Structured AI interviews for staffing and recruitment agencies

Your margin lives in how fast and how well you shortlist. Hubert screens every applicant the moment they apply, so your recruiters place more candidates, across more clients, without adding headcount or compromising on quality of hire.

The staffing reality

Agency hiring is a volume game, and speed often decides who wins

Agencies compete on two things at once: filling the client's role before anyone else, and filling it with someone who stays. Every hour a recruiter spends reading CVs and chasing phone screens is an hour not spent placing candidates or winning new business. And when volume spikes, quality is the first thing to slip, which shows up later as attrition and clawbacks.

Hubert screens every applicant the moment they apply, by text or voice, on their phone, in their language. Recruiters get a ranked, scored shortlist in the ATS they already use, so they spend their time on candidates and clients, not admin. At ManpowerGroup, screening time dropped 67%.

How Hubert works for agency hiring

Hubert replaces CV screening and early phone screens with one structured AI interview that every candidate completes at their own pace, on any device. Your recruiters start the day with a ranked shortlist, not an inbox and a cold list to call.

01

Every candidate completes a structured AI interview

Candidates answer role-relevant questions built around the competencies each client role demands. The experience is simple to complete, with no app download or account creation required, so completion rates stay high even at volume.

02

Every applicant is assessed against the same criteria

Hubert uses structured, competency-based interviews with consistent scoring criteria. Every candidate is evaluated the same way across every desk and every client, so shortlist quality doesn't depend on which recruiter picked up the role.

03

Recruiters receive a ranked shortlist directly in their ATS

Scored candidate summaries land in your existing workflow. No more trawling through every CV, no more coordinating phone screens for every applicant, and more time to place the best candidates and grow accounts.

Legally defensible by design

Responsible AI you can put in front of your clients

Hubert's screening model is deterministic, which means fair repeatable scoring, every time. That's not just a technical detail. It means every shortlisting decision is auditable, every assessment criterion is documented, and every candidate can understand how they were evaluated. For an agency, that is both a compliance safeguard and a commercial differentiator: you can show clients exactly how candidates were assessed, and stand behind it in an audit. This is what EU AI Act compliance looks like in practice.
