Details

A popular role can draw hundreds of resumes a week, and first-pass screening eats recruiter time while criteria drift between reviewers. This template parses each resume into structured fields, scores it against the hard requirements and preferred qualifications in the job description, and returns a match score, the reasons behind it, and points to confirm.

Screening rules are transparent and adjustable, and the template never uses age, gender, place of origin or other job-irrelevant information as a basis for judgment. Scoring rationale for every resume can be exported for the hiring manager to review.

  • Structured resume parsing (PDF, Word, images)
  • Separate scoring for hard requirements and preferred qualifications
  • Match reasons and points to confirm
  • Excludes sensitive information unrelated to the role
