Let’s Talk Recruit: Zia is now truly adaptive


Welcome back to the Let’s Talk Recruit series.

In the part 2 post, we explored how Zia has evolved with smarter summaries and seamless AI-assisted content creation. This time, we’re diving into the latest upgrades that take productivity even further — from multilingual insights to instant note-taking and interview summaries.
When we first introduced Zia, the goal was to make the recruiting experience smoother.

Today, Zia is doing more than assisting, it’s listening, learning, and adapting to every stage of the hiring journey!

The big picture — Why these Zia updates matter

Hiring today is fast, global, and collaborative and recruiters need tools that keep up.
Zia now helps you do three critical tasks smarter, Let's delve into it:

 1. Zia Profile Summary — Now they speak user language 

Ever wished resume insights sounded just as natural in your preferred language?
Now they do.
Zia Profile Summary can now generate summaries in six languages — English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese. So whether your talent pool or hiring team spans regions, everyone gets the same clarity without switching between tools.
That’s not all. You can now translate summaries between supported languages instantly. So if a teammate in Madrid shares a profile in Spanish, you can view it in English with a single click.

Bonus: You can translate summaries between supported languages instantly.
A résumé arrives in Spanish? View it in English with a click.  Summaries now load in 5–10 seconds — down from the earlier average of 30 seconds.
Same accuracy. Faster decisions. Learn more


 2. Zia AI Assist for Notes — Clearer documentation in seconds   

Note-taking is essential — but polishing those notes shouldn’t slow you down.

With AI Assist for Notes, Zia can now turn rough bullet points into clean, concise, professional documentation. Whether you’re logging feedback after an interview or sharing an internal update, Zia helps you get to clarity in seconds.

There’s also a new “Remove Redundancies” system prompt, built specifically for notes. It trims repetition and keeps only what matters — making your records easier to read, search, and share across teams.
And thanks to improved processing across the platform, Zia now responds dramatically faster:

And the speed updates?

Assessments: under 20 seconds
Emails, job descriptions, notes, etc.: 30 sec → 5–10 secs. Learn more


3. AI Interview insights  — Transcription & Summaries 

Replay interviews? Not anymore.
With AI Interview Insights, your one-way recorded interviews are converted into accurate text transcripts, along with AI-generated summaries of each response.
Instead of rewatching every minute, you can now scan highlights and focus on evaluating quality.

You’ll be able to:
✔ Read complete interview transcripts without replaying recordings
✔ Skim AI summaries to understand tone, strengths, and main talking points
✔ Add comments or review insights directly in Zoho Recruit for better collaboration

Supported transcription languages include English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Portuguese, Russian, and Italian. Learn more

                                                                                                                Hi Zoho, I have a url link with a parameter. The parameter is including ampersand in some cases (Can be "H&M" or "P&I") When trying to use %26 instead of "&"  (the result I get using EncodeURL()) I get H%26M instead of H&M in the parameter field. How can I solve this? Thanks! Ravid
