HR and talent teams · Two-way candidate matching
Match candidates to tasks, and tasks to candidates
Outside candidates are ranked with the same rules and facts as your own people, so HR and managers compare like with like. Blockers are written in plain words.
The problem
Candidates are screened by hand against one role at a time, and good people who'd fit a different open task are never considered for it.
How it works
- 1Open a task to see outside candidates ranked by fit, with must-have skills, level match and domain history.
- 2Open a candidate to see every open task they fit.
- 3Blockers read like “can join 6 Nov; task needs 16 Oct”.
- 4HR can put a candidate forward to a manager without waiting to be asked.
What's included
Two-way candidate matching
Score a candidate against every open task, or a task against every candidate, with plain blockers such as “can join 6 Nov; task needs 16 Oct”.
Suggest a candidate to a manager
HR can check a resume against a specific task and put a candidate forward without waiting to be asked.
