Ranking · Candidate scoring software

Candidate scoring software that is consistent and defensible

Candidate scoring breaks down the moment two reviewers grade the same resume differently. Without a shared, explicit set of criteria, a score reflects the reviewer's mood and instincts as much as the candidate, and the numbers cannot be compared or defended.

CONSISTENT CRITERIA RANKED PILE ATS-READY

Human-in-the-loop you decide

EEOC and LL144 bias-audited

Prescreener brings consistent candidate scoring to the inbound pile. It reads every resume, applies your knockout and eligibility criteria, and scores role-fit against the same defined rubric for every candidate, then ranks the pile with a transparent reason behind each score. Recruiters review the ranked results and make every decision, since nothing is auto-rejected. The scoring is bias-audited for EEOC and NYC Local Law 144 and runs with candidate consent and AI disclosure, so the numbers hold up under scrutiny.

Why it works

What your team gets with candidate scoring software

One rubric for all

Every candidate is scored on the same defined criteria, so the scores are comparable across the pile rather than shaped by who reviewed whom.

Reason per score

Each score links to the criteria and resume evidence behind it, so a number is explainable rather than something you have to trust blindly.

Scores feed the rank

Role-fit scores drive the ranking, so the prioritized shortlist is a direct, auditable result of the criteria you set.

What it handles

Parsed, scored and ranked on autopilot

Prescreener reads every inbound resume, applies your knockout and eligibility criteria, asks the screening questions you set, scores role-fit against consistent criteria, and ranks the applicant pile so your recruiters review the top matches first.

Why Prescreener

One step that screens the whole inbound pile

Not a full ATS, not a six-figure assessment suite, and not a staffing agency. Parse, score, rank and hand off in one place, shaped to the criteria you already hire on.

Reads every resume

Prescreener parses every inbound application, applies your knockout and eligibility criteria, and asks the screening questions you set. Applicants consent and are told AI is screening their application, so no qualified person sits in a backlog for days.

Scores role-fit consistently

Every applicant is scored against the same criteria, with a transparent reason on each candidate, so the pile is compared consistently and the scoring stays bias-audited against EEOC guidance and NYC Local Law 144.

Ranks the pile

The strongest matches rise to the top of a ranked pile your recruiters review first. Prescreener never auto-rejects, it ranks and flags candidates for review, and your team makes every decision.
