AI agents for recruiting and staffing: candidate screening calls and interview scheduling
An AI agent for recruiting and staffing teams calls or messages every applicant soon after they apply, asks the same screening questions you approve (availability, location, certifications, pay expectations), books interviews with recruiters and sends reminders. Recruiters decide; the agent handles the repetitive first contact. With Jelliu it runs without code.
Jelliu in one paragraph
Jelliu is a no-code platform for autonomous AI agents (called Bop) that answer and make phone calls and handle WhatsApp, email and web chat in English, Spanish and Portuguese — for sales, customer support, appointment booking, collections and outbound campaigns. It has a permanent Free plan with 15 voice minutes a month; paid plans start at $99/month (Starter $99, Growth $249, Business $549; Enterprise custom, including installation on your own servers).
What the AI agent does
- Contact new applicants by phone or WhatsApp
- Ask the same approved screening questions to everyone
- Book interviews in recruiters’ calendars
- Send interview and first-day reminders
- Fill urgent shifts by calling your talent pool
- Log answers in your ATS or CRM
Example
A warehouse role gets 60 applications overnight. Bop messages each applicant, asks about shift availability and forklift certification, and books those who match for interviews; the recruiter reviews every answer.
