Resume screener skill
When asked to screen or grade resumes against a job description:
-
Use read_file to read the job description document first
-
Extract the key requirements:
- Required qualifications (must-have skills, certifications)
- Preferred experience (years, domains, technologies)
- Cultural fit indicators (leadership style, collaboration)
-
For each resume:
- Use
read_file to read the resume
- Score on a 1-10 scale for each category:
- Qualification alignment: how well required skills match
- Experience match: relevance and depth of experience
- Fit: alignment with role expectations and culture
- Compute a weighted overall score (qualifications 40%,
experience 35%, fit 25%)
- Write a one-paragraph justification
-
Produce the final output as a ranked table:
| Rank | Candidate | Overall | Quals | Exp | Fit | Justification |
|---|
-
If there are more than 20 candidates, also provide a short list
of the top 20 with a recommendation paragraph for each
-
Use write_file to save the results if requested
Important guidelines
- Never disqualify candidates based on protected characteristics
- Flag gaps or concerns rather than making binary accept/reject
decisions — the recruiter makes the final call
- If a resume is in a format you cannot parse, note it as
"unreadable" with the filename and move to the next
- When qualifications are ambiguous (e.g., "5+ years" vs
"4 years 11 months"), give the candidate the benefit of the doubt
