Can candidates opt out of the AI interview process?

Last updated: October 16, 2025

Yes – candidates can opt out at any point, and doing so will not affect their eligibility to be hired or move forward in the process.

Here’s how we ensure transparency:

  • Throughout the text, email, and phone interactions, we clearly state that the candidate is speaking with an AI assistant.

  • This helps create an honest and positive experience — candidates always know who (or what) they’re talking to.

  • If a candidate chooses to opt out, they are moved to a designated stage in your ATS (e.g., “AI Opt-Out”) so your recruiting team can follow up manually.

  • The initial text message and outreach language can be customized by job or location to reflect your brand’s tone and candidate experience goals.
