The Challenge

The firm had over 1,000 Chartered Accountant candidates to screen and evaluate, and a small recruiting team without the hours to do it. At ~10 minutes per screening call and about 4 hours of calls a day, working through the list would have taken a 2-to-3 person team three to four weeks of dedicated calling before a single evaluation was written up.

The Solution

HireBound ran the screening with Voice AI on a 24/7 schedule, adapting its questions on each call rather than reading a script. The full pool was screened and evaluated in 48 hours.

Each candidate was assessed across five parameters: technical competence, communication, motivation and interest, experience relevance, and culture fit. Rather than a single pass or fail, every candidate carried a score on each dimension, a profile to read instead of a verdict to trust.

Averaging across the five produced one comparable figure per candidate, and the 45 who cleared were surfaced as the ready shortlist.
