AI interviewer

A real first-round interview with every candidate you pick.

The AI interviewer runs a spoken conversation whenever the candidate is free, asks about each requirement in your job description and follows up on thin answers. You get a scored report for every interview.

What is an AI interviewer?

The first-round phone screen, run by AI.

An AI interviewer is software that holds the first-round screening conversation with a candidate, the call a recruiter would normally make. It asks the questions, listens to the answers and follows up, then writes up what it heard.

VeraHire's interviewer works by voice. It checks your job's requirements one at a time and ties every call to something the candidate said. It doesn't make the hire. Your team reads the report and decides who moves on.

You stay in control

You decide who gets interviewed, and what it asks.

By score, everyone, or by hand

Invite everyone above a resume score, the whole pool, or candidates you pick one by one. Autopilot mode sends the invites for you.

Questions built from your job

The interview follows the requirements in your job description, and you can add your own questions and focus areas.

Recording and transcript on every interview

Listen back to any answer, read the full transcript and share the report with the hiring manager.

How it works

From invite to scored report in four steps.

  1. 1

    Set the requirements

    Paste the job description. VeraHire pulls out the criteria and you check them before anything goes out.

  2. 2

    Invite candidates

    By email, or by SMS outside the US and China, with an invitation the AI writes for you. Send them by hand or let Autopilot mode do it.

  3. 3

    They talk to the AI interviewer

    A voice conversation whenever it suits them. No app, no portal login.

  4. 4

    Read the scored report

    Each requirement marked met or not, with the answer behind it. Candidates are ranked as interviews finish.

What you get back

Every requirement, with the answer that proves it.

The interviewer never judges whether someone seems good overall. It checks each requirement on its own, and every met or unmet call points to a line in the transcript, so you can jump to the moment that matters.

Questions

What teams and candidates ask.

Ask us anything else
Got an interview invite from VeraHire?

It's a short voice conversation, on your schedule. Open the link in your invite whenever you're ready and the AI interviewer will ask about your experience for the role. It's voice only unless the company asked for video on that role. A person at the company reviews your interview and makes the decision.

Who decides who gets hired?

Your team does. The AI interviewer runs the conversation and writes the report. It never makes the hire.

Is it on video?

Only when you want it. Interviews are voice by default, in English. Video is available on request: once we switch it on for your account, you choose which jobs require the camera, and the recording sits next to the transcript in the report. No face analysis either way. Every interview is recorded and transcribed.

Can I change the questions?

Yes. The interview starts from the requirements in your job description. You can edit them and add your own questions and focus areas.

What does it cost?

$7 per interview, after 30 free. The free trial includes 30 AI interviews and 300 resume screens, no credit card. Monthly plans lower the per-interview rate; see the pricing page.

Has it been checked for bias?

Yes, by an independent auditor. Joellie AI audited the resume screening and interview analysis to the NYC Local Law 144 standard. Read about the audit.

In their words

What a hiring team and a candidate said.

“VeraHire took only about 30 minutes to set up. The quality and insight from the interviews was better than we expected…we experienced immediate benefit from the detailed assessment of a high volume of candidates, both increasing the number and quality of individuals moving to the next stage of our process.”
Phil OdellaHead of Operations, Prialto

“The questions were surprisingly good and helped me reflect on a few things I hadn't articulated before.”
