Creating a new job
Creating a job is a 5-step process: First, tell Hero about the role you're hiring for and AI will generate a job description. Then confirm your screening criteria (experience, skills, education, etc.) and rank them by importance. Next, add pre-screen questions to filter out dealbreakers. Finally, review and activate your job. After activation, you'll get a checklist to post on LinkedIn and Indeed with your unique application link. This link will send candidates to your job posting, where they can apply for the position and start being vetted automatically.
Screening existing resumes
Click 'Screen existing resumes' from the dashboard and enter the job title along with your existing job description. Then upload the resume files you want Hero to screen. Hero will analyze each resume and show you which candidates are qualified.
Understanding AI scores
Hero analyzes each resume against your job criteria and assigns a match score. Higher scores indicate better alignment with your requirements. You can view detailed breakdowns of how each candidate scored on individual criteria.
Custom evaluation criteria
When setting up a screening, you can customize the criteria Hero uses to evaluate candidates. Add, remove, or modify criteria like skills, experience level, education, and more to match your specific hiring needs.
Ranking candidates
After screening, Hero ranks candidates based on their overall match score. You can also adjust the weight of different criteria to change how candidates are ranked. Use the filter options to re-rank based on updated priorities.
Multi-point vetting
Hero goes beyond resume screening with a questionnaire, video responses, and a personality assessment. This ensures every interview you conduct is with a pre-qualified candidate likely to be a great fit.
Account settings
Access your account settings from the user menu in the dashboard. Here you can update your profile information, change your password, and manage notification preferences.
Two-factor authentication
Hero uses email-based verification for added security. You'll receive a 6-digit code via email when your account is first set up. Manage your verification settings from your account settings.
How does AI resume screening work?
Hero uses advanced AI to analyze each resume against your screening criteria. It focuses on results, accomplishments, and success metrics to identify candidates who can actually do the job. This helps you quickly surface top talent without manual review.
Setting up screening criteria
When creating a new job, you can define custom criteria that matter most for the role. Add specific skills, years of experience, certifications, or any other qualifications. You can also assign weights to prioritize certain criteria over others.
Interpreting candidate scores
Each candidate receives an overall match score (0-100) based on how well their results, achievements, and success metrics align with your criteria. Higher scores indicate stronger matches. Click on any candidate to see a detailed breakdown showing how they scored on each individual criterion.
