Screening Agent Enablement

You need Bullhorn Automation Agents Edition to make use of the screening agent.

This article outlines the enablement steps for the screening agent.

Provide Configuration Information

You'll be asked to provide some information to ensure the screening agent is setup to your specification. This will include information such as:

• What you'd like to call the agent

• The number of questions you'd like to be automatically created for the screening agent

  Three to five questions is the recommended number as it usually results in the screening taking roughly 10 minutes. Candidates are less likely to want to do the screening if it takes longer than this.

• Default screening questions

  Create questions that warm up a candidate, such as "Can you tell us why you're interested in this position?".

• Post-screening questions

  These generally include questions that aren't critical but are good to know, such as "Are you willing to relocate for the right opportunity?".

• Additional context to better answer candidates' questions

  Create a list of commonly asked questions and provide answers for each to provide more information about the company.
