Resume Screening Assistant
Most resumes are screened on what the candidate claims — rarely on what holds up. This assistant reads each resume against the role's real requirements, verifies the employers and credentials with web search and Apollo enrichment, scores fit, and flags the gaps worth probing. Your team interviews the strongest candidates first, on evidence rather than first impressions.

How it works
- A resume arrives for an open role — uploaded or forwarded — and lands in one place.
- The assistant reads it against the role's must-have requirements, extracting experience, skills, and credentials.
- It verifies the claimed employers and certifications with web search and Apollo enrichment — beyond what the resume states.
- Each candidate is scored for fit and filed as one row, with gaps flagged for your review.

Works with Apollo, Slack
This assistant connects to Apollo, Slack once — no code required. It is not a plain field-copy integration: as data moves, the AI adds a real decision step (classify, extract, prioritize, draft), and a human approves before anything is sent to Apollo.
Frequently asked questions
How does the Resume Screening Assistant verify a candidate's work history?
It uses web search and Apollo enrichment to check the employers and credentials claimed on the resume, going beyond what the candidate states.
Does this assistant automatically reject candidates or send messages?
No, it only scores and flags candidates for your review. You must approve any action before a candidate is advanced or contacted.
Which apps does it connect to for screening?
It connects to Apollo for enrichment and Slack for receiving resumes and notifications.
Can I customize the screening criteria for each role?
Yes, you define the must-have requirements for each role, and the assistant screens every resume against those specific criteria.
How are the screening results presented to me?
Each candidate is filed as a single row with a fit score and flagged gaps, so you can quickly see the strongest candidates and what needs probing.
