, phone app or mobile in the order they chose. If the recruiter is in an interview, it takes a message or tells the caller when they will be back.
