Phone Interview Form Template
Capture structured notes during phone screens so every candidate is assessed on the same criteria.
Phone screens are often the first real conversation with a candidate, but the notes recruiters take during them vary wildly. One recruiter highlights communication style, another focuses on experience, a third goes off-script and covers something different entirely. Without a consistent structure, it's hard to compare candidates or make a case for who should move forward.
A Typeform phone interview form gives recruiters a consistent set of questions to work through during or immediately after each screen. Required fields for key criteria ensure nothing important gets skipped. Conditional logic can show role-specific follow-up questions based on the position being filled. Every completed form is a structured record of that conversation, ready for the hiring manager to review.
Customize the form with your screening criteria, pass/fail thresholds, and any role-specific questions. It takes seconds to pull up on a second screen during a call.
A phone interview form is a structured evaluation tool completed by a recruiter or interviewer during or after a phone screening call. It captures responses to key questions, initial impressions, and a recommendation on whether the candidate should progress to the next stage.
Without a shared structure, phone screen quality varies too much between interviewers and calls. A consistent form improves the reliability of your screening process and makes it easier to compare candidates at the same stage.
Cover the screening dimensions that matter most at this stage:
- Candidate name, position applied for, and date of call
- Current role, notice period, and salary expectations
- Key motivations for exploring a new opportunity
- Confirmation of required qualifications or experience
- Availability for next steps and any scheduling constraints
- Overall recommendation: proceed, hold, or declin
Complete it immediately after the call, before you speak with anyone else or start on the next one. Memory fades faster than most people expect, and the notes you take 30 minutes later are noticeably less accurate than those captured right away.
Yes. Typeform integrates with applicant tracking systems like Greenhouse, Lever, and Workday, so phone screen notes can be routed directly to the candidate's record without manual data entry. Configure the integration for your specific ATS to automate the handoff.
