AI CV screening: from 100 applications to 10 interviews in one day
A popular role receives 80–150 CVs. A recruiter spends 2–3 seconds per CV before the first filter — and still lets some strong candidates slip through. AI screening is consistent, fast and tireless.
How AI scoring works
Defining role criteria
The recruiter sets when opening the position:
- Must-have: Python, 3+ years ML, SaaS experience
- Nice-to-have: PhD, automotive sector, English C1+
- Red flags: no relevant experience, very short tenures at previous companies

Integration with ATS
AI screening is built directly into Modulario ATS (Applicant Tracking System). The recruiter sees all candidates with their scores and can invite to interview or close a rejected application with a single click.
