Published

on

Talkpush has launched Sam, the first generative AI-powered voice interviewer, revolutionizing the recruitment process with real-time, personalized interactions. Sam, built on advanced NLP and machine learning technologies, offers a human-like experience by engaging actively, processing candidate profiles instantly, and operating 24/7. This innovation marks a return to Talkpush’s roots in voice technology, enhanced by modern advancements. Sam provides unbiased, immediate feedback and integrates seamlessly with ATS platforms. Accessible via talktosam.ai, Sam adapts to user preferences, promising a tailored recruiting experience while maintaining the crucial human touch.

DUBLIN, July 28, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Talkpush launches Sam, a Conversational Voice AI designed to talk with job candidates in real time using Generative AI. Sam adapts to each candidate and job, delivering a unique, personalized experience. Feedback from candidates interviewed by Sam has been outstanding, with many appreciating the option to initiate the interview on demand and praising its ease of use and ability to listen and adapt.

The longer you work with Sam, the more Sam will sound and act like your perfect recruiter. We believe that hiring is a very personal experience and that every employer should find their own voice to attract the right talent.

Voice: Where It All Started for Talkpush

Talkpush was founded nearly 10 years ago as a voice-based phone interviewing system that leveraged Interactive Voice Response (IVR) technology to pre-screen candidates. At that time, AI technology required a pre-scripted candidate journey following a specific decision tree. Many candidates dropped out of these calls, criticizing the experience as too invasive and impersonal. In response, Talkpush built the world’s first recruitment chatbot on Messenger in 2016 and the first recruitment chatbot on WhatsApp in 2018, allowing candidates to interact via their preferred channel 24/7. As a result, voice quickly fell out of favor.

2024: The Inflection Point in AI Voice Technology

In 2024, advancements in natural language processing (NLP), large language models (LLMs), and machine learning dramatically enhanced voice AI systems, marking a pivotal year for the industry. OpenAI’s voice assistant technology, utilizing models like Whisper for speech recognition, combined with generative language models and advanced text-to-speech systems, enables seamless, human-like interactions. ElevenLabs, with a large Series B funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, has expanded its applications in voice cloning and multilingual support, setting new standards in AI voice technology across various sectors. These developments, alongside contributions from other key players like Groq, signal a transformative era for AI-driven voice solutions, offering personalized, efficient, and scalable innovations. Recognizing that the advancement of technology enabled a much-improved candidate experience, Talkpush launched Sam again offering voice as a preferred communication channel to candidates.
