So if you don't get the other info and the applicant doesn't want to do the phone screening do they even have a chance at getting the job?
If not, then it's not optional is it?
Optional on our end. We skip it 90% of the time.
Phone screen is basically a 10 minute check if a candidate has any idea about stuff in their resume or is it complete BS and they are not worth getting one of the senior employees to interview them.
Didn't really address my point there, but thank you for explaining what a phone screening is.
