SOLUTION · REPLACING OFFSHORE TEAMS

Your offshore screening team. In your voice. 24/7.

Most companies hiring at scale pay a BPO in Manila or Bogotá $12-20 per phone screen. The quality swings by shift, the rubric drifts every quarter, and you're rebuilding the script with each new agent cohort. Taskflow Recruit replaces that team with one AI interviewer — same voice, same rubric, every call, every time zone.

THE PROBLEM

Your offshore team is your hiring's weakest link.

It made sense in 2015. Offshore phone-screening was cheaper than hiring more recruiters, and the quality was "good enough." But in 2026, the math has flipped.

Your BPO charges $12-20 per screen, drifts rubric quality every cohort change, runs 7-day SLAs that mean a hot candidate is cold by the time you see the transcript, and quietly raises rates 8-15% per renewal. The screens are inconsistent. The rubrics aren't audit-defensible. And every quarter your TA leader has to re-train another batch of agents who don't really care about your roles.

Meanwhile your candidates — the ones who actually pick up — are being interviewed by someone reading a script they barely understood three days ago.

THE FIX

One interviewer. Built in your voice. Available always.

  • Custom voice option: build an AI interviewer that sounds like your brand, or pick from Alia (warm female) / Atlas (warm male)
  • Same script, same rubric, every call — no agent training, no quality drift, no cohort changes
  • 24/7 availability with no shift gaps, no time-zone arbitrage, no holiday outages
  • Transcripts and rubric-aligned scores delivered to your ATS in <5 minutes (vs. 5-10 day BPO SLA)
  • Audit trail per call: full transcript, scoring rationale, language detection, time-stamped events
  • Designed to scale from 100 to 100,000 calls/month without operational headcount change

THE PROCESS

Before vs. after.

  1. STEP 01
    Before: 6 agents

    3 time zones, $14/screen, 7-day SLA, quality drift every cohort change.

  2. STEP 02
    Before: shift gaps

    Coverage holes on weekends, holidays, and agent turnover windows.

  3. STEP 03
    After: 1 agent

    All time zones, $3–5/screen at volume, 4-hour SLA, identical rubric every call.

  4. STEP 04
    After: no drift

    Same voice, same rubric, audit-defensible from day one to day one thousand.

FAQ

Questions we get every week.

We're under contract with our BPO. Can we run parallel?

Most customers do exactly this for 60-90 days. Run Taskflow Recruit alongside your BPO on a subset of roles, compare the transcripts and scores side-by-side, then ramp up. We don't ask you to break the BPO contract — we just ask for a clean comparison.

Will candidates know they're talking to AI?

Yes — every call starts with disclosure ("Hi, I'm an AI interviewer helping with first-round screening today"). This is both regulatory (NYC LL 144, several states) and an experience-design choice. Candidates respond well to it; most prefer it to robotic-script BPO agents.

Can you screen for soft skills the way a human can?

We score communication clarity, professionalism, role-relevant emotional intelligence, and self-awareness — all dimensions a human BPO agent (reading from a script) typically can't capture consistently. Where we don't replace humans: the final round, where a hiring manager assesses cultural fit and team dynamics.

What if a candidate has accessibility needs?

We support TTY relay, text-based interview alternatives, and extended-time accommodations. Candidates flag their needs at the start, or you can pre-flag in the ATS.

How do you handle data residency for global hiring?

We offer EU, US, LATAM, and APAC data residency. Transcripts and recordings stay in the region where the call occurred.
