Customer story

Built for high-volume, hard-hat recruiting.

— Telecom & low-voltage staffing firm (name pending approval)

A multi-recruiter telecom and low-voltage staffing firm runs its Spanish-language candidate screens through TalkTool:

  • Each recruiter works from a dedicated translated line, so callbacks land with the right person.
  • A custom terminology glossary covers fiber, structured cabling, and certification vocabulary, so technical screens stay precise.
  • Every screen produces an English/Spanish dual transcript the team files with the candidate record.

Built for recruiting teams

Everything a bilingual recruiter would do — without hiring one per language.

Dedicated numbers per recruiter

Every recruiter gets their own translated line. Candidates call back the same number and reach the same person — with interpretation already on the call.

Custom terminology glossary

Load your trade vocabulary — certifications, equipment, job titles, site terms — so the interpretation uses the words your industry actually uses.

Dual-language transcripts

Every screen and onboarding call is saved as a side-by-side transcript in both languages, plus an AI summary — ready for the client file or compliance record.

No scheduling interpreters

No booking windows, no minimum billing increments, no interpreter no-shows. Dial the candidate the moment their application lands.

How it works

A normal phone call, for both sides.

01

Call the candidate like you always do

Dial from your TalkTool number or the dashboard. The candidate answers a normal phone call — nothing to install or explain.

02

Both sides speak their own language

The recruiter speaks English; the candidate speaks Spanish, Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, or any of 60+ languages. Each hears the other translated in about two seconds.

03

The record writes itself

After hang-up you have a dual-language transcript and an AI summary: availability, certifications, transportation, start date.

Questions, answered

Nothing new for your candidates.

And very little changes for your recruiters.

Does the candidate need to download an app?

No. Candidates answer a regular phone call on any phone — mobile, landline, or prepaid. All of the translation happens inside the call itself, so there is nothing for them to install, click, or configure.

Which languages does TalkTool support?

More than 60 languages, including Spanish, Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Mandarin, Tagalog, Arabic, and Ukrainian. Every language is included on every plan — there is no per-language pricing.

How much does it cost compared to a human interpreter?

TalkTool translation is $0.30 per minute, compared to $2 or more per minute for over-the-phone human interpretation — and there are no booking minimums or connection fees. Monthly plans start at $149/mo and include a dedicated phone number.

Can each recruiter have their own number?

Yes. Plans include dedicated phone numbers you can assign per recruiter or per branch, so candidates always call back the right person and every call is translated automatically.

Can it handle industry-specific terminology?

Yes. You can load a custom terminology glossary — trade certifications, equipment names, job titles, and site vocabulary — so interpretation for telecom, construction, or agricultural roles uses the correct terms instead of literal translations.

How fast is the translation? Does the interview feel natural?

Interpretation follows each speaker with roughly a two-second delay, similar to working with a fast consecutive interpreter. Both sides speak naturally and hear the other side in their own language.

Do I get a record of the interview?

Every call produces a transcript in both languages plus an AI-generated summary, stored in your dashboard. Recruiters can search past screens and share notes with account managers or clients.
