Smart Screening

Automatically filter and rank candidates based on your custom criteria and requirements.

What Is Smart Screening?

Hirebee's Smart Screening combines AI resume analysis with configurable knockout questions and scoring rubrics to automatically evaluate and prioritize applicants — so recruiters spend their time on the candidates most likely to succeed, not on sorting through unqualified applications.

AI Resume Analysis & Scoring

Hirebee's AI parses each resume and scores it against the job's requirements — evaluating not just keyword presence but contextual fit, experience depth, and career trajectory. Candidates are ranked automatically, with explanations for each score that help recruiters understand the AI's reasoning.

Knockout Questions & Minimum Requirements

Define must-have criteria as knockout questions at the application stage: required certifications, work authorization, minimum years of experience, or location. Candidates who don't meet minimums are automatically declined with a personalized message — saving recruiter time while treating applicants respectfully.

Scoring Rubrics & Calibration

Build structured scoring rubrics for phone screens and interviews that align all interviewers on what "good" looks like for each role. Rubric-based scoring reduces interviewer bias and produces data that can be compared across candidates and used in calibration sessions.

How Smart Screening Works in Hirebee

As applications arrive, Hirebee applies knockout logic and AI scoring simultaneously, delivering a ranked, filtered candidate shortlist to the recruiter within seconds. Screened-out candidates receive instant automated notifications, maintaining a positive candidate experience even at high volume.
