01The problem it removes
Applications are reviewed under time pressure, candidate updates slip, and interviews require repeated scheduling messages. The result is inconsistent screening and unnecessary waiting for candidates and hiring teams.
Built for · A hiring manager or small HR function running multiple roles without a full recruiting team.

04How it works
01 Screen
Every application is summarised against the same rubric, with evidence quoted — no auto-rejection.
02 Shortlist
A human reviews the summaries and decides who advances. The assistant never rejects anyone on its own.
03 Schedule
It coordinates times directly with candidates against real interviewer availability.
04 Communicate
Every candidate gets a clear status update at each stage — the thing most pipelines fail at.
05Autonomy & approvals
The approved scope records this boundary. Every launch begins with review or approval; any action that later runs unattended is enabled only after you approve that specific lane.
May act without approval after rollout
- Producing rubric-based screening summaries
- Scheduling and rescheduling interviews
- Sending status updates using approved templates
Always needs your approval
- Every advance/reject decision — humans decide, always
- Any deviation from approved communication templates
- Salary or offer discussions of any kind
06Data & privacy commitments
- CVs are personal data with retention limits — PDPA applies squarely.
- Rubrics must be reviewed for discriminatory criteria; the assistant applies rules, it doesn't launder bias.
- Candidates should know when they're corresponding with an assistant.
07Example exchange
Recruitment Assistant
14 new applications for Ops Executive. 5 meet all must-haves (summaries attached, evidence quoted). 3 are near-misses — worth a look: two lack the licence but have equivalent experience. 6 don't meet the stated minimums; I've drafted the standard regret note but won't send until you confirm the shortlist.
Draws on screening and scheduling workflows used in our own hiring.
