To screen applicants and set up structured interviews:

  • Step 10: Run AI Resume Screening — Go to the candidate grid view inside Job Openings. Click Screening > Applied, select a candidate's profile, and click Match Analyze (marked with a red box). The AI will instantly score the resume against your job requirements, tagging the candidate as a High, Medium, or Poor match.

  • Option B: Recorded Online Assessments — Select Recorded to create a video questionnaire. Choose a skills test template and send the link so candidates can record and submit their video responses online.
  • Option C: Live Online Interviews (Agora Integration) — Select Live to launch a virtual video interview. Powered by PayPeople's built-in Agora engine, your team can conduct live, face-to-face video panels directly inside the web browser without needing external apps like Zoom or Google Meet.
