Screen resumes against the calibrated rubric, rank the shortlist, and produce a client memo — in one session
ZeroTwo scores each uploaded resume against the role's calibrated screening rubric, produces a ranked shortlist with risk flags and missing-information questions for each candidate, and generates a client-ready shortlist memo with evidence-based reasoning — so every submission to the client is defensible, consistent, and faster than manual review.
8 candidates pass all 4 rubric dimensions. I've flagged 3 risks in the Tier 1 group: (1) Jordan M. lists FinTech experience but all of it is consumer — payment infrastructure is not evident; I've added a verification question. (2) Alex R. has the depth but is currently at $155K — $10K above your client's ceiling; compensation check recommended before submission. (3) Sam K. has a 14-month gap — employment context needed before advancing.
Resume screening tools built for recruiting agencies
Every resume scored against the same rubric — not gut feel
ZeroTwo scores every resume against the calibrated 4-dimension rubric built in intake — so the shortlist is based on the same criteria across all 47 resumes, not different recruiters applying different mental models to the same pile of documents.
Risk flags before the client sees a single name
ZeroTwo flags compensation gaps, experience depth questions, employment gaps, and B2C vs. B2B mismatches before any candidate reaches the client — so the submission conversation is about fit and trajectory, not 'why did you send us someone at $155K when the range is $145K?'
Client memo with evidence, not assertions
ZeroTwo produces a client-ready shortlist memo with a cover summary, one-pager per candidate, and evidence-based reasoning for each recommendation — so every submission looks like the work of a senior recruiter, not a resume dump with a subject line.
How to screen resumes and build shortlists with ZeroTwo
Upload the candidate resumes in batch and the role's calibrated screening rubric. ZeroTwo reads each resume against each rubric dimension and begins scoring.
ZeroTwo scores each candidate on all 4 rubric dimensions, calculates a total score, and ranks the full batch — separating the Tier 1 advances from the conditional advances and the do-not-advances. The ranking is based on the same criteria for every candidate.
ZeroTwo flags risks for each Tier 1 candidate: comp above ceiling, experience depth questions, B2C vs. B2B mismatches, employment gaps, and any missing information that requires a verification question before submission.
ZeroTwo produces the full client submission package: a cover memo explaining the shortlist, a one-pager per candidate with evidence-based summary, comp alignment notes, market context commentary, and a recommended interview order.

47 resumes, one rubric, one shortlist memo. Done in one session.
Manual resume screening is slow, inconsistent, and hard to defend to clients when they ask why a candidate was or wasn't included. Use ZeroTwo to screen every batch against the same rubric, flag risks before submission, and produce the client memo that makes the shortlist a conversation, not a question.
