Core Capabilities

Everything built into the screening engine

Each feature is designed to cut time, reduce bias, and give you the context to make confident hiring decisions.

Batch Import — Any Source

Upload up to 100 CVs at once from your device or pull directly from Google Drive. Shortlistr auto-parses every PDF and DOC — experience, education, skills, and certifications extracted in seconds.

Three-Stage Vetting Pipeline

Every CV goes through keyword matching, work-experience analysis, and semantic requirements scoring in parallel. The result: a ranked shortlist with a clear, defensible fit score for each candidate.

12+ Career Metrics, Instant

Tenure patterns, job stability, career progression, skills diversity, and more — surfaced automatically so you spot red flags and standout candidates without reading every line.

Section-by-Section Feedback

Every candidate gets a full breakdown: strengths, gaps, and a verdict per CV section. Share it with hiring managers or use it to prep your next interview — no extra work required.

Fully Configurable Scoring

Set a minimum match threshold, define required skills, add tenure expectations, and flag priority companies. Screening adapts to the role — not the other way around.

Ask Anything About Your Candidates

Type a question — "Who has fintech experience and led a team?" — and get an instant answer drawn from every CV in the batch. Semantic search, no filters required.
