AI bot screens Account Executive candidates from LinkedIn: accepts CVs, asks about deals and contact base — ready shortlist for your recruiter.

A company posts an Account Executive vacancy on LinkedIn — the "Apply" button opens a browser-based bot. The candidate uploads a CV and answers voice questions about their largest deals, quota attainment and contact database. AI analyses the transcript using criteria: deal size, sales cycle, industry knowledge and decision-maker contacts. The recruiter gets a scored shortlist without a single call or manual screening.

📞 AI evaluates the specificity of numbers: deal size, quota attainment, decision-maker database size

AI bot asks voice screening questions to AE candidate

Recommended questions for AE: • Tell me about your largest deal — how did you reach the decision-maker and close it? • What is your average deal size and quota attainment over the past year? • How do you handle a deal that has stalled? • Which industries have you worked in and do you have your own contact database — how many decision-makers in your book?
