AI resume screening

Every resume scored against the job, with the reasons written down.

Paste the job description and VeraHire pulls out the requirements. Each resume gets a call on every one, tied to what the resume says, and the pile becomes a ranked list.

What is AI resume screening?

Reading the pile so your team doesn't have to.

AI resume screening is software that reads each application and compares it with what the role needs, so your team starts from a ranked list instead of a stack of PDFs.

Many screeners match keywords or hand back one score with no explanation. VeraHire checks every requirement in your job description on its own and shows the line of the resume behind each call. Nothing is hidden behind the number.

Into the pile

Resumes come in however they already do.

Forward them to the job's own address

Every job gets an email address. Forward a resume to it and the candidate lands in the pipeline, already scored.

Connect your ATS, or don't

VeraHire works alongside 50+ ATS and HRIS platforms, or runs the whole first round on its own.

Scored the moment they arrive

No batch runs and no waiting. The ranked list updates as each new resume comes in.

How it works

From job description to ranked list in four steps.

  1. 1

    Paste the job description

    VeraHire pulls out the role and the requirements on its own.

  2. 2

    Bring in applicants

    Forward resumes, connect your ATS or upload them. Each one is scored as it arrives.

  3. 3

    Interview the best of them

    Optional: invite the top of the list to a voice interview with the AI interviewer.

  4. 4

    Work from a ranked list

    Read the reasons, export the list or push it to your ATS.

What you get back

Every requirement, with the line that backs it up.

VeraHire never asks whether a resume looks good. It checks each requirement on its own and quotes the part of the resume behind every call, so a gap is easy to spot and a strong fit is easy to defend.

Questions

What teams ask about resume screening.

Ask us anything else
Is this keyword matching?

No. VeraHire reads what each resume says about each requirement, so someone who describes the right experience in different words still gets credit.

Can I change the criteria?

Yes. VeraHire suggests the requirements from your job description. You edit, add or remove them before any resume is scored.

Who decides who moves forward?

Your team does. The score and the reasons are guidance. VeraHire never makes the hire.

Do I need an ATS?

No. Forward resumes to the job's own address or upload them. If you run an ATS, VeraHire works alongside it across 50+ integrations.

What does it cost?

$0.25 per resume, after 300 free. The free trial includes 300 resume screens and 30 AI interviews, no credit card. Monthly plans include more screens; see the pricing page.

Has it been checked for bias?

Yes, by an independent auditor. Joellie AI audited the resume screening and interview analysis to the NYC Local Law 144 standard. Read about the audit.

In their words

What hiring teams say after the first round.

“The AI interview and resume analysis have already saved us about two weeks of work by providing us with five suitable candidates for the assignment. The job was posted only this past Friday, and we're already making great progress.”
