The detailed workflow

What happens after a candidate applies.

Résumé, text, and video screening each feed one BenchMark. AI evaluates and ranks; your team decides who to hire.

  1. 1

    Create the role and set your requirements

    Add the position, location, benefits, and hiring manager. Your requirements become the standard every applicant is measured against.

    Share your branded careers page

    Publish the opening to your branded careers page and share one application link everywhere you recruit.

  3. 3

    AI Screening reviews the résumé in real time

    The moment someone applies, their résumé is evaluated against your requirements and their BenchMark begins building.

  4. 4

    Text screening, using your questions

    Candidates answer your pre-screening questions by text while interest is highest. Responses are evaluated and added to the BenchMark.

  5. 5

    Video interview for candidates who qualify

    Candidates who meet the minimum qualifications are invited to record answers to your video questions, evaluated on relevance and substance.
