FAQ

Hiring Assistant, answered.

How quickly does Candid contact job applicants?
Candid calls or texts applicants within minutes of applying, 24/7, including evenings and weekends. Reaching candidates while interest is high is the single biggest driver of more completed interviews and more hires from the same applicant pool.
Does Candid work with our applicant tracking system (ATS)?
Yes. Candid plugs into the systems you already use, including PointClickCare, Apploi, Paylocity, Hireology, SmartRecruiters, and UKG, and pushes interview results, scores, recordings, and status updates back into your ATS where supported, so recruiters stay in their existing workflow.
Does Candid make hiring decisions?
No. Candid handles outreach, structured screening, and scoring against your must-have requirements, but recruiters and hiring managers stay in control of every hiring decision. Candid surfaces the evidence, credentials, availability, transcripts, and recordings, so your team decides with better information.
Is AI phone screening fair and consistent?
Every applicant gets the same structured interview, scored against the same role criteria, which makes screening more consistent and bias-aware than ad-hoc phone calls. You define the questions, knockout rules, and scoring, and review the evidence behind each result.
