Reviewed by the MyZone AI team. Hiring admin handled: a consistent rubric, evidence laid out, and you decide. ## At a glance - **You start:** A short chat about what the role really needs - **The rubric:** A few job-related criteria that you sign off before any application is read - **Each application:** Mapped criterion by criterion, with the applicant's own words quoted as proof - **Interviews:** Slots proposed, times held, invites prepared, plus a prep pack and scorecard - **Candidate emails:** Drafted at every stage; a person reviews and sends each one - **What it never does:** Score, rank, shortlist, recommend or send anything to a candidate ## What the Recruiting Coordinator does - **Builds a consistent rubric for each role:** From a short intake chat it drafts a handful of job-related criteria with clear anchors and structured interview questions, ready for your sign-off. - **Maps every application to the rubric:** Each application is checked criterion by criterion as met, partial or not evidenced, with the applicant's own words quoted as proof. - **Shows candidates side by side:** A one-pager per applicant and a comparison table in the order people applied, so you compare evidence, not a score. - **Books interviews:** It checks interviewer availability, proposes slots, holds times and prepares invites, plus a prep pack and a scorecard for each interviewer. - **Drafts every candidate email:** Acknowledgements, interview invites, updates and outcomes are drafted from friendly templates. A person reviews and sends each one. - **Keeps the hiring record tidy:** Pipeline status, pending actions, a log of every human decision and reminders when candidate data is due to be deleted. ## How the Recruiting Coordinator differs from screening applications by gut feel Sorting a full inbox by gut feel favours whoever is easiest to read, and it leaves no record of why. The Recruiting Coordinator reads every applicant against the same signed-off, job-related criteria and quotes their own words as evidence. It shows candidates side by side, never scores, ranks or recommends anyone, and logs who decided what. Candidates are told an AI assistant helps organise the process. How this differs from the People Ops Lead (https://myzone.ai/pages/agents/ai-people-ops-agent): For onboarding, staff records and HR questions once you have made the hire, use the People Ops Lead. ## How it works 1. **Describe the role** (When you open a role): A short intake chat covers what the job really needs. It drafts the criteria and flags any that could act as a proxy for something unfair. 2. **Sign off the rubric** (you approve) (Before any application is read): You read the rubric and approve it in your own words. Applications are only reviewed once you have signed it off. 3. **Tell candidates first** (Before applications are mapped): Each applicant gets an acknowledgement explaining that an AI assistant helps organise the process and how to ask for a review without it. 4. **Lay out the evidence** (Once the notice has gone out): Applications are mapped to your rubric with quoted evidence, and you get one-pagers and a side-by-side table to review. 5. **You decide, it organises** (After you review the evidence): You choose who moves forward. It books the interviews, prepares the packs, drafts the emails and logs your decision. ## When to use it - **You are hiring for the first time in a while:** Get a clear, job-related rubric and interview questions in one conversation instead of starting from a blank page. - **A job ad brought in a pile of applications:** Each one is mapped to the same criteria with quoted evidence, so you can review them consistently and quickly. - **Scheduling interviews is eating your week:** It finds slots that suit your interviewers, holds the times and drafts the invites for you to send. - **You want a consistent, defensible process:** Same criteria for everyone, no protected traits used as reasons and a log of who decided what and why. - **You made the hire:** It drafts the remaining candidate emails and prepares a short handover line for the People Ops Lead to start onboarding. ## What you get - A signed-off, job-related rubric with structured interview questions - A per-criterion evidence map for each application, with quoted proof - Applicant one-pagers and a side-by-side table in the order people applied - Interview slots, holds, invites, prep packs and scorecards - Draft candidate emails at every stage, ready for a person to send - A hiring record with pipeline status, a decision log and data deletion reminders ## Example: hiring pack for one role Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Any resemblance to a real company or person is unintended. What it was asked: Help me hire a licensed residential electrician: set up a clear rubric, lay out the applicants against it and get interviews booked. This is an illustrative example of the hiring pack Recruiting Coordinator is being built to produce: a signed-off rubric, a side-by-side evidence table in application order, interview logistics and candidate email drafts. It was written by hand from the agent's design for an invented contractor with invented applicants and figures. No real candidates, inboxes, calendars or systems were involved, and nothing was sent or booked. Run date: 14 October 2026. ### What it found - The rubric has six job-related criteria; three proposed proxies, including "good culture fit" and "lives within 20 km", were rewritten or removed before the owner signed off. - Five of six applicants were mapped criterion by criterion with verbatim quotes and no scores; one asked for review by a person only, and one file's hidden text was excluded. - The owner chose three applicants for interview; slots are held for 21 and 22 October and three invites are drafted, with none sent until the owner sends them. ## Guardrails - Your Ai1 team will tell you when the Recruiting Coordinator is ready for your account. - It never scores, ranks, shortlists or recommends candidates, and never rejects or advances anyone on its own. A person makes every hiring decision. - It never sends an email. Every candidate message is a draft that a person reviews and sends. - It never infers or uses protected traits, emotion or personality, and never treats a name, photo, address or school as a reason. - Candidate data stays private, is never published or shared by link and is flagged for deletion when it is no longer needed. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is an applicant screening rubric and why use one? A short list of job-related criteria, each with clear anchors, that every applicant is read against. It keeps reviews consistent and avoids unfair shortcuts. The Recruiting Coordinator drafts the rubric from a short intake chat and reviews applications only once you have signed it off. ### How can interview scheduling be automated safely? By letting software do the checking and holding while a person sends. The Recruiting Coordinator checks interviewer availability, proposes slots, holds times and prepares invites, a prep pack and a scorecard for each interviewer. You review everything before it goes out. ### What should hiring pipeline tracking include? Where each candidate stands, which actions are pending and who decided what and why. The Recruiting Coordinator keeps that record, with a log of every human decision and reminders when candidate data is due to be deleted. ### What does an AI recruiting coordinator do? It handles hiring admin: a job-related rubric for each role, evidence from every application mapped to that rubric, interview scheduling, prep packs and draft candidate emails. People make every decision. ### Does it rank or score candidates? No, never, even if you ask. It shows each applicant's evidence against your criteria side by side, in the order they applied, so you can compare and decide yourself. ### How does it keep hiring consistent? Every applicant is read against the same signed-off, job-related criteria. It flags proxy criteria like culture fit or graduation year, and it never uses protected traits, names, photos, addresses or school prestige as reasons. Rules on using AI in hiring are growing in places such as New York City, Colorado and the EU. The Recruiting Coordinator never makes a hiring decision, and your counsel should confirm what applies where you hire. ### Do candidates know an AI is involved? Yes. Each applicant gets an acknowledgement first that explains the AI's role and how to ask for a review without it. Their applications are only mapped after that notice has gone out. ### Will it email candidates or book interviews on its own? It drafts every email and prepares interview holds and invites, but a person reviews and sends each message. Nothing goes to a candidate without you. ### Is the Recruiting Coordinator available now? Not yet. Your Ai1 team will tell you when the Recruiting Coordinator is ready for your account.
