CUSTOM SCREENING
Talis evaluates new and existing candidates against the requirements, experience and criteria that matter for the role. Recruiters spend less time reading resumes and more time deciding who moves forward.
THE SCREENING PROBLEM
Recruiters aren't simply looking for keywords. They're trying to answer: Can this person actually do this job?
That means evaluating experience, seniority, technical skills, industry background, career progression and the specific requirements of the role — often across hundreds of candidates. Traditional screening makes that process manual. Talis makes it structured.
HOW IT WORKS
Start with the job description and add the criteria your recruiting team actually cares about.
Talis evaluates candidates against those requirements using the information already available in your recruiting data.
Candidates are ranked according to their fit, helping recruiters focus their attention where it matters.
Open any candidate to understand why they were surfaced, where they match and where potential gaps exist.
ONE SCREENING LAYER
Your best candidate isn't necessarily the person who applied yesterday. Talis can evaluate new applicants, candidates already in your ATS, previously rejected candidates, previously interviewed candidates, sourced candidates, and candidates from previous hiring cycles. The same screening criteria can be applied across your candidate pool.
RECRUITER-DEFINED INTELLIGENCE
A job description might say "5+ years of backend engineering experience" — but your recruiter might actually mean:
EXPLAINABLE EVALUATION
A screening score without context isn't particularly useful. Talis gives recruiters the reasoning behind the evaluation.

Why Talis surfaced him: 7+ years of backend engineering experience, strong Python and AWS background, 5 years in B2B SaaS environments.
CONSISTENT SCREENING
Different recruiters shouldn't have to interpret the same requirements differently. Talis gives your team a consistent evaluation framework across candidates and roles.
WORKS WITH YOUR ATS
Talis isn't another ATS. It sits on top of the recruiting infrastructure you already use and adds an intelligence layer for candidate evaluation. Your existing candidate data stays useful. Your recruiters keep their existing workflow. Talis handles the analysis.
Give recruiters a faster way to identify the candidates worth their attention.
