How to Review Candidates in AI Resume Screening

This guide walks you through each step of the Resume Screening results

Updated this week

Once your job is set up with Resume Screening, you can begin reviewing candidates and understanding how their resumes were evaluated.

View candidates in the Screening tab

After resumes start coming in, candidates will appear in a table under the Screening tab.

When a candidate first appears, their Status shows In progress while the resume is being screened.

Once the analysis is complete, the Status updates to Completed.

From here, you can do a few things:

Preview a candidate at a glance

Hover your cursor over a candidate’s name to view a brief overview of their profile.

Review overall pool performance

Go to the Performance sub tab to see how your candidate pool performs against the requirements defined for the job.

This helps you identify how well the group aligns with the role.

Adjust criteria weights

If certain requirements are more important than others, you can adjust their weighting.

Click Criteria to open the weighting panel.

Increase or decrease the importance of individual criteria, then select Apply Weights to update the scores.

Use filters to refine your list

Filters allow you to focus on candidates who meet specific conditions, such as relevant work experience or their most recent company.

Click on the specific topic, and set up your requirement. Then, click Apply.

Make bulk decisions

To move multiple candidates at once:

  1. Select the candidates in the table and click Advance.

  2. Choose the stage you want to move them to.


    The stages shown here are an example. Performing this action on your end means the pipeline stages defined for this job in your ATS will show instead.

  3. Click Advance Candidates.

Their Status will update to Advanced in the Evaluation tab.

  1. To reject candidates, follow the same steps but select Reject.

  2. Choose a rejection reason.

  3. Click Reject Candidates.

Their Status will change to Rejected in the Evaluation tab.

Review candidates individually

Click a candidate’s name to open their full profile.

At the top, you will see their match score and how they compare with other candidates for the job.

Scroll down to review each job criterion. You can expand each section by clicking on the criterion to see the AI Evaluation and the supporting Evidence behind the score.

Select the numbered bubble to highlight where that evidence appears in the resume.

Use the Advance or Reject buttons in the top right to make a decision.

You can also move between candidates using the navigation buttons.
