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

That's a wrap: Where Zia saves you the most time

Scenario	Zia enhancement that saves time
Hiring across multiple regions	Multilingual resume summaries
Back-to-back interviews	AI-assisted note writing
Reviewing high volumes of recorded interviews	Automated transcripts & summaries

From multilingual summaries to polished notes and auto-generated interview transcripts — Zia continues to shape a recruiting experience that keeps pace with the real world. Whether you’re reviewing resumes, documenting feedback, or evaluating recorded interviews, Zia helps you focus on what matters most: the right talent.

Try this challenge

Pick one of these new Zia upgrades and try it in a real-world scenario this week:

✨ Multilingual profile summaries for global hiring

✨ AI-powered notes after interviews or client calls

 You might be surprised how much time you get back every day.
