Automated interview software

Automated interview software that screens 100 candidates in the time it takes you to screen 1

Stop spending 75% of your time on first-round screening. Truffle automates video interviews, evaluates candidates against your requirements, and surfaces a ranked shortlist so you can focus on closing top talent.
Interview automation that gives you time back
You screen 10 candidates to find 1 worth talking to. That math doesn't work when you're hiring at scale. Truffle's automated interviews flip the equation. Candidates screen themselves while AI identifies your best matches.
Less time on first-round screening
Automated video interviews replace phone screens. No scheduling, no calendar coordination, no 15-minute calls that go nowhere. Candidates interview on their time, you review when it works for you.
Screening work, just automated
AI evaluates every candidate against your job requirements and scoring criteria. Your shortlist builds itself while you focus on sourcing, closing, and the work that actually requires a human.
Faster time to qualified candidate
From application to shortlist in hours, not days. Automated scheduling, automated evaluation, automated ranking. Move faster than competitors still playing phone tag with candidates.
Collect interviews automatically, 24/7
Create your asynchronous interview once, share the link everywhere. Embed it in your ATS workflow, add it to job postings, or trigger it automatically when candidates hit a pipeline stage. Interviews come in while you sleep, eat lunch, or do actual recruiting work.
AI analyzes every response against your requirements
Truffle's AI reads your job description, understands your criteria, and evaluates every candidate response. You get match percentages, per-question breakdowns, and clear reasoning—not a pile of unwatched videos.
Review candidates in 30 seconds, not 30 minutes
Candidate Shorts pull the top moments from each interview into a 30-second highlight reel. See communication style, personality, and key qualifications at a glance. Perfect for high-volume hiring where you need to move fast.

Where automated interviews make the biggest impact
High-volume hiring
Screening 30-40 candidates per role? Automated interviews handle the volume while AI surfaces your top 3-5 worth meeting. Scale your screening without scaling your team.
Small recruiting teams
One recruiter handling 40+ open reqs? Automated interviews give you back the hours you're spending on phone screens so you can focus on sourcing and closing.
Staffing agencies
Filling roles for multiple clients? Automated interviews let candidates screen themselves while you share video responses directly with hiring managers. No middleman bottleneck.
Remote-first companies
Hiring across timezones? Automated async interviews eliminate scheduling nightmares. Candidates in Singapore record while you're asleep in San Francisco.
Seasonal hiring
Need to ramp up fast for busy season? Automated interviews handle the surge without burning out your team. Process hundreds of candidates in the time it used to take to process dozens.
Entry-level roles
Customer service, sales, support—roles where communication matters but volume is high. Automated interviews screen for soft skills at scale while AI flags your standouts.

Frequently asked questions about automated interviews
What is automated interview software?
Automated interview software handles candidate screening without requiring a recruiter to be present. Candidates record video responses to your questions on their own time, and AI evaluates their answers against your job requirements. Instead of scheduling and conducting dozens of phone screens, you get a ranked shortlist of candidates worth meeting.
Are automated interviews better than phone screens?
For first-round screening, yes. Phone screens require both parties to be available at the same time, which creates scheduling overhead that adds days to your hiring process. Automated interviews eliminate that friction entirely. You also get consistent evaluation (same questions, same criteria) and documentation (recordings and transcripts) that phone screens don't provide.
Do candidates like automated interviews?
Most candidates prefer them to traditional phone screens. They can complete the interview on their own schedule—evenings, weekends, lunch breaks—without having to take time off work or find a quiet place during business hours. Truffle customers typically see 85-90% completion rates for engaged candidates.
What types of roles work best for automated interviews?
Automated interviews work especially well for high-volume roles (customer service, sales, entry-level), positions where communication skills matter (remote roles, client-facing positions), and any role where you're screening more than a handful of candidates. Some teams use them for every role; others reserve them for positions with 10+ applicants.
How do automated video interviews work?
You create an interview with your screening questions, share a link with candidates, and they record responses on their own schedule. Truffle's AI then transcribes each response, evaluates it against your job description and scoring criteria, and generates a match %. Candidates automatically rank from best to worst fit, and you can review the top matches in minutes.
How much time does automated interview software save?
Most recruiters spend 75% of their time on top-of-funnel screening: Reviewing resumes, scheduling calls, conducting phone screens, and following up. Automated interviews can reduce that by 75% or more. Instead of spending 5+ hours phone screening 10 candidates, you can review 10 candidates in 30 minutes using AI scores and Candidate Shorts.
Do automated interviews replace recruiters?
No—it frees recruiters to do higher-value work. Instead of spending hours on administrative screening, recruiters can focus on sourcing, building relationships, selling candidates on the opportunity, and closing. AI handles the repetitive evaluation work; humans make the final decisions and do the work that requires human judgment.
How do I get started with automated interview software?
With Truffle, you can set up your first automated interview in under 10 minutes. Paste your job description, select your screening questions (or let AI suggest them), customize with your branding, and share the link. No enterprise onboarding, no implementation project, no waiting.
