The first interview is there to check what the resume doesn't tell you: real technical depth, how someone thinks, what drives them. Run by different people at different times, it produces interview reports that are hard to compare. And it ties up your recruiters and hiring managers with candidates who won't go any further.
The Delectus video interview agent runs that first interview. Alicia asks the questions from the interview kit prepared for the job, follows up when an answer stays vague, transcribes everything and gives you a reasoned evaluation. Your team reads the interview report and decides who to meet.
How it works
- The interview kit is ready. Delectus prepares the questions from the job posting and the candidate's background: technical, motivation, situational. You review it and edit it.
- Alicia runs the video interview. One question at a time. She listens, builds on the answers and asks for a concrete example when an answer is too general. Everything is transcribed.
- You read the interview report. A summary, a score for each skill and an analysis of every answer, with the excerpt that backs it up. Your team chooses who moves on to the next round.
An AI that says it's an AI, a team that decides
- Candidates know they're talking to an AI. Alicia introduces herself as the Delectus AI interviewer in her very first sentence.
- The software never rules anyone out. Alicia evaluates and explains her evaluation. The decision stays with your team.
- The same interview for everyone. Same questions, same scorecard: candidates for a job are compared on the same footing.
- Data kept in Europe. Hosted in the European Union, never used to train a model, kept according to your rules.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to switch ATS?

Who makes the final decision?
Your team. Alicia evaluates and explains her evaluation, but she never advances or rejects anyone.
Can we use our own questions?

In the European Union. It isn't used to train any model, and it follows your retention periods.
Is the trial free?
Yes. You pick a technical role, Alicia runs a five-minute video interview with you, and you get the interview report by email.
