Tracking candidates isn't enough to choose between them
- A pipeline that keeps filling up. Candidates move from stage to stage, but someone still has to read each profile to decide who moves forward.
- Back-to-back calls. Prescreening happens over the phone, one candidate at a time, with calls that ring and ring.
- Uneven notes. Interview notes vary from one recruiter to the next and make the decision harder.
How the Trakstar Hire integration works
- You authorize the connection. During setup, an admin on your Trakstar Hire account authorizes Delectus to read your job postings and applications.
- Applications arrive in Delectus. Job postings, applications and resumes are pulled in automatically, read-only: nothing is changed in Trakstar Hire.
- The agents take it from there. Each resume is compared with the job, then the prescreening agents reach out to the candidates you shortlist.
What does the Delectus Trakstar Hire integration add?
Trakstar Hire is the recruiting module of the Trakstar suite. It's used to post jobs and track candidates throughout the process.
Delectus doesn't replace Trakstar Hire. It sits on top of the recruiting side and takes on some of the work the software leaves to your team: reading resumes, reaching out to candidates and preparing interviews. You keep Trakstar Hire for everything else.
The connection is read-only. Delectus pulls in your job postings, applications and resumes but writes nothing back to Trakstar Hire: your records and statuses stay exactly as they are. The data is hosted in the European Union, is never used to train models and follows your retention periods. The decisions stay with your team.
What Delectus adds to your pipeline
Trakstar Hire organizes the pipeline. Delectus helps decide who moves through it. Job postings, applications and resumes are pulled in read-only, and every candidate gets a fit score with its reasons, plus a summary of strengths and gaps.
For shortlisted candidates, the prescreening agents take over by text or phone, and the recruiter finds the answers sorted by criterion. Interviews run with an interview kit and end with a report by theme.
Screen Trakstar Hire applications without reading every one
Every resume pulled in from Trakstar Hire is read by the AI and compared with the role's criteria. You get a ranking with a fit score for each candidate and the reasons behind it: closely related experience, a must-have skill found in the resume, a compatible location. A summary sets out their strengths and gaps.
The applications you bring in also grow your candidate database. When a new job opens, Delectus suggests past candidates who fit it, and you can search your database in plain language, then narrow down by experience, skills or location.
Prescreen by text and by phone
For the candidates you shortlist, the SMS prescreening agent sends a first message, introduces itself as an AI and asks for the candidate's consent before asking the job's questions. It understands free-form answers, follows up when an answer is vague and spots answers that contradict each other. The conversation can also happen on WhatsApp.
If there's no reply after two follow-ups, the voice prescreening agent calls. If the person still can't be reached, you're notified and take it from there. Answers come back sorted by criterion, and when they fit, the agent offers an interview in your actual open slots, thanks to the calendar synced with Outlook and Teams.
Example: an accounts payable role
A company opens an accounts payable position in Trakstar Hire. In Delectus, applications are ranked on relevant experience and command of the required accounting tools.
The SMS prescreening agent checks shortlisted candidates' availability and expectations. Two of them don't reply and get a call from the voice agent. The accounting manager receives four prescreened profiles within two days.
Interviews that are prepared and comparable
For each role, Delectus prepares an interview kit with questions and scoring criteria drawn from the job posting. The interview can be run by Alicia, the AI interviewer, or by you on video, with a real-time transcript and suggested follow-up questions. The report by theme that follows lets you compare candidates on the same criteria.
