Interview scheduling calls
Recruiters lose more time to scheduling than to screening.
The scarce resource in hiring is not applications, it is the recruiter hours spent chasing people to agree a time. Calls go unanswered because the number is unknown, the callback lands mid-interview, and the slot that was free on Tuesday is gone by the time anyone confirms. An agent that calls, screens and books removes the chasing.
At a glance
| FrontivaAI | Recruiter doing it manually | |
|---|---|---|
| Calls made | As many as the list, in parallel | One at a time |
| Time of day | Whenever the candidate is likely to answer | Office hours |
| Screening before booking | Experience, notice period, expectations captured | On the call, if it happens |
| Interview booked | Into your calendar during the call | After a round of messages |
| Confirmation and reminder | WhatsApp, automatic | Manual |
| Record of the conversation | Transcript and summary per candidate | Notes, if any |
What it asks before booking a slot
Only what you configure - typically current experience, notice period, expected compensation and availability. The answers land with the candidate record, so the recruiter walks into the interview already briefed rather than starting cold.
Where it fits in bulk hiring
High-volume roles are the clearest case: BPO intakes, field and warehouse roles, campus drives. Hundreds of first calls do not need a recruiter, and the ones worth a human conversation are the ones that pass screening.
What it does not do
Being clear about this saves an argument later.
- It does not assess a candidate or make a hiring decision
- It does not connect to your ATS - candidates and interviews live in the FrontivaAI dashboard
- Only English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi and Bengali - which still matters for pan-India hiring
- It will not chase somebody who has said no
Frequently asked questions
Can it call candidates, not just answer them?
Yes. Outbound calling from a list is how recruitment usually uses it, with the same transcript and confirmation trail.
Does it decide who gets an interview?
No. It captures the answers you asked for and books the slots. The judgement stays with your recruiters.
Will it integrate with our ATS?
Not today. Candidate records and interview slots live in the dashboard, exportable at any time.
Which languages?
English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi and Bengali, including Hinglish and switching mid-call. not Gujarati and Punjabi.
Does it reduce interview no-shows?
It sends a WhatsApp confirmation and a reminder, which is the main lever available.
Ask for a test number, or book a demo.
