AI Voice Agent for Staffing & Recruiting — Screen Candidates & Book Interviews, 24/7
High applicant volume and busy clients mean recruiters can't catch every call. Dottie answers candidates and clients alike, pre-screens applicants, captures their details, and schedules interviews — so no placement slips through.
Why staffing and recruiting firms lose candidates — and leave shifts uncovered
A staffing and recruiting firm lives on the phone — candidates applying, clients with urgent reqs, and workers already on assignment calling about shifts. Recruiters are in interviews all day, so those calls pile up, and every missed one is a lost placement or an uncovered shift going to the firm that answered first.
of clients expect open roles filled within 48 hours — many the same day
of candidates have quit on a recruiter who was too slow to respond
Recruiters are in interviews and meetings and can't answer every call.
Strong candidates move on if no one responds quickly.
Client reqs are urgent — a missed call can mean a lost placement.
Manual phone screening and interview scheduling eats recruiter time.
One line for both sides of your business
Staffing and recruiting run on two very different phone lines. Dottie answers both — the candidates building your pipeline and the workers and clients keeping your placements covered.
Building your candidate pipeline
Inbound applicants and prospects — answered and pre-screened the moment they call, even after hours.
- Inquiring about open job opportunities
- Returning a recruiter's call about an application
- Asking about interview timing or next steps
- Questions after completing job onboarding
Keeping placements covered
The time-sensitive workforce calls that can't wait for business hours — captured and routed to your on-call staffing manager.
- A worker calling out sick before a shift
- Running late to an assignment
- Can't see or access their schedule
- Employment verification requests
- Urgent same-day request to fill an open shift
