// The problem
Good applicants are lost in the first round, not the last.
Resumes wait in an inbox. Managers play phone tag between repair orders and customers on the lot. By the time someone calls back, the best technician has taken another offer.
Phone tag eats manager hours
Every first call means reading a resume, leaving voicemails and a 20-minute conversation that often goes nowhere.
Every manager screens differently
Different questions, different notes, different standards between service and sales. Hard to compare, harder to defend.
What Cenivoz does for you
We run the first round. You make the hires.
Eight things that take the screening off your managers' plate, from the moment someone applies to the scorecard on their desk.
Every applicant screened for you
Each resume is read and scored against the job's requirements, with the reasons, the moment it arrives. Cover letters too.
- A match score with the reasoning
- Your must-ask questions, word for word
- Works with any source of applicants
0-100 resume match score, with the reasons
Applicant screeningA real interview, by phone or web
A structured, role-specific interview of about 15 minutes for every applicant, with follow-ups on their own experience. A phone call or any browser: their choice.
- Playbooks for 28 dealership roles
- In English or Spanish
- Never discusses pay or promises an outcome
24/7 nights, weekends and holidays

- No phone tag, no after-hours calls
- Work out your own numbers in the calculator

From application to scorecard in about half an hour.

Hiring assistant
An assistant that gets the work done. Just ask.
Type or say what you need. The assistant answers from your own applicants and interviews, and drafts the changes for you: nothing happens until you press Confirm.

- "Send interview links to everyone new for the service advisor job."
- "Create a diesel technician job with our usual screening questions."
