The hiring challenge

250+ applicants. A 3‑day hiring deadline.

Davin Patel, Head HR at Unilights, had a role to close in 3 days and more than 250 applicants.

Their hiring

Recruiter’s assessment need
Hear candidates explain their experience, then review written and video evidence
Scheduling constraint
Candidates were at work during the recruiter’s calling hours

What got in the way

  1. 250+ candidates could not all receive a callDavin had a 3-day deadline and considered contacting every applicant personally impractical.
  2. Recruiter and candidate work hours overlappedCandidates were at work when Davin could call, making open conversations difficult.
  3. A resume did not show how someone presented experienceDavin valued hearing candidates explain their experience as well as reading their CVs.

How Flowmingo helped

Screen candidates without arranging individual calls

01Invitation

Upload all 250+ applicants in one CSV

Calling every applicant individually was impractical within the 3‑day deadline. Davin uploaded the full applicant list to Flowmingo to start the AI interview workflow.

The invitation each applicant gets; the role is a sample.

02AI Interview

Offer AI interviews 24/7

Candidates were at work when Davin could call. Flowmingo let them interview outside his calling hours, with follow‑ups encouraging them to take the interview.

03Report

Review written and video evidence

A CV alone could not show how candidates explained their experience. After each completed AI interview, Davin received a detailed report with written and video evidence to assess capability against the role.

An AI Interview report, a score and a reason per skill; the applicant is a sample.

What changed

“I was amazed with the detailed report presented by Flowmingo after the end of each AI Interview.”

Where this comes from

250+: A 3‑day deadline was the starting challenge, not a confirmed hiring result.

Full testimonial

“I used Flowmingo when I had 250+ candidates who had applied and I had to close the role in 3 days. Its humanly impossible to reach out to each one of them.

A 15 years veteran in the field of Talent Acquisiton I always believe that calling a candidate and listening to their experience, the way they present it is always different than whats written on the resume.

I uploaded a csv file with all the 250+ candidates and let Flowmingo work its magic. The best part I could reach out to candidates only during work hours thats when even candidates are at work so cant discuss openly.

Flowmingo gives that edge of 24-7 availablity along with follow ups to take up the virtual AI Interview.

I was amazed with the detailed report presented by Flowmingo after the end of each AI Interview.

The best part about Flowmingo its absolutely FREE and the reports gives you a good judgement and a written and video proof of the capability of the candidate with regards to the role.”
