How it works

From job listing to shortlist in an afternoon.

Publish a job, or autofill it from a job listing PDF. Share one link, and every application runs through this.

  1. 01

    Application

    A candidate uploads a CV through your job's link.

  2. 02

    Checked against the job

    Every requirement is cross-referenced with the CV.

  3. 03

    Follow-up questions

    Where the CV is vague, the candidate gets up to three questions.

    • Software Engineer

      You mention a payments service. Can you link the repo?

    • Lawyer

      Associate at Smith & Co: which practice areas did you cover?

    • Nurse

      Staff nurse at St Mary's: which ward, and what patient load?

    • Product Designer

      Which of these projects did you lead end to end?

  4. 04

    Scored against your requirements

    Each requirement scored, with the passages that back it.

  • Requirement-by-requirement scores

    See exactly which requirements a candidate meets, and why, instead of a single opaque number.

  • A pipeline your team shares

    Move candidates through stages, assign each one to a teammate and leave notes with @mentions.

  • Live as it happens

    Scores appear as CVs come in. Identical CVs reuse their score instead of being processed twice.
