Common alphaScreen questions

These concise answers are written for employers evaluating alphaScreen before signup.

What is alphaScreen?

alphaScreen is alphaSource AI's web-based candidate screening platform. It helps hiring teams create roles, invite candidates, run structured AI-assisted screening interviews, and review candidate reports before deciding what to do next.

How does alphaScreen work?

Hiring teams choose a membership, complete agreement and checkout steps, set up dashboard access, create roles, invite candidates, and review structured reports after candidates complete screening interviews.

Who is alphaScreen for?

alphaScreen is for employers and hiring teams that want a more consistent first-pass screening workflow before later-stage interviews and final hiring decisions.

Who makes final hiring decisions?

Employers make final hiring decisions. alphaScreen organizes screening information and reports for review, but it does not make automatic employment decisions.

Does alphaScreen replace recruiters or hiring managers?

No. alphaScreen supports early screening and review, but recruiters and hiring managers remain responsible for communication, accommodations, next steps, and final decisions.

How does pricing work?

Public Basic and Pro memberships include a platform membership fee plus a per-role fee. Basic is listed at $299 monthly or $3,299 annually plus $399 per role. Pro is listed at $599 monthly or $6,499 annually plus $699 per role.

What is included in a membership?

Basic includes 20 interviews per role with a 10-minute interview cap. Pro includes 30 interviews per role with a 12-minute interview cap. Additional interviews are listed publicly at $30 for Basic and $35 for Pro.

How do billing and role fees work?

The membership fee covers platform access for the selected cadence. Role fees are charged when paid roles are opened, and additional interviews are billed only when extra interview capacity is needed for a role.

What is first-role prepay?

New self-serve buyers can optionally prepay the first role during signup at a one-time 10% discount. The prepaid first role is used when the first paid role is opened under the same billing account.

How do I get help during setup?

Use the public support page or contact alphaSource at info@alphasourceai.com with the buyer email, company name, and a short description of the setup issue.

How are candidate links sent and managed?

Hiring teams create roles and invite candidates through role-specific screening links or dashboard workflows. Teams should verify candidate email addresses and manage communication consistently with their hiring process.

What happens after a candidate completes an interview?

The hiring team can review the candidate's available resume, interview responses, score context, and report information before choosing the next step.

How are candidate reports used?

Candidate reports are review aids for authorized hiring team members. They help organize screening information so teams can compare candidates more consistently.

Does alphaScreen support accommodations?

Accommodation requests remain part of the employer's hiring process. alphaScreen supports controlled workflows and human review so candidate needs can be routed appropriately.

How does alphaScreen protect candidate data?

alphaScreen is designed around authenticated access, role-based permissions, controlled file and report access, and privacy-conscious workflows for candidate and client information.

How does alphaScreen handle automation and human review?

alphaScreen uses automation to collect, organize, score, and summarize screening information while keeping role setup, candidate review, and hiring decisions with people.

Is alphaScreen designed for dental groups?

alphaScreen is built for structured hiring teams broadly and is a strong fit for dental groups, DSOs, and multi-location operators that need consistent screening across practices or entities.

Can managers use alphaScreen across multiple locations or entities?

Authorized parent-level managers can work across assigned client or entity scopes. Access depends on the membership account structure and role permissions configured for that user.

How does alphaScreen evaluate candidates?

alphaScreen combines role criteria, resume information, structured interview responses, and available interview signals into organized reports and scores. The output is designed to help hiring teams review candidates more consistently, not to make final hiring decisions automatically.
