What a match tells you
What fits, what is missing, what would kill the application, and one sentence you can reuse.
Every match comes with a short piece of writing about that one candidate and that one job. It is meant to be read in fifteen seconds and to be enough to decide whether to pick up the phone.
- What fits: the requirements this person demonstrably meets.
- What is missing: the gaps, named, so you can ask about them.
- Red flags: the things that would end the application, such as a missing permit or a language the role genuinely requires.
- A pitch: one sentence you can reuse verbatim when you present the candidate.
Written in the language of the ad
A verdict about a German-language posting is written in German, and everything else in English. That is deliberate: the words you would repeat to the hiring manager should already be in the language you will repeat them in.
The candidate is never named outside
The verdict is written about a profile, not about a named person: the name and the contact details are stripped before the comparison is made at all. What comes back describes the fit, and it is your system that puts the name back on it.
What if you disagree with a verdict?
Then you are quite possibly right, and the reason the reasoning is shown is so you can see where it went wrong. Because five separate ratings are given instead of one number, a low score can be traced to the dimension that caused it, and that is usually domain or seniority, where a CV understates what someone actually ran. Nothing is ever sent anywhere on the strength of a verdict: it orders your morning, it does not act on it.
