Applicant ranking, done for you

Know exactly who to call first

Two hundred applicants per role. How do you decide who is #1 vs #50 without reading every PDF after dinner? ClearMatch ranks every candidate against the requirements you wrote — with scores and notes for each one.

How the ranking works

Upload resumes, write down what you need, get a ranked shortlist.

Bulk upload

Drop 10 or 1,000 resumes at once. PDFs, Word docs, ZIP files — all handled.

Scored against your requirements

Each candidate scored against the requirements you wrote, not generic keyword matching.

Per-requirement breakdown

See exactly how each candidate matched each requirement. Transparent, no opaque scores.

Ranked list, ready to go

Candidates sorted best to worst. Know exactly who to call first, second, and third.

Plain-English notes

Every score comes with a short note on why the candidate ranked the way they did.

Must-haves weighted heavier

Required criteria carry more weight than nice-to-haves, so the ranking reflects what actually matters.

Why handing off the screening beats grinding through it

10–20 hours back per role

The biggest time sink in hiring, removed. Every resume read in seconds, not hours.

No more buried candidates

You fatigue after 20 resumes. The ranker treats resume #1 and resume #500 the same.

Context-aware skill matching

Related certifications, tools, and transferable experience all count toward the score.

Bias stripped before scoring

Demographic information removed before any ranking. Pure qualification-based.

Minutes, not days

Upload your resumes, get a ranked shortlist in minutes. Not the next morning.

Scores you can explain

Every score comes with a per-requirement breakdown so you know exactly why.

Reading them yourself vs handing it off

  • Fatigue after the first 20 PDFs
