Amplify Screening: Quick Start Guide

Amplify Screening uses AI to handle your candidate screening process from start to finish, saving you time, keeping things consistent, and giving candidates a professional, engaging experience. This guide gives you the essentials for getting up and running fast.

 

Setting Up Amplify Screening

To make Amplify Screening work, you’ll need three key components in Bullhorn Automation:

  1. Add Questions Automation: Automatically generates screening questions for new jobs based on the job description.

    • Use the “BH Screening Agent – Generate Screening Questions” blueprint to set this up quickly.

  2. Screener Engagement: Runs the AI chat and voice screening process, using your generated questions.

  3. Invite to Screening Automation: Sends candidates an invitation to complete the screening.

    • Use the “BH Screening Agent – Invite to Screen” blueprint to set this up quickly.

For step-by-step setup instructions, see:

The Screening Process

  1. A new job is added in Bullhorn ATS.

  2. The Add Questions automation creates a tailored set of screening questions.

  3. Candidates are invited automatically or manually to take the screening.

    • Screening starts with a short chat, followed by an AI Voice Screener for qualified candidates.

    • Candidates can also ask the screener questions, which are answered based on your job description, selected fields, or a custom FAQ.

Getting Your Results

When the screening is complete, you’ll receive a detailed report that includes:

  • A screening score

  • A summary of the conversation

  • Analysis of answers and improvement areas

  • Top skills, including ones not in the resume

  • Full transcript

The report is emailed to recipients you choose, and can also be saved as a note in Bullhorn ATS.

If a candidate doesn’t complete the screening, Bullhorn ATS adds a 'Virtual Screening – Incomplete' note with the transcript showing where they stopped. If no questions are answered, an 'Incomplete' note is added without a transcript.

Tracking Screening Metrics

Track your screening activity in the Screening Dashboard in Bullhorn Analytics for the most complete view of performance and trends, including latest screens, completed screens, and screening minutes per day.

You can also view basic metrics in Bullhorn Automation by opening your Screener Engagement and selecting View Metrics.
