Better Hiring Starts at the Top of the Funnel

AI Screening by VONQ is an AI-powered candidate screening solution embedded within Lever that helps recruiting teams pre-screen, score and rank candidates at scale. It transforms high application volume into shortlists, so recruiters can move faster and focus on the right candidates sooner.

AI screening starts the moment a candidate applies through your existing ATS workflow. AI Screening by VONQ engages candidates through structured, job-relevant chat and voice conversations, then evaluates responses against role-specific criteria derived from the job description. Recruiters receive a ranked, summarized shortlist with full reasoning visible, helping them evaluate candidates faster. The recruiter reviews and decides; AI screening supports.

AI Screening by VONQ reduces the time recruiters spend manually screening applications by surfacing the most relevant candidates faster and prioritizing next steps. Recruiters receive ranked, summarized shortlists and structured candidate dossiers with role-specific insights, helping them evaluate candidates more efficiently and spend more time engaging talent instead of reviewing applications manually.

AI Screening by VONQ uses structured candidate evaluations and standardized screening processes to provide consistent assessments and support fairer hiring decisions. AI Screening is designed to screen candidates in, not screen them out, by surfacing the most relevant candidates and helping recruiters focus on who to move forward rather than who to reject. To help ensure these processes remain fair, transparent, and compliant, AI Screening by VONQ is independently audited by Warden Assured, a third-party AI governance platform that continuously monitors bias, compliance, and responsible AI behavior across 15 protected categories. To date, more than 64,000 candidate evaluations have been completed with zero bias detected.

AI Screening by VONQ works directly within Lever, allowing recruiters to manage pre-screening candidates and enable faster hiring workflows in one connected platform instead of relying on disconnected tools or manual processes. Because it is embedded within Lever, there is no new vendor to onboard or integration project to manage, so it's activation, not implementation. AI screening works within existing workflows, helping teams get value faster.
