The Framework

How experienced recruiters actually interview — turned into software.

Configurable stages, editable questions, and evidence-based evaluations that keep the recruiter accountable for every recommendation.

Default Flow

Two stages, one goal: consistent evidence per candidate

Recruiters can add, rename, or reorder stages. The defaults below reflect the interview flow most independent recruiters already use.

Stage 1

Virtual Screening

A short remote conversation designed to decide whether the candidate deserves an in-person interview.

  • Optional recruiter intro script that explains the full process
  • Four default questions covering goals, strengths, weaknesses, and self-evaluation
  • AI generates targeted follow-ups when answers lack detail

Stage 2

Career Timeline Review

Walk chronologically through every previous role, applying the same seven-question structure to each one.

  • Consistent evaluation of expectations, outcomes, and low points
  • Signature humility question: where were your coworkers stronger than you?
  • Patterns and contradictions surfaced across roles

Principles

What makes this framework different

The framework is opinionated about method, not about people.

Evidence, not opinions

Every conclusion cites the specific answer that supports it.

Recruiter judgment stays central

The AI never says 'hire this candidate'. Recommendations require human approval.

Follow-ups instead of penalties

Vague or cliché answers trigger better questions — not automatic score deductions.

Product Philosophy

RecruiterLens AI is not designed to replace recruiter judgment. It is designed to make hiring decisions more structured, evidence-based, explainable, and consistent.
