Sifting through hundreds of resumes for a single role is the most tedious part of a recruiter's job. Candidate Intelligence Scoring automates this entirely.
How the Algorithm Works
Our scoring engine doesn't just look for exact keyword matches. It uses semantic understanding to recognize that a candidate with "React" and "Vue" experience likely understands "Frontend Development" even if the exact phrase isn't on their resume.
The Four Pillars of Scoring
- Technical Proficiency: Evaluated via parsed resume data and GitHub integrations.
- Career Trajectory: Analyzing promotion velocity and tenure at previous companies.
- Availability Probability: Using market signals to predict if they are passive or active.
- Compensation Alignment: Matching their expected salary with the client's budget dynamically.
By relying on Intelligence Scoring, our clients have reduced their time-to-submit by over 60%.
