Tips & Best Practices
Get the most out of Recruiting Mode
Prepare Your Role Brief
Upload or paste the job description before the call so the AI can tailor probing questions and selling points to the specific role.
Let the Candidate Finish
Wait for the candidate to complete their answer before triggering AI. Partial transcriptions lead to less accurate suggestions.
