The place to go through the candidate’s recent experience is the interview, not the phone screen. The point of phone screens is to quickly filter out obviously inadequate candidates.
Cv is usually 90% buzzwords and things the person didn’t actually contribute to. Why not figure this out on the first call with him, asking a couple experience related questions instead of letting hr do this (but have zero idea how to interpret them)? And obviously you are supposed to have read and filtered candidates from their CVs, and have this final step before committing to them for the next steps in the process.
Either the candidate could be filtered out by a better application process.
Or if the candidate is straight up lying, they wont be filtered out at this step.
At least in my experience job hunting, a lot of filtering at the call screen stage happens when the recruiter misunderstands the job (e.g. conversations like: How much experience do you have doing X, where X is clearly unrelated to the job you thought you were applying for)
