InterviewGod · AI interview screening

Let AI run the first round so your team only meets the shortlist

The first round is where your team's time disappears and where good candidates drift to faster employers. InterviewGod conducts structured first-round interviews and scores every candidate against the same rubric, so your hiring managers only meet the people who clear it.

Same questions, same bar, every candidate — a consistent first filter that runs at the volume your funnel actually has, with the evidence behind each score.

Banao — every engineering hire clears an InterviewGod first round before a panel meets them.

What the screen does

A first round that is consistent, fast, and evidenced — the opposite of a tired recruiter on call number forty.

Structured AI interviews

Every candidate answers the same questions against the same rubric, so scores are comparable instead of mood-dependent.

Ranked, evidenced shortlists

Your team gets a ranked list with the reasoning behind each score, not a pile of CVs to re-read.

Runs at your volume

Screen tens or thousands of applicants without adding recruiter headcount to keep up with the inbound.

Human-owned decisions

AI runs the filter; your managers own every later round and the final call. The screen informs, it does not decide.

Every engineering first round, run by AI

  • ··%of first rounds run by AI
  • ··hrsof panel time saved per hire

Banao screens every engineering candidate on InterviewGod before a human panel meets them. It is how a 300-person company keeps hiring without burning its senior engineers on first-round calls.

High-volume hiring (anonymised)

A consistent bar across thousands of applicants

For teams screening at volume, the AI first round applies one bar to everyone, so the shortlist your managers see is consistent rather than dependent on which recruiter ran the call.

Our own first rounds run on it

Banao screens 100% of its engineering first rounds on InterviewGod. We are our own hardest customer — when the screen is too loose or too harsh, our own teams feel it, and we tune it.

Most interview-tech has never had to hire at scale on itself. This has, every week. The version you run has already been corrected against the cost of our own bad passes.

When an AI first round doesn't belong

A screen is a filter, not a decision. We will tell you where it does not fit:

  • Senior and executive roles: judgement and leadership do not reduce to a rubric — use humans.
  • Very low volume: hiring a couple of people does not justify configuring a screen.
  • Roles assessed by craft in person: where the work must be seen live, the first round should stay human.

How a rollout starts

We prove the screen against your own past hires first.

  1. Screening Pilot Sprint2 weeks · fixed price

    We configure the screen for one real role and run it against candidates you have already hired, so you see how its shortlist compares before committing.

  2. Configure & integrate

    We tune the rubric to your roles and wire shortlists and scores into your ATS so the evidence travels with the candidate.

  3. Run & refine

    Roll out across funnels, with the screen learning from which shortlisted candidates actually performed.

Frequently asked questions

For a first round, generally yes — it is faster and fairer than waiting weeks for a callback. We position it as a consistent first step, with humans owning every later round and the decision. Candidates reach your team having cleared a clear, even bar.

No. The AI runs the first-round filter and produces a ranked, evidenced shortlist. Your managers own every later round and the final call. The screen exists to give them better candidates to spend time on, not to decide for them.

Every candidate answers the same structured questions against the same rubric — more consistent than a human running their fortieth call. We validate each rollout against your own past hires in the Pilot Sprint and keep tuning as outcomes come in.

The two-week Screening Pilot Sprint runs the screen against candidates you have already hired, so you see how its shortlist compares to your own decisions before any wider rollout.
