For recruiters, hiring managers and small teams drowning in applications.
What it does
CV Ranker reads every application the way a careful recruiter would — against the exact criteria you set — and scores it consistently, whether there are 10 CVs or 300. Instead of skimming a pile and hoping you didn't miss anyone, you open a ranked shortlist where each candidate has a score and a one-line reason for their placement.
It reads for meaning, not just keywords, so a strong candidate who phrases their experience differently still surfaces. You keep every decision — the ranking is there to put the right people in front of you first.
What goes in
A job description plus a batch of CVs (PDF or Word). Upload them, or point it at your careers inbox or a shared folder.
What you get back
A ranked, scored shortlist with a short reason per candidate and which criteria each one met or missed — exportable as a top-N list.
What it handles
- Scores every CV against your must-haves and nice-to-haves
- Reads for meaning, so it doesn't miss strong candidates who word things differently
- A transparent reason for each ranking — never a mystery score
- Handles large batches with the same standard applied every time
- Re-run any time new applications arrive
- Files processed transiently and never stored

Common questions
Is this a CV screening tool or a full ATS?
It's a focused CV ranking automation, not an applicant tracking system. It does the reading and scoring; you keep whatever ATS or inbox you already use, and it can read CVs straight from there.
Does it just keyword-match resumes?
No. It reads for meaning against your criteria, so a strong candidate who phrases their experience differently still ranks well. You can still require hard must-haves.
Is automated CV ranking fair?
Applying the same criteria to every CV reduces the fatigue and order effects of manual screening. You define the criteria, see a reason for each ranking, and make the final call.
