A person is morethan a PDF.
Portfolio, demos, papers, video and references, read together against your bar.
Portfolio · Demos · Papers · Code · Video · References
Read together. One person, beyond the PDF.
[THE RESUME PROBLEM]
Both sides automated the resume.
Applicants write it with AI. Screeners reject it with AI. A keyword score says how many words matched, and nothing about what the person can do.
01 / WRITTEN BY AI
The applicant writes the CV with a chatbot.
02 / SCORED BY KEYWORDS
The screener counts matches. The line stays flat.
03 / COMPRESSED TO A PAGE
Whatever did not fit the page is what they get rejected for.
[APPLICANT INTELLIGENCE]
Connect the proof across their work.
Everything an applicant shares is read together against the bar. What they did lands on a criterion. What is missing becomes a question.
Built it themselves
PROOF · DEMOShipped to production
PROOF · CODELed a launch
NO PROOF · ASK NEXTStill hands-on
PROOF · REFERENCEEverything they shared, linked to one person.
Portfolio, code, demos, papers, video and references, read as one body of work.
Each criterion gets its proof, with the source.
The bar you agreed at kickoff is the bar every applicant is read against.
A gap is a question, not a rejection.
What the application could not show becomes the first thing the screen asks.
[DOWNSTREAM]
The gap becomes the first question.
Review hands its findings to the next agents. Nobody re-reads the application.
Opens with the missing proof.
02 / MEETING INTELLIGENCECarries the proof into the debrief.
03 / ANALYTICSShows which criterion is hardest to meet.
Your next great hire may write a bad resume. They still get seen.
