Replace your phone screen with evidence you can compare

A one-way video interview, also called pre-recorded or async, lets candidates record responses to your screening questions on their own schedule. Instead of coordinating live calls, you share a Position Link and candidates complete the interview from any device. You review when you have time. The recorded responses become a structured signal you can compare side by side, score against a rubric, and share with your team.

You build the interview in three minutes by pasting your job description into Truffle. The AI interview question generator drafts role-specific interview questions and suggests scoring criteria. You publish a Position Link, candidates record from any browser, and AI-powered scoring ranks every response against your criteria. You see match scores, AI summaries, and 30-second Candidate Shorts inside Magic Review.

Candidates click the Position Link, see what to expect, run a quick mic and camera check, and record their pre-recorded video interviews from any modern browser. No app download, no account creation, no login required. Most candidates finish in 10 to 15 minutes. Practice questions are available before the live attempt so candidates can warm up.

Live interviews require real-time scheduling and one recruiter per candidate. One-way interviews remove the scheduling step entirely. Candidates respond when they're at their best, you review at your own pace, and one recruiter can clear a full pipeline in the time one phone screen used to take. Side-by-side comparison across the shortlist is the part live interviews can't give you.

Yes, and you control how many retakes they get per question. Retakes reduce candidate anxiety, lift completion rates, and still give you genuine signal because every retake is recorded under the same conditions. Most teams allow one retake per question.

Most video interview platforms collect recordings and leave you to watch every one. Truffle analyzes every response against your criteria and surfaces match scores, AI summaries, and 30-second Candidate Shorts. The interview is one signal in a candidate screening platform that also handles resume screening and pre-employment assessments. One profile per candidate, three signals.

A well-configured Truffle interview sits at roughly 10 minutes for the candidate. Teams running Truffle see typical completion rates in the 60 to 80% range when Candidate Reminders (SMS and email notifications) are enabled at 24 and 72 hours. Completion is also a signal. A candidate who records thoughtful answers is self-selecting for intent.

Yes. Candidates can record from any modern browser on phone, tablet, or laptop. No app download required. The candidate recording interface respects each candidate's device preference and works equally well on iOS and Android.

Yes. Truffle ships native ATS integrations with Ashby, Workable, Breezy HR, Bullhorn, JazzHR, Recruitee, and Teamtailor. Plus a Zapier integration to 7,000+ apps, REST API access, and webhooks for custom AI agents. Match scores, AI summaries, and assessment scoring write back to the applicant tracking system you already use.

Truffle supports written questions, video-based questions, multi-choice questions, and coding assessment-based questions in a single screening. Mix question types to match the signal you actually need from each role. Pre-made tests are available from the comprehensive assessment library, or you can write your own.

AI-powered scoring runs every response through your custom rubric. You set must-haves, nice-to-haves, success criteria, and team traits at intake. The AI returns a match percentage with per-criterion reasoning, an alignment score per requirement, and an AI summary. AI surfaces the evidence. You and your team make the decision.

Truffle ships AI Check (ChatGPT detection plus anti-cheating technology) that flags responses with patterns of AI assistance, off-screen reading, or generated answers. Combined with randomized questions, time limits, and configurable retakes, you get high confidence in the response without surveilling the candidate. We do not run webcam snapshots, copy-paste and tab tracking, device and location monitoring, or other invasive AI proctoring. Ethical AI is a design choice, not an afterthought.

Truffle does not claim to eliminate bias — no AI tool can. What we do is apply the same criteria to every candidate. You set a structured rubric at intake. AI surfaces evidence per criterion with reasoning. Reviewers see the rubric, the response, and the score side by side. Applying consistent criteria to everyone is the recommended way to reduce the inconsistency that contributes to unconscious bias in gut-feel phone screens. Branded experience, face validity in the question set, and a transparent audit trail are built into the default workflow.

It can, depending on the role. For most roles a one-way video interview captures communication, presence, and motivation. For roles where you need to measure cognitive abilities, technical and soft skills testing, or work style, layer in talent assessments (Personality / Big Five, Situational Judgment, Environment Fit). You get one candidate, one profile, one shortlist across all three.
