VoiceAdvantage Hiring Frenzy

harQuen (pronounced “har * ken”) unveiled VoiceScreener (now VoiceAdvantage) which lets its account holders set up a web-based dashboard to develop and distribute custom-recorded phone interviews so business owners, hiring managers or recruiters can quickly and efficiently find those perfect candidates. VoiceAdvantage couldn’t come at a better time–especially in this holiday job market.

Employers easily set up a VoiceAdvantage account and create as many job campaigns as they like online. They then record their greeting, the screening questions and send applicants invites through an automated email. Applicants respond to the invitation online enter their phone number and wallah — the VoiceAdvantage magic online assistant calls them to conduct the interviews and the employer can easily screen the results at their convenience.

Of course VoiceAdvantage was not designed to take the place of live interviews, but like many other types of pre-screening tools available online today, it does help you get to the short list quickly and easily.

Opponents of the technology argue it may appear a little impersonal. A cold, automated phone system could drive away potentially good candidates, but that’s just more of a reason to spend a little time adding a dash of corporate culture into the recorded questions.
