Screen Module – Overview

Description

The Screen module provides automated CV analysis, extraction, and normalization of candidate information. It converts unstructured CV documents into structured, standardized profiles that can be used for searching, filtering, and downstream AI-based evaluation.

Screen is designed to streamline the early stages of the recruitment process and support high-volume candidate pipelines with minimal manual effort.

Key Objectives

  • Automated information extraction from CVs, including personal data, work experience, education, skills, languages, certifications, and profile photo.
  • Data normalization using BeTalent’s standardized taxonomies and formatting rules.
  • Improved operational efficiency by reducing manual parsing and review time for recruiters.
  • Bias reduction through data-driven, content-centric analysis rather than subjective impressions.

How It Works – High-Level Workflow

  1. CV Upload A candidate or integrated system uploads the CV (supported formats include PDF, DOC/DOCX, TXT, and image formats).

  2. Automated Processing The Screen module analyzes the document and extracts key information such as work experience, education, skills, languages, and other relevant attributes.

  3. Normalization All extracted data is normalized according to BeTalent’s standard data model to ensure consistency across profiles.

  4. Structured Output The CV is transformed into a structured candidate profile that can be viewed in the platform or consumed by other modules such as Match.

Core Benefits

  • Scalability: Efficiently handles large volumes of CVs with consistent results.
  • Speed: Automates time-consuming manual parsing tasks.
  • Data Quality: Delivers clean, standardized, structured candidate profiles.
  • Operational Efficiency: Reduces recruiter workload during initial screening.
  • Fairness & Objectivity: Supports more equitable evaluation by focusing on factual content.

Ideal Use Cases

The Screen module is particularly useful for:

  • Companies or HR teams managing high volumes of applications.
  • HR Platforms, ATS, or Talent Management Systems that require advanced CV parsing capabilities.
  • Recruitment agencies or staffing firms needing fast, standardized processing of candidate profiles.
  • Organizations seeking to improve data quality and reduce bias in early-stage screening.

Relationship to Other Modules

Screen can operate independently or in combination with other BeTalent modules such as Match:

  • Screen processes and structures CV data.
  • Match uses this structured data to compute semantic similarity between candidates and job descriptions.

Together, Screen and Match provide a complete, AI-enhanced workflow for candidate evaluation and ranking.
