MHM HR integration: candidates prescreened before the first interview

Interviews that happen too early

• Interviews cut short. Ten minutes in, you find out the candidate isn't available for six months or the salary doesn't work.
• Managers pulled in for nothing. Every interview takes up a manager's time. When the basic requirements haven't been checked, that time is wasted.
• Uneven prescreening. Depending on the week's workload, the first call is either done carefully or rushed.

How the MHM HR integration works

1. Authorization. A MHM HR admin authorizes Delectus to read your recruiting data.
2. Sync. Job postings, applications and resumes arrive in Delectus, read-only.
3. Prescreening, then interview. The agents check the role's requirements, and only candidates who fit move on to an interview.

What the MHM HR integration adds to your hiring

MHM HR is recruiting software used in German-speaking countries. It structures job posting and application tracking. The integration adds a step many teams do by hand: prescreening candidates before the interview.

Delectus reads job postings and applications, ranks resumes against the role, then its agents check the requirements that matter with each shortlisted candidate. Managers only meet candidates whose availability, mobility and expectations fit.

For companies that use MHM HR in several countries and also hire in France, the agents talk in French with candidates for French roles, and reports follow the same structure for every team.

The same prescreening for everyone

Prescreening questions are defined with the role, and every shortlisted candidate gets the same ones. The SMS prescreening agent says it's an AI, asks for the candidate's consent and runs the conversation in natural language. The voice prescreening agent calls those who'd rather talk or who haven't replied after two follow-ups.

Answers land in the candidate profile, sorted by criterion, with points to check if an answer is still unclear. The recruiter then decides who moves on to an interview.

An interview that starts at the right level

Since the basic requirements have already been checked, the interview can focus on the job itself. The role's interview kit suggests the questions and scoring criteria. On video in Delectus, the transcript is produced in real time and a report by theme follows the conversation. The manager gets a write-up without having to write it.

If the candidate asks for a call, the voice prescreening agent calls them at the time they chose. It rephrases, follows up when an answer is vague and filters out background noise. The call transcript and its summary land in the candidate profile along with the answers.

Example: better-targeted interviews

For a team lead role, about ten candidates are shortlisted after the resume ranking. The SMS prescreening agent checks their availability, mobility and expectations. Two candidates can't start for several months and a third is aiming for pay well above the range.

The manager only meets the other seven, and the interviews go straight to team leadership and work organization. Each interview report is ready as soon as the conversation ends.

Prescreening that respects the candidate

Candidates know from the start that they're talking with an AI, and they can reply whenever suits them. If they have a question about the role, the agent answers it based on the job posting or notes it for the recruiter. A quick answer, even a no, beats waiting several weeks.

Read-only, with data in the EU

The sync changes nothing in MHM HR. Data processed by Delectus is hosted in the European Union and is never used to train models.
