What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, we'd lose half our evening candidate calls to voicemail, especially for senior software engineers, and it was killing our tech staffing pipeline. Now, the voice agent screens for AWS certification and agile experience, booking interview slots directly into our CRM— we've filled three senior dev roles in the last month that we would've missed, increasing our fill rate by 25%."

Sarah Jenkins

Talent Acquisition Lead at TechRecruit Pros, a boutique IT staffing agency

"Implementing their custom AI voice system was a game-changer during our busy Q4 season. It handled a surge of nurse practitioner inquiries over a holiday weekend, qualifying 15 strong fits based on licensure and shift preferences without us lifting a finger. Clients in hospital networks noticed the speed and gave us rave reviews, securing two multi-year contracts."

Mike Rivera

Managing Director at HealthTalent Partners, specializing in healthcare staffing

"We were skeptical about AI sounding human enough for sensitive client calls on C-suite placements, but this system nails it with natural follow-up scripting. In the past quarter, it's managed follow-ups on 200+ executive searches, cutting our admin time in half and helping us close deals 15% faster while upholding confidentiality standards."

Common Questions

How does the AI voice agent integrate with our existing recruitment software?

We start by mapping your current tech stack, then engineer custom APIs for seamless two-way data flow. For instance, when a candidate calls, the agent pulls real-time job openings from your ATS like Bullhorn and logs qualified leads directly into your CRM. This eliminates manual entry, which typically wastes 15-20 hours weekly for recruiters. Our approach ensures the agent acts as an extension of your systems, not a separate tool, with full scalability for growing agencies. We've deployed this for over 50 professional services firms, achieving 99% uptime and reducing integration errors to near zero.

Can the AI handle complex candidate screening questions specific to our industry?

Absolutely. We train the agent on your exact criteria—think niche skills for IT recruitment or compliance checks for finance roles—using your historical data and personas. It asks targeted questions like 'What's your experience with AWS certifications?' and scores responses against your benchmarks. Unlike generic bots, ours adapts in real-time, escalating nuanced queries to humans. Agencies report 40% faster screening, allowing focus on relationship-building. Setup involves a one-week training phase, after which it handles 70-80% of initial interactions autonomously.

What happens if a call requires human intervention during off-hours?

The agent intelligently detects complexity, such as salary negotiations or urgent client demands, and seamlessly transfers to your on-call team via integrated paging or SMS alerts. It provides context summaries beforehand, so recruiters jump in informed. For after-hours, we can route to voicemail with AI-generated personalized callbacks scheduled at optimal times. This hybrid model ensures no opportunity is lost, with transfer rates under 20% in our deployments. It's like having a vigilant assistant that knows when to tag in the expert, maintaining your client-focused service levels.

How secure is the AI voice agent for handling sensitive candidate data?

Security is paramount in recruitment, so we build with enterprise-grade protocols: end-to-end encryption for calls, GDPR and CCPA compliance, and role-based access controls. Data is stored in your owned system, not third-party clouds, minimizing breach risks. From our RecoverlyAI experience in regulated industries, we include audit logs for every interaction. Independent audits confirm 100% compliance, and we provide SOC 2 reports. This protects talent profiles and builds trust, essential for professional services where data mishandling can cost client relationships.

What's the typical timeline and cost for implementing this for a mid-sized agency?

For a 20-50 person agency, discovery and build take 4-6 weeks, followed by a 2-week testing phase for 95% accuracy. Costs start at $15,000 for a core setup, scaling with custom features like multi-language support—far below annual subscription fees for similar capabilities. ROI hits within 3 months via captured leads; one client recouped costs by filling two roles faster. We offer phased payments tied to milestones, ensuring alignment with your budget and recruitment cycles.

Will the AI voice agent sound natural enough to engage picky candidates?

Yes, we use advanced neural TTS models for fluid, empathetic speech that mimics professional recruiters—pausing for responses, using industry jargon like 'contingency placements' naturally. Trained on thousands of real calls, it achieves 92% satisfaction scores in tests. Unlike robotic alternatives, ours handles accents and interruptions gracefully. Post-launch, we fine-tune based on feedback, ensuring it resonates with candidates who expect personalized, expertise-driven interactions in professional services.
