How Our AI Job Matching Really Works

Here’s the thing: our AI doesn’t just skim your resume and throw out jobs with matching keywords. It weighs multiple factors to find roles that truly fit your background and goals.

Matching Factor Weight Description
Skills Alignment 35% Matches your technical and soft skills to job requirements
Experience Level 25% Considers years and types of previous roles
Salary Expectations 20% Ensures compensation fits your desired range
Location Preferences 15% Accounts for commuting distance or remote options
Company Culture Fit 5% Based on reviews and values alignment

What users tell us is that interacting with recommendations—applying, saving, or dismissing jobs—helps our AI get smarter about what you want. So don’t just ignore suggestions; engage with them.

Streamlining Interviews with Automation

Interview scheduling can be such a pain, but our automation tools simplify it by letting you set your availability and letting candidates pick slots that work for them. Here’s how it plays out:

Automated Scheduling Process

  1. Set the days and times you’re available for interviews.
  2. Choose the interview type: phone, video, or in-person.
  3. Create reusable interview templates with preset questions.
  4. Allow candidates to self-schedule within your available windows.

This cuts down on endless email threads, and the system handles time zone conversions automatically. Reminders go out to everyone involved, so no one forgets.

Template Type Duration Use Case
Phone Screen 15-30 min Initial qualification
Technical Interview 45-60 min Skills assessment
Cultural Fit 30-45 min Team compatibility
Final Interview 60-90 min Decision making

Employers appreciate how standardized scoring across interviews creates a fairer and more consistent evaluation process. Honestly, it’s a game changer for managing multiple candidates.
