Resume screening

Stop reading resumes written to beat you.

Every inbound CV read against your actual job description, inside Teamtailor or straight from a LinkedIn profile. You will not read an obviously unqualified candidate again, and the borderline calls stay yours.

What it does

Three passes, and the second one is the point.

01

Match against the role

The job description is parsed into real requirements, not keywords. Each one is marked met, partial or missing, with the line from the CV that decided it.

seconds per CV
02

Check whether the person is real

A separate, deliberately sceptical pass. Match score and authenticity are two different jobs, and the second is the one nobody else is running. Shared phrasing, templated employment history, timelines that do not add up.

runs on every CV
03

Reconstruct the trajectory

Roles, tenure, promotions and concurrent positions laid out as a timeline, so a career that reads coherent on paper and strange in sequence stops being invisible.

included

You keep the conversations. We do the reading.

Nothing is auto-rejected on your behalf. Obvious no's are removed, worth-a-conversation is surfaced, and anything in between comes back with the evidence attached so a human decides. Your recruiters keep every relationship they have and stop forming technical opinions they were never equipped to form.

The report

What a screened candidate looks like on your screen.

Requirements met and missed, the authenticity pass, and the reconstructed career timeline, all in one document you can forward to a hiring manager instead of a gut-feel summary.

What it saves

The hours it buys back come out of engineering, not recruiting.

Screening earlier does not just shorten CV review. It removes the technical screens that were only ever going to end in a no, and those hours belong to your senior engineers.

Where it runs

In the tools your pipeline already lives in.

ATS

Teamtailor, natively

Candidates are screened where they already are. No export, no second inbox, no copy-pasting a CV into another tool.

Teamtailor integration
Sourcing

Straight from a LinkedIn profile

Screening a passive candidate needs a link, not a CV. Same report, same rubric, before you spend an intro message on them.

Anything else

A job description and a PDF is enough to start. Other ATS integrations are built on request.
