How an AI recruiting team runs one role from your strategy to a signed offer. The 8 steps, the ranking weights, the questions and the checks, exactly as a Hiring Run uses them.
Three quick details and it's yours, right here on the page.
Not a job description. Tell your AI recruiting lead what you would tell a colleague: who you need, what really matters, and where you can bend.
Every candidate gets scored the same way, and you decide how much each criterion counts. Weights add up to 100%. Example for a Senior Account Executive:
| Criterion | What it measures | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Role | How closely their job titles match the role | 33% |
| Location | Whether they live or work near the role | 22% |
| Skills | How many key skills appear in their profile | 22% |
| Seniority | Whether their level fits this role | 11% |
| Industry | Whether they have worked in your industry | 6% |
| Current company | How well their employer fits your target | 6% |
This is what lets an AI team work on its own without surprises. Write down what it may never do without you.
Most hires stall because one stream waits for the other. Run outbound and inbound together from day one.
Search the whole market for people who are not looking. Reach them by email, LinkedIn and WhatsApp. Follow up on day 0, day 3 and day 7, then stop.
Publish the role on the job boards and social channels that fit it. Answer every applicant, even with a no.
Both streams land in one talent pool, without duplicates, ranked against the criteria from step 2. Every score comes with the reason behind it, so nobody has to trust a black box.
The first conversation sells the role as much as it qualifies the person. Prepare four answers before anyone calls.
Interested candidates move into a structured AI interview. For every must-have, decide what proof you'll accept, and ask one follow-up question that only real experience can answer.
Before anyone reaches your calendar, align the four things that break late-stage hires. Then you meet three finalists, each with the evidence behind them.
MetaDay's AI recruiting lead, Ryan, runs every step of this playbook with his team. You set the strategy and make the final call.
