How Cleverate screens candidates
From CV to short-listed, verified candidates. Every step is logged, explainable, and designed to be hand-off ready for human recruiters.
CV ingestion
Candidates email their CVs to a unique Cleverate address. We capture the raw email, attachments and metadata – nothing gets lost.
CV parsing & enrichment
We extract skills, experience, dates, stack and seniority using LLMs plus deterministic rules. The result: a structured candidate profile and skill matrix.
Code & repo checks
If the candidate shares GitHub or other repos, we analyse ownership patterns, commit history and code quality. Forks and copy-paste projects are flagged.
Consistency analysis
We cross-check CV claims against repos, timelines and (optionally) LinkedIn. Date mismatches, inflated titles or duplicated descriptions are surfaced as risk signals.
AI-guided chat interview
Candidates complete a short, structured chat interview. We score technical depth, reasoning, communication – and detect AI-generated answers using timing signals.
Human hand-off & hiring
Recruiters receive a transparent report: scores, skill matrix, risk flags and interview transcript. From here, humans take over: culture fit, final interviews, offer and onboarding.
Cleverate doesn’t replace human hiring decisions. It removes the noisy, repetitive screening so your team can focus on speaking to the best-fit candidates sooner.
For hiring teams & agencies
Cleverate gives you a verified shortlist, not a stack of CVs. We reduce noise so your recruiters can focus on real conversations.
- Faster shortlists – get pre-screened candidates in hours, not weeks.
- Evidence-based profiles – skills mapped to projects, years of use and interview performance.
- Reduced bias – scoring focuses on skills, not where someone worked or studied.
- Plug-and-play – use us as a partner, a shortlist service, or a white-label engine.
For candidates
Good candidates get lost in noisy hiring processes. We give them a way to stand out on skill, not keywords.
- Structured chat interview that lets them explain real projects and decisions.
- Fair evaluation – the same questions, the same scoring logic, for every candidate.
- Reduced guesswork – they know what’s being measured and why.

Human-centred AI hiring
Cleverate is designed around a simple principle: AI handles the volume. Humans make the decisions.
What AI does
- • Reads CVs and extracts skills, projects and signals.
- • Runs structured chat interviews and scores answers.
- • Flags inconsistencies, risk and likely AI-generated content.
- • Treats every candidate with the same criteria.
What humans do
- • Review shortlists and reports.
- • Run live interviews and culture-fit assessments.
- • Decide who to hire, promote or pass on.
- • Build long-term relationships with candidates.
We automate the process, not the relationship. AI reduces noise and bias; your recruiters keep full control of the outcome.
Transparency & fairness by design
- • Consistent evaluation criteria for every candidate.
- • Objective skill scoring backed by evidence from their CV and interview.
- • Clear reports for clients and candidates — no black-box rejections.
- • Human oversight built into every step of the process.
