Configure Your First AI Resume Screen
1. Set Job Criteria
HiPeople AI automatically pulls your job description from your ATS and suggests initial job criteria.
Criteria Structure:
Title: Internal label to stay organized.
Prompt: This defines how the AI evaluates resumes.
Best practices:
Edit or delete any prompt.
A screen requires minimum 2 and up to 10 criteria.
Learn what makes a good prompt vs. a bad prompt here.
2. Define Screening Limits (Optional)
Set a limit on how many candidates are screened.
Example: For 1,000 applicants, setting a limit of 50 will screen the first 50 (FIFO).
Our recommendation:
Start with 50 candidates to test and refine your criteria.
Once satisfied, remove the limit to ensure all applicants are screened moving forward.
3. Configure Workflows (Optional)
HiPeople supports bi-directional sync with your ATS, meaning all actions in HiPeople (advancing or rejecting candidates) are automatically reflected in your ATS.
Automation options:
Auto-Reject:
Set a cut-off match score and select a rejection reason (options pulled from your ATS).
Auto-Advance:
Set a high match score threshold and select the stage to automatically move candidates to (stages pulled from your ATS).
Before enabling automation, ensure your workflow ATS setup is complete.
