Features of Virtual Recruiter Teri Faster Hiring Process: Teri automates initial outreach through text, email, and phone calls, expediting the recruitment pipeline, enabling quicker response times. Collaborative Human-AI Strategy: While Teri efficiently manages logistic operations, our human recruiters remain integral, providing personalized interactions and dedicated support to ensure a balanced and comprehensive recruitment approach. What to Expect After You Apply Please Note: The scheduling link is active for 3 days post application. If the link expires, you can still complete your pre-screen by calling Recruiter Teri directly at your convenience. If you don't see the email, be sure to check your Spam/Junk folder. Recruiter Teri will contact you from the following email address: Teri.Recruiter@cybercoders.com. We encourage you to complete your screening as soon as possible to keep your application moving forward in the process.  Communication Guidance Missed or Disconnected Calls: Automatically queued for a callback or request a new appointment via text. Blocked Calls: Save Teri's number to prevent diversions to voicemail. Paused Calls: Calls paused for 20 seconds will prompt Teri to disconnect and send a text to reschedule. Opting Out: Send "STOP" via text, email, or phone to discontinue communications with Teri without affecting interactions with human recruiters. Prompt Guidance Repeating a Question: Teri will repeat the question if you say, “Repeat.” Asking for More Time: Say “More Time,” and Teri will pause and wait before checking again to see if you're ready to proceed. Question Adaptation: Say “Reframe or Reword” and Teri will repeat or rephrase the question as needed for clarity. Rescheduling Options: If you need to reschedule the conversation with Teri , you can email or text. How Teri Handles Multiple Applications You may only hear from Teri once—even if you apply to several roles. This is intentional and designed to keep communication efficient. Here's how it works: One outreach, not multiple calls Teri typically contacts you about the first role you applied for. This prevents multiple calls in a short period of time. All your applications are still reviewed Even if Teri only reaches out once, your information is shared with the appropriate recruiters for every role you applied to. Why you might not receive another call If you submit several applications on the same day—or shortly after speaking with Teri — the system recognizes recent contact and avoids duplicate outreach. What happens next A recruiter may follow up by email or phone if your background aligns with any of the positions you expressed interest in. Key Practices for a Successful Virtual Recruitment Experience Do's: Speak clearly and professionally. Prepare essential documents and questions. Ensure your communication device is charged and free from distractions. Request clarification from Teri as needed. Don'ts: Avoid multitasking or using a speakerphone. Maintain professionalism and avoid interruptions. Stay focused without eating or drinking during interactions.
