Replacing phone screens

Retire the phone screen. Keep what it was for.

A phone screen checks the basics and gets a feel for a person. LessRounds does both, by link, for every candidate at once, and writes it all down.

The problem

The same fifteen minutes, forty times a week.

Phone screens repeat the same questions: tell me about yourself, why this role, notice period, salary. The answers live in someone’s notes, if anywhere.

They also cost two calendars. Rescheduling, no-shows and time zones make a fifteen-minute call take days to happen.

How LessRounds helps

What changes.

Spoken, like a call

Candidates talk, the AI listens and follows up. No typing essays.

Written down

A transcript and recording for every conversation, searchable.

Scored the same way

Every candidate measured against the same skills and pass mark.

No calendar

It happens when the candidate is ready.

Sample interview

Questions to start from.

Use them as written, or let the AI draft its own from your job description.

  1. 01Give me a quick tour of your experience, most recent first.
  2. 02What drew you to this role?
  3. 03Tell me about a piece of work you’d want us to know about.

Screening questions

Checks before the interview.

Answers show on each candidate’s page. They aren’t scored.

  • Notice period (Short text)
  • Expected salary range (Short text)
  • Eligible to work here? (Yes / No)

Limits

What it won’t do here.

  • LessRounds doesn’t phone candidates. The interview happens in a browser, on a laptop or phone, from a link you send.

Questions

Is this an AI phone screen?

It does the job of one, but in the browser rather than over a phone line. Candidates open a link on their phone or laptop and talk to the AI there.

What does it cost compared with a phone screen?

A 30-minute screen, with scheduling and notes, costs about $20 of recruiter time at $40 an hour. A LessRounds interview is $5, plus a few minutes to read the results. See the pricing math.
