How to try it

  1. Create a profile template with fixed headings.
  2. Give the AI the CV and interview notes and ask it to fill the template.
  3. Consultant adds judgement and checks every fact.
  4. Get candidate consent for AI processing in your privacy notice.

⚠️ Watch out

CVs are personal data; AI must not make hiring decisions (EU AI Act treats recruitment AI as high-risk).
