Again I want to make it clear that the AI is not driving any decisions, it just summarizes some data points.
The technical screening call typically happens after an initial screening chat with HR or the hiring manager. The tech screening interview comes in after that.
I tell you, this is not a new idea. The only new bit is that AI is slapped on, but it's been done. There is a reason it's not widespread practice. Be honest with yourself: if a company gave you a contract and they decided to do it like the sticker company, test first then check the resume, you would still take their money.
Also, every company has its own unique need. Are you going to tailor your test for every company? Some will need fast JavaScript, some will need slow, deliberate FP. No single test will cover all of these needs. A serious company would never outsource their initial contact to AI.
