How it works
How Zeli runs your hiring,
end to end.
Zeli is briefed the way you would brief a new employee: Give her a knowledge base, she learns the business, and she works inside the systems you already run.
Ten capabilities, one co-worker
From job ad to shortlist,
with nothing dropped in between.
Most AI hiring products do one stage. Zeli does all of them, in order, and shows you her working at every step. Ten capabilities, in the order a role runs through them.
- Step 1: Write and post the ad
Automated job advertising
Give Zeli a job title and a few notes. She drafts the ad in your brand voice and posts it to your careers page and 150+ job boards in one click. Every applicant lands in one pipeline, and Zeli answers their questions from your knowledge base as they apply.
- Step 2: Find candidates
Sourcing and re-scoring
Zeli searches job boards, your past applicants and opt-in talent pools. Every new role re-scores your whole database, so the strong person who applied last year is found again, without anyone running a search.
- Step 3: Read every application
Shortlisting, done
Every application screened, scored and ranked against your role requirements, inside 24 hours. No more manually reviewing hundreds of applications. Zeli surfaces the strongest matches first so your team reviews candidates in priority order.
- Step 4: Interview every candidate
AI interviews, video and phone
Candidates complete interviews at a time that suits them, by AI video avatar, telephone, SMS or chat, in their language. Zeli cross-references their answers against the resume, flags inconsistencies and delivers a clear summary with strengths, weaknesses and a recommendation for every candidate.
- Step 5: Every word kept
Interview recording and transcription, done
Every interview fully recorded and transcribed. Every candidate conversation becomes a complete, searchable record with timestamped playback. No manual note-taking, no relying on memory, no scattered documents.
- Step 6: Reference checks by phone
AI reference checks
Zeli calls each referee on their mobile, runs the same structured conversation, follows up automatically when nobody picks up, and compiles a clean report with sentiment analysis and the call audio attached. No chasing required.
- Step 7: Verified before offer
Compliance automation
Working rights verification, police clearances, blue card checks and sector credentials such as AHPRA registration, collected, verified and stored. Every requirement met before a candidate reaches offer stage.
- Step 8: Rank the shortlist
Hiring manager dashboard
Your hiring managers review ranked candidates, read AI summaries and watch the interview highlights in one place, without sitting through hours of interviews. The reasoning sits next to every name, and the recording is one click away.
- Step 9: You decide
Built-in video conferencing
Zeli books final rounds straight into Google and Microsoft calendars and runs them inside the platform, so your team never switches to Teams. She sits in on every meeting, transcribes in real time and produces a summary with recommendations. Your team makes the call.
- Step 10: Every step, forever
