  • Does the Flatchr ATS offer a function for sorting applications by keywords or specific criteria?

    Flatchr ATS does not automatically reject applications without human intervention (in compliance with the AI Act).

    However, thanks to the Flatchr Fitfeature , the solution can identify the most relevant profiles in relation to your offer and move them to the top of the list. This saves you precious time on urgent or high-volume vacancies.

    All other CVs remain accessible in your centralized CV library: no profile is discarded. In this way, you retain total control over your selection process, and can explore atypical candidates or add to your talent pool.

  • Does Flatchr include assessments or tests for candidates?

    Thanks to the Flatchr Skills feature, Flatchr enables you to offer each candidate a dedicated test to assess his or her personality, motivations, communication and work style.

    This information is then synthesized to give you a clear and rapid reading of each profile. The results highlight each candidate's strengths and areas for improvement.

    The profiles that are most compatible with your position automatically rise to the top of the list, accompanied by a matching percentage that enables you to identify the most relevant candidates at a glance.

    These elements also provide you with concrete pointers for preparing your interviews and targeting the subjects to be explored in greater depth.

    If you want to go even further in assessing candidates, we also offer integrations with partners specialized in personality tests and in-depth assessments.
