Job description

Job Title: Candidate Screening Assistant

Monthly Pay: PKR 62,810 - 148,880 per month

Summary:

Begin with one candidate's application, then use a friendly phone call to understand their interest and basic fit. Assigned applicant lists and requests for return calls provide your work. You follow approved questions, record answers, and arrange an interview when the candidate meets the recruiter's screening rules. Your goal is a clear path from first contact to a prepared recruiter interview. A recruiting team lead teaches the call process and helps you handle unfamiliar questions. You work from home through a fully remote setup focused on phone calls and interview arrangements. The role pays a monthly base salary plus bonus opportunities.

Job Responsibilities:

• Review approved screening questions before opening your assigned list in an applicant tracking system such as Lever. This system stores candidate details and progress.
• Call applicants through a business phone system or dialer such as JustCall. Introduce yourself and explain why you are calling before asking questions.
• Ask about interest, availability, a quiet workspace, and spoken English. Follow the same question order and write clear answers during each conversation.
• Compare answers with the recruiter's simple rules. Mark the candidate as ready for the next step, not now, or not a fit.
• Explain the next step in plain language. Answer basic questions from approved notes and pass unfamiliar questions to the recruiting team lead.
• Book ready candidates through a scheduling and calendar tool such as Calendly. This tool shows available interview times and keeps bookings together.
• Confirm the interview date, time, and joining instructions before ending the call. Check that the candidate understands what happens next.
• Send a short reminder before the interview. Call candidates who miss their interview and help arrange another suitable time when needed.
• Update each applicant tracking entry after contact. Include answers, the call result, and the next step; pass completed notes to recruiters before interviews.
• Keep candidate entries tidy and private. Mark wrong numbers, repeated entries, and withdrawals so the next person sees the correct status.
• Quality is judged by accurate notes, polite calls, correct bookings, and quick follow-up. Review your work and correct errors with guidance.

Qualifications:

• Professional spoken and written English, because calls are generally with candidates and teams in the United States.
• A computer, a mobile phone, a stable internet connection, and reliable electricity.
• No recruiting experience required. Phone support, customer service, scheduling, or administrative experience is preferred.
• A calm, friendly phone voice and patience when candidates need a question repeated or explained.
• Willingness to learn the named applicant tracking, phone, and scheduling tools through guided practice.
• Basic understanding of candidate screening: ask approved questions, record answers, and follow recruiter instructions.
• Care when entering answers, checking dates, and matching interview details with the correct candidate.
• Ability to listen without interrupting and write short notes that another team member can understand.
• Respect for candidate privacy and readiness to ask for help rather than guess an answer.
• A fully remote role where you work from home and support candidates by phone.
• Structured onboarding and guided training on Lever, JustCall, and Calendly, with practice using the call outline.
• Regular check-ins with the team lead to review questions and strengthen your screening approach.
• Growth opportunities within the team as you develop screening, scheduling, and candidate support skills.
