AI Resume Screening Tool
An intelligent resume screening platform that uses NLP to match candidates to jobs while actively mitigating bias in the hiring process.
The Challenge
A large employer struggled with high-volume recruiting:
- Resume overload - 1000+ applications per role
- Inconsistent screening - Different reviewers, different standards
- Hidden bias - Unconscious preferences affecting decisions
- Slow time-to-hire - Weeks just to shortlist candidates
They needed fair, consistent, and fast screening.
Our Approach
We built an NLP-powered platform focused on fair and explainable AI.
Fairness-First Design
