Keep one application request open across phone and messaging
Hiring multichannel voice keeps one open request ID when candidates start on the phone and continue on WhatsApp for candidate screening questions, interview scheduling, and role FAQs while keeping hiring decisions with humans.
What is hiring multichannel voice automation?
Recruiting coordinators stop interview scheduling ping-pong across time zones by deploying Botcadence when phone intake continues into messaging. The agent collects role family, screening answers, and interviewer availability, answers only approved knowledge, and escalates offer letters and compensation negotiations with full context. Success looks like screened candidates with interviews on the calendar. Map the first path via recruitment screening voice agent and browse hiring industry hub for adjacent channels.
