The "Silent Hours" Problem
Candidates ghosting after unanswered evening calls from international talent pools, leading to a 25% drop in response rates for executive searches
Recruiters overwhelmed by peak-hour call volumes during talent acquisition surges, missing opportunities to nurture candidate relationships in competitive markets
Delayed responses to urgent client requests for temp placements in specialized roles like IT consulting, resulting in lost contracts to faster competitors
After-hours gaps eroding trust with high-value corporate clients in finance and legal sectors expecting immediate availability for compliance-sensitive hires
Lost revenue from unhandled inquiries during weekends when passive candidates in executive networks are most active on mobile devices
Manual follow-up on screening calls for skill assessments draining recruiter bandwidth from strategic sourcing in niche professional fields

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's voice agents, we'd lose half our weekend inquiries from traveling execs seeking advisory roles. Now, they're screened and booked before Monday—last quarter alone, that netted us three C-suite placements in finance we would've missed. It's like having an extra recruiter who never sleeps, boosting our pipeline by 45%."
Sarah Thompson
Talent Acquisition Director, Apex Executive Search Firm
"Integrating this with our ATS was seamless, and the agents handle tricky compliance questions on data privacy for IT consulting gigs without missing a beat. We saw a 28% uptick in client retention because responses are now instant, even at midnight—over the past six months, it stabilized our temp staffing division during peak demand."
Michael Rivera
Operations Manager, Global Professional Staffing Partners
"Our team was buried in calls during hiring surges for engineering consultants. These AI agents took over initial screenings, cutting our response time from 24 hours to under 5 minutes. In the first two months, we filled 15% more specialized roles, and our recruiters finally have bandwidth for proactive sourcing in niche markets like biotech."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How do your AI voice agents handle sensitive recruitment conversations?
Our agents are custom-trained on your agency's protocols, including EEOC guidelines and data privacy laws like GDPR. They use nuanced scripting to ask about skills and experience without bias, escalating to humans for salary discussions or accommodations. In deployments for agencies like yours, this has maintained 100% compliance while qualifying 90% of calls accurately. We also include audit logs for every interaction, ensuring transparency and reducing legal risks in high-stakes hiring.
Can these agents integrate with our existing ATS and CRM tools?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way API integrations with platforms like Bullhorn, Lever, Greenhouse, and Salesforce. During the build phase, we map your workflows to sync candidate data in real-time—such as auto-populating profiles from call insights. This eliminates manual entry, which wastes 15-20 hours weekly for most recruiters. Our production-ready code ensures reliability, with 99.9% uptime in live environments, transforming disjointed tools into a unified recruitment engine.
What if a call requires human intervention during off-hours?
Our agents are designed for intelligent handoffs: they qualify the candidate, gather key details, and either book a slot or notify your on-call team via SMS/email with a full transcript. For urgent placements, like executive searches, they can prioritize based on predefined rules. Agencies report this cuts escalation needs by 70%, but when it happens, the prep work makes transitions seamless—boosting efficiency without compromising the personal touch clients expect.
How quickly can we deploy these AI voice agents?
From initial consultation to live deployment, most agencies see results in 4-6 weeks. We start with a rapid discovery session to customize scripts and integrations, then build and test iteratively. Post-launch, we monitor for the first two weeks to optimize. This timeline is faster than building in-house, and our track record shows immediate impact: one client reduced missed calls by 80% within the first month, accelerating their time-to-hire significantly.
Are there ongoing costs after the initial build?
Unlike subscription-heavy models, we deliver full ownership of your custom system with minimal maintenance fees—typically 10-15% of build cost annually for updates and support. No per-call pricing or vendor lock-in. This shifts you from rented tools to a owned asset, saving 50%+ long-term compared to call center outsourcing. We include training for your team and performance dashboards to track ROI, ensuring the investment pays off through higher placement volumes.
How do you ensure the agents sound professional and agency-specific?
We train voices using advanced TTS models fine-tuned to your brand's tone—consultative, confident, and expertise-focused. Scripts incorporate your terminology, like 'contingency placements' or 'retained searches,' and adapt based on caller context. Real-user testing refines natural flow, achieving 92% satisfaction in voice quality per our benchmarks. It's not robotic; think of it as a tireless extension of your recruiters, handling routine calls to let humans shine in relationship-driven work.
