CheriHire
Hire the real thing. Every resume gets an authenticity score (is this fabricated?) and a fit score for the role, each opening into the evidence behind it. Screen hundreds of resumes in minutes, then run the rest of the hire in the same place.
What it actually is
Screening is where hiring quietly fails. A recruiter with 400 resumes and a day to read them is guessing, and the resumes that read best are not always the ones that are true. CheriHire handles the first pass: resumes come in from uploads, folders, an email inbox or your careers page, get normalised, and are scored on two separate questions.
Authenticity asks whether the resume is fabricated, unsupported claims, keyword stuffing, impossible timelines, and no way to contact anyone who could confirm it. Fit asks whether this person suits this specific role. Both open into the evidence, so you can disagree with the score and see exactly why it said what it said.
Nothing is decided automatically. The ranking is decision support. A person still makes the call, and the tool is built to show its reasoning rather than hide it.
Three kinds of user
- Recruiters, screen in minutes, run the whole hire in one place
- Hiring companies, see exactly who your agency submitted, and where each candidate stands
- Job seekers, get a resume health score, apply, and see a real match and shortlist chance
How the screening works
We would rather explain this than call it magic.
Ingest
Resumes arrive from uploads, a folder, an email inbox or your careers page, and are normalised into a consistent structure.
Score
Deterministic matching plus semantic comparison against the role, producing calibrated authenticity and fit probabilities.
Explain
Each score opens into its evidence, strengths, gaps and specific flags, so a human can agree or overrule it.
Hire
Interview rounds, offers, joining and referrals run in the same system, so the decision trail stays intact.
On the honest limits
The authenticity score blends explicit rule signals with an anomaly detector, and the rules carry most of the weight precisely because they are explainable. It flags resumes worth a closer look, it does not prove anyone lied, and it is not a background check. Treat it as a reason to ask better questions, not as a verdict.
Is it right for you?
A good fit if
- You get far more applicants than anyone can properly read
- You have been burned by resumes that did not match the person
- You are an agency and clients want visibility into submissions
- You want screening decisions you can justify afterwards
Probably not, if
- You hire two or three people a year, the overhead will not pay for itself
- You want fully automatic rejection with no human review; that is deliberately not how it works
- You need formal background verification, that is a different kind of service

Try it on a role you are hiring for
Bring a real job description and a batch of real resumes. That tells you more in twenty minutes than any demo dataset will.
