You've posted your role. Applications are flooding in. Now comes the hard part: reviewing 200+ CVs without losing your mind or missing top talent.
Here's how to screen sales candidates in minutes, not hours, using meritt.'s review platform.
Set Up Your Calendar Link First
Before you touch a single application, add your calendar booking link in Settings. This is crucial. When you want to interview someone, meritt. sends them your link automatically. No back-and-forth emails, no scheduling chaos.
Pro tip: Create a dedicated Calendly link for interviews. Use 15-minute slots with 15-minute breaks. End weak interviews early, extend strong ones, and book next steps immediately.
Access Your Applications
Click Jobs in the left sidebar, select your role, and hit "Start Review." You'll see every candidate who's applied, including 221 video assessments waiting for you.
The Keyboard-Powered Review System
This is where meritt. gets interesting. Everything you need is accessible with keyboard shortcuts:
- Z to switch tabs
- X to play candidate videos
- C to open CVs
- L to open their LinkedIn page
- FullStop/Comma to reject
- Period to skip
- Forward slash to accept and book interview
You can review candidates without touching your mouse. Speed matters when you're competing for top talent.
What You'll See
Every candidate profile shows: languages spoken, quota history extracted from their CV, industry expertise, and unique background details. Click play on their video intro while scanning their summary.
The AI analysis breaks down communication quality, filler words, posture, eye contact, and conciseness. You get "what's good" and "what to consider" for every candidate.
Request Screening Questions
No video assessment yet? Press Q to request one. No CV uploaded? Press V to nudge them. You control the information flow without leaving the platform.
Book Interviews Instantly
Found someone worth talking to? Press forward slash. meritt.'s AI agent messages them: "Congratulations, the employer would love to interview you. Here's their calendar link." Done.
Need to call them first? Press the phone icon. Want to verify their background? Press L to open their LinkedIn profile. Everything's one click away.
The No-Ghosting Guarantee
Here's what makes meritt. different: you cannot ghost candidates. If you don't respond within two weeks, we auto-reject them with feedback. Every candidate gets closure, which protects your employer brand.
Why This Matters
Traditional ATS platforms make you click through 15 screens per candidate. meritt. puts everything on one page with keyboard shortcuts. You'll review 10x faster without sacrificing quality.
The result? You interview better candidates, book them faster, and build a reputation as an employer who respects people's time.
