Staffing agencies: your first round is a phone call between two client visits. We moved it to video

I run StormInterview and this is a self promo post, so you know where you are

Last week I wrote here about hiring in healthcare. This one is about staffing and recruitment agencies, because that's where the pain is loudest. A client calls on Tuesday at 16:40 and asks if you have someone for Thursday. Your recruiter has phoned six people, two picked up, one might come in tomorrow. Or not

So we moved the first round off the phone. A candidate gets one link and answers your questions on video whenever it suits them, often the same evening. Every answer is transcribed and laid next to your criteria, you get a suggested score with the exact quotes behind it, and you still make the call. No face or voice analysis, nobody gets rejected automatically. The app and the data run in Amsterdam, transcription and scoring go through Deepgram and Anthropic in the US, it's all on our GDPR page

We launched here last week. If you run an agency or a volume desk, I'd honestly like to know one thing: what would make you trust a suggested score enough to build the shortlist on it, and what would make you ignore it?
