What Aeviya brings to your screening process

Aeviya connects the initial interview to the shortlist your hiring team needs. Here is how that works in practice.

  1. 1

    Define what a strong candidate looks like

    Set the skills and competencies that matter for the role. Aeviya uses those criteria to structure the interview and evaluate responses, giving your team a common basis for comparison.

  2. 2

    Get candidate responses before the next recruiter conversation

    Qualified applicants complete structured interviews in text, voice, or video. Interviews are available around the clock, so your team can gather responses without arranging an initial call for each candidate.

  3. 3

    Review a shortlist with the reasoning behind it

    Aeviya ranks candidates against your criteria and provides supporting rationale. Activate the finalists you want to review, then use their evaluations to prepare focused follow-up conversations.

A hiring workflow in practice

  • Example: screening for a customer support role

    Suppose your team receives 100 applications and wants to evaluate customer communication, problem solving, and relevant experience. You define those criteria in Aeviya, bring in applicants, and invite qualified candidates to a structured AI interview. Aeviya ranks completed evaluations with supporting rationale. Your team chooses which finalists to activate for human review and which questions to explore next.

  • What your team reviews

    For each finalist, your team can review the evaluation scores and the rationale behind them before the next conversation. In this example, the interviewer might ask candidates to explain how they handled a frustrated customer. The team can then explore the response in more detail during a human interview. This is an illustrative workflow, not a customer case study or measured outcome.

Which fits your team?

  • Why choose Aeviya?

    Choose Aeviya when your priority is a structured path from applicant interviews to a ranked shortlist: criteria your team sets, candidate evaluations with rationale, and a deliberate finalist review step. Published job and activation fees let you estimate the cost of your planned workflow.

  • When to evaluate HeyMilo

    Include HeyMilo in your evaluation if SMS or form screening and synchronization to one of its supported ATS workflows are important requirements. Confirm the exact scope in your demo and quote.

What to know before you start

  • Confirm your ATS intake and report handoff during setup, including which steps are automatic and which your team handles.
  • Use the same role and expected hiring volume when comparing demos and costs. Review sample reports, interview questions, and candidate experience before choosing a plan.
