# Brief each interviewer, and find where candidates drop out

In the same xAI guide, one bot posts a single Slack note before each interview with who the candidate is, why the team is interested, the stage and what to focus on. Another looks across the interview loop for where candidates fail and why, and turns that into questions recruiters can ask at the first screen.

## What they did

In an xAI guide, the company's recruiting team describes bots built at a team offsite. Preppy posts one Slack note before each interview that pulls candidate context from Notion, LinkedIn and the applicant tracking system. eVal looks across the interview loop for where and why candidates fail.

## How it went

The maker says Interviewers get who the candidate is, why the team is interested, the stage, focus areas and what has already been covered in one place. eVal's findings become questions recruiters can ask at the first screen, so problems are caught before interviewer time is spent.

## Good to know

This is the vendor's own team writing on its own site, with no numbers on time saved or hiring outcomes. Using candidate data across tools also raises privacy questions the guide does not cover.

## A prompt to try

One hour before each interview on my calendar, pull the candidate's details from <your applicant tracking system> and <other notes location> and post a short brief to <chat channel>: who they are, why we are interested, interview stage, what earlier rounds covered, and what this interviewer should focus on. Once a month, look across interview feedback for <role> and tell me at which stage candidates most often drop out and why, with two or three questions we could ask earlier.

### Draft interview scorecards from the call transcript

  xAI's recruiting team says a bot matches each interview transcript or recording to the role's scorecard and drafts the feedback form in the recruiter's voice. It then asks the recruiter a few follow-up questions, such as their rating and what to probe next, before redrafting and submitting it to the ATS.

### Source candidates overnight, then wait for approval to reach out

  xAI's recruiting team describes a bot that learns from scorecards and resumes of past hired and rejected candidates, then sources new candidates overnight, adds them to the ATS as leads and drafts outreach sequences. A recruiter approves the send before the bot moves candidates to Reached Out and watches for replies.
