Voice Screening that Moves Questions Off the Application | WorkSignal

Screening in conversation, not on the application

The application is a form.
The screen is a conversation.

Move your screening questions off the application and onto a short, role-specific voice call. Candidates talk instead of filling out essays - you get genuine answers, verified and ranked, and your hours back.

The problem

Hundreds of applicants. Nobody can read them all.

The bigger the applicant pool, the more the best candidates get lost. Manual screening doesn't scale - so the strong ones drown in a pile of resumes nobody has time to read.

180+
Applications per hire

And rising. The average recruiter reviews only 25-30 out of every 250 - often seconds per resume.

75
Hours of manual screening per role

Roughly $2,175 in recruiter time per role - before you've talked to a single strong candidate.

Candidates surface automatically

Voice screening

Every applicant. One short voice screen.

WorkSignal calls every applicant with the same structured, role-specific voice screen, then returns a ranked shortlist with evidence. Ashby and Greenhouse sync are on the way.

The verification report

The signal your ATS is missing.

Every screen produces a transcript, a score, a verification report, and an audit trail - so you know exactly why each candidate is in your shortlist.

Authenticity on every screen

Shortlists you can stand behind.

Resume Claim Verification asks each candidate about their own resume and checks the answers against it. Natural-speech signals and quiet phone/network checks add confidence. When something does not line up, you get clear evidence - never an auto-rejection.

  • Resume Claim Verification
    Questions generated from the candidate's own resume, answers checked against it.
  • AI recommends, you decide
    No candidate advances on a score alone. Human review is enforced before every stage move.

Candidate verification

Trust your shortlist. Faster.

Every screen surfaces the signals that matter - resume claims, voice quality, and network context - so your team knows what to look at and what to ask next. No one is auto-rejected on a signal alone.

Resume claims

Questions generated from each candidate's own resume, with answers checked against it. Discrepancies surface as clear evidence.

Resume Claim Verification

Voice signals

Synthetic-voice detection, response-timing anomalies, flat-affect, and voice-consistency checks reveal a scripted or AI-generated screen.

Voice signal analysis

Network & device

VPN, VOIP number, geo mismatch, IP change, and multi-session checks catch candidates who are not who - or where - they claim to be.

Network & device checks

AI flags. You decide. No candidate is ever auto-rejected on a signal alone.

Built for regulated AI hiring

Hire with confidence in regulated markets.

AI hiring is now regulated in Ontario, Quebec, Illinois, New York City, Colorado, and the EU. WorkSignal was built for this from the start - disclosure, consent, and audit trails are not afterthoughts.

51 compliance rules across 24 regulations. US, Canada, and EU.

AI disclosure in every job posting
Ontario Bill 149 and NYC Local Law 144 require it. WorkSignal adds it automatically.
Candidate consent before any evaluation
Illinois BIPA treats voice recordings as biometric data. Jurisdiction-aware consent is collected before any interview starts.
Audit trail for every decision
Every screening step is logged, timestamped, and exportable. If a candidate asks why they were rejected, you have the record.
Human review required before any candidate advances
AI recommends. You decide. No candidate moves forward on a score alone - that is a product design principle and a legal protection.

The cost of bad signal is higher than the cost of good tooling.

One bad hire or one agency placement runs $10,000-$25,000. WorkSignal is priced around your hiring volume so the right evaluations scale with your team.
