A screening call is a vital first step in the recruitment process. It acts as a brief, initial conversation between a recruiter and a candidate, usually lasting about 15 to 30 minutes. The goal is to evaluate if the candidate’s skills, experience, and expectations align with the role and the company. It’s an efficient way to filter out unsuitable candidates early, saving time for both parties involved.
Why Conduct a Screening Call?
1. Assess Basic Qualifications: This call helps determine if a candidate meets the essential criteria required for the job. Recruiters can quickly evaluate work experience, education, and relevant skills.
2. Gauge Cultural Fit: Beyond qualifications, the screening call provides a chance to understand if the candidate’s values and work style align with the company culture. This alignment is crucial for long-term employee satisfaction and retention.
3. Clarify Candidate Expectations: Screening calls also allow candidates to ask questions about the role and the company. It allows both parties to align their expectations before proceeding further.
