Phase 1 · CV Screening

Wake up to a screened, scored, sorted shortlist.

Every CV that lands in your ATS is evaluated against criteria you control. By 6 AM, you have the full ranking and the reasoning behind it.

01 · Your criteria

Auto-generated, fully editable.

MagicScreen reads your job description and proposes a starter set of evaluation criteria. You add, reorder, override, or strip them down — the AI scores against exactly what you set.

  • Pulled directly from your job description
  • Edit, reorder, or replace any criterion
  • Set must-haves vs. nice-to-haves
  • Org-wide defaults for criteria that apply to every role

02 · The overnight pass

Every CV scored by 6 AM.

New candidates pulled from your ATS overnight are evaluated criterion by criterion and assigned a Qualified, Maybe, or Disqualified verdict. The list is ranked by overall fit when you sit down to your morning coffee.

  • Runs automatically every night — no triggers, no waiting
  • Sortable by fit score, name, or any criterion
  • Filterable by status to see only Qualified candidates
  • Source visible — TalentLift, Manual, or any ATS

03 · The single-pane view

Open one candidate. See everything.

Per-criterion verdict, AI-generated summary, full CV preview, evaluation reasoning — all on one screen. No more bouncing between tabs to piece a candidate together.

  • Score per criterion with reasoning, not a black box
  • AI summary in plain language
  • Inline CV preview — no ATS round-trip
  • Mismatch flags so you can review the call

Phase 2 · Interview Screening

Run a real 20-minute interview. Without being there.

A live AI voice agent conducts the first-round interview, adapts to the candidate, switches language to test English level, and delivers a fully scored summary while you sleep.

Step · Setup

Set up an interview in 30 seconds.

Pick the language. Choose the voice. Review the auto-generated interview criteria — they're separate from your CV criteria and tuned for live conversation. Hit send.

  • UA or EN as the primary language — the agent switches mid-call to test English
  • Male / female voice selection per role or per workspace
  • Configurable expected duration: 12–15 min default
  • Secure interview link with a validity window you set

Recruiter always in the loop

Automation that respects your judgment.

MagicScreen automates the screening, not the hiring. Every decision the AI makes is editable, traceable, and reversible. The final call is always yours.

You set the criteria

The AI proposes criteria from the job description. You add, edit, reorder, and override anything. Org-wide defaults let you enforce house rules across every role.

You see the reasoning

Every score comes with the criterion-by-criterion reasoning — what the AI weighed and why. No verdict is a black box, no ranking is "trust the model."

You make the call

Nothing is auto-rejected. MagicScreen ranks and recommends — humans decide who advances. Override any verdict, override the order, override the AI.

Try MagicScreen on a real role for 14 days.

No commitment, no integration headaches, no setup fees. Plug it into one job, screen one batch of candidates, see the time you'd save across the rest of your week.
