Compare Candidates
Compare selected candidates using consistent AI-assisted criteria
Candidate Comparison places selected applicants side by side for the same job.
Start a Comparison
- Open a job's Candidate Ranking page.
- Select the candidates you want to evaluate.
- Click Compare Candidates.
- Click Generate Comparison when the selected candidates are ready.
- Wait for the AI-assisted comparison to complete.
Use comparison for a focused finalist group rather than treating it as an automated winner selection.
Comparison Information
The view may include:
- Overall score.
- Skills alignment.
- Experience alignment.
- Education alignment.
- Strengths and potential gaps.
- AI Recommendation.
- Comparative AI insight.
All candidates should belong to the same job so the evaluation context remains consistent.
The comparison consumes the candidates' existing validated scores. It does not rescale, overwrite, or recalculate their persisted assessment scores.
Download the Result
After a comparison has been generated:
- Click Download PDF for a readable report or Download Excel for spreadsheet analysis.
- Wait while Veritik prepares the selected file.
- Store and share the downloaded file according to your organization's candidate-data policy.
The export reflects the generated comparison and does not change candidate data, AI Recommendation, or Recruitment Status.
Interpretation
A higher score indicates stronger alignment with the rubric, not guaranteed job performance. All score fields are percentages from 0 to 100; 8 means 8%, not 8/10. Resume detail, writing style, missing information, and AI limitations can influence the output.
The valid AI Recommendations remain:
- Recommended
- Consider
- Not Recommended
Recruitment Status is not changed by comparison.
Best Practices
- Verify important evidence in each original resume.
- Consider interview results and role-specific requirements.
- Do not rely on protected or irrelevant personal characteristics.
- Record human decisions through Recruitment Status and notes.
- Use the result to prepare further review, not as the final hiring decision.
After comparison, return to Candidate Ranking or open Recruitment Pipeline.
