How is a ‘candidate match score’ calculated?
When a candidate applies for a role, we use AI to evaluate their CV against the job description, to help you make a better decision of who to focus on.
This score is based on an algorithm that considers multiple factors, such as job title and skills highlighted in their experience.You can hover over the score to see whether the candidate is a good match for job title and/or key skills in their job advert.
What does the ‘candidate match score threshold’ mean when I’m creating a new job?
When setting up a job, you can determine the % match you deem a ‘fit match’, which will enable you to pull candidates from your candidate database who are above that threshold into the ‘sourced’ column.
This only happens, if you choose to, job by job. You can set that % on job setup, but nothing further will happen to those candidates (for example, they’re not automatically added to an interview loop), unless action is taken from the job kanban.
Why does a candidate have a score out of 5 on the kanban rather than candidate match score?
Scorecards, which are filled in by interviewers once they have interviewed a candidate, will take precedence over the candidate match score.
