Process

From application to shortlist, without the pile.

Talentiqa replaces the resume collection step with a structured conversation every applicant completes asynchronously. Your recruiter receives a scored shortlist.

The Three Steps

Every role runs the same process.

Consistent, repeatable, and faster than manual screening. No variation by recruiter, no variation by time of day.

You configure the role

Define the role title, required criteria, and any deal-breaker conditions. Talentiqa generates a structured question set from your criteria. You review and confirm before the role goes live.

Applicants complete a conversation

Each applicant receives a link. The conversation runs asynchronously, 8 to 12 questions, adaptive follow-ups included. Applicants can complete it on phone or desktop, in the language they are most comfortable in.

You receive a scored shortlist

Candidates meeting your criteria appear in the shortlist with conversation summaries and individual scores. Those who do not meet the minimum threshold are held separately. You decide who to advance.

The Conversation

Structured questions. Consistent scoring.

Every applicant answers the same core questions, calibrated to the role. Follow-up questions adapt to their responses. You see comparable answers across every candidate.

The conversation typically takes 8 to 12 minutes. Applicants can pause and resume. No scheduling required.

Scoring runs automatically as each conversation completes.
Talentiqa
Describe how you prioritize when you have more tasks than time available in a day.
Applicant
I start by listing everything, then categorize by deadline and impact. Anything client-facing or deadline-blocked goes first. I flag anything I may need to escalate early.
Talentiqa
You mentioned escalating early. Walk me through a specific situation where you escalated something and what the outcome was.
Applicant
Last spring we had a critical delivery delayed by a supplier issue. I flagged it to my manager two days before the deadline instead of trying to solve it alone. That gave us time to find an alternative.
Talentiqa
What criteria did you use to decide it was time to escalate rather than continuing to resolve it yourself?
The Application

No document required from applicants.

Applicants arrive at a role link, complete the structured conversation, and that is their application. No resume upload, no cover letter, no form fields. The conversation IS the application.
