Use Case

Hiring teams struggle to learn who applicants really are from resumes alone, especially with high-volume pipelines. CLARA automates pre-screening and enriches applicant profiles using AI so recruiters can focus on interviewing. It evaluates beyond job titles and dates to surface skills, potential, and soft factors (e.g., learning agility, distance traveled), sends automated follow-up questions to clarify experience, and reduces bias by anonymizing profiles before review. This helps overworked TA teams eliminate manual resume reviews, prioritize top candidates, and make fairer decisions faster.

Talent acquisition teams struggling with high application volumes, inconsistent resume reviews, and keyword-based ATS shortlists miss skills-aligned and diverse candidates. CLARA’s AI screening and assessments help teams filter the noise to quickly surface top candidates based on skills, experience, and role requirements, apply consistent evaluation frameworks, and reduce unconscious bias via redaction and skills-based scoring—speeding up time-to-hire without sacrificing quality. Ideal for mid-market companies that need enterprise-quality screening without long implementations or per-candidate fees.

Also suitable for larger organizations using enterprise ATS platforms (Greenhouse, Lever, SmartRecruiters, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, etc.).
