Phone call cost = candidates × minutes per call ÷ 60 × hourly cost. The LessRounds figure adds interview fees ($5 for each interview of up to 30 minutes) to the cost of the time spent reviewing each interview, at the same hourly cost. It leaves out the 100 free credits you get when you sign up, so it shows what a normal month costs. You can change every number the calculator uses.
Annual salary plus benefits and overheads, divided by working hours in a year. If you don’t know, use salary divided by 2,000 as a rough floor.
Because it’s real time. Emails back and forth, rescheduling and no-shows often take as long as the call.
Start with 100 free credits, enough for about 20 interviews. No credit card or sales call needed.
