1. How do you screen for technical skills over the phone?


Ask about specific technologies, certifications, years of experience with each skill, and recent project examples. The key is having consistent criteria across all candidates so you're comparing apples to apples.

2. Can ContactSwing verify candidate availability for contract roles?


Yes. It confirms start date availability, contract duration preferences, rate expectations, and current employment status. This filters out unavailable candidates before you invest time in submissions.

3. What happens when clients call about open positions?


ContactSwing captures detailed requirements, discusses candidate profiles from your database, and schedules calls with your account managers. Client inquiries get handled immediately, even at 7 pm or on weekends.

4. Does it work for reactivating passive candidates?


Absolutely. Reach out to your database of past candidates to gauge interest in new opportunities, update their skills and availability, and identify who's ready to be submitted again.

5. Can I customize screening questions for different tech stacks?

Completely. A Java developer role has different qualifying questions than a cybersecurity position. Each job can have unique criteria, knockout questions, and workflows in ContactSwing.
