Candidate intelligence

The ATS built for a world where CVs can no longer be trusted.

AI-generated applications have flooded every funnel. Polished CVs no longer signal real capability. Synethos replaces keyword filtering with evidence-based selection at scale, without slowing down.

One process, four winners

Every stakeholder gets what they've never had before.

Recruiters

Before

  • 100+ applications — heavy manual effort
  • AI-tweaked CVs blur real depth
  • CV + motivation letter = weak proxy
  • Time pressure leads to suboptimal picks

With Synethos

  • Assisted CV screening on requirements that matter
  • Fast triage even at high volumes
  • Performance tests assess real skills at scale
  • Shortlisting becomes faster, fairer, reliable

Hiring Managers

Before

  • CVs shared without a structured workflow
  • Each CV formatted differently — hard to compare
  • Unconscious bias affects decisions
  • Poor note capture weakens decision quality

With Synethos

  • Scored, comparable candidate pipeline
  • FIT index + test results on equal criteria
  • Normalised data enables fair comparison
  • Centralised notes and panel feedback

Applicants

Before

  • No transparency on timeline
  • Missing or generic feedback
  • Unclear scoring criteria
  • First filter based on CV only

With Synethos

  • Transparent, continuous process updates
  • Performance tests go beyond CV
  • Clear pipeline position visibility
  • Appreciative feedback that helps growth

The organization

Before

  • Inconsistent hiring quality across teams
  • High mis-hire risk and cost
  • Damaged employer brand from poor candidate experience
  • No structured data on hiring decisions

With Synethos

  • Defensible, consistent hiring standards
  • Reduced bias and mis-hire cost
  • Stronger employer brand via candidate NPS
  • Hiring data that feeds workforce intelligence

Selection logic

Profile fit × performance score = a shortlisting proxy stronger than CV alone.

Synethos combines two independent signals: how well a candidate's profile fits the role, and how they perform on capability tests to produce a composite score that predicts success far better than either alone.

↑ Fit score
Low profile score High profile score →

High CV

Strong profile, lower test performance. Investigate further before shortlisting.

Best fit Shortlist

High profile fit + strong performance. Prioritise immediately.

Low fit

Low on both signals. Deprioritise.

High profile

Strong test performance, lower profile fit. Consider for other open roles.

Profile assessment score →

The applicant experience

Even excluded candidates become advocates.

When the process is transparent, feedback is meaningful, and assessment is fair, candidates who don't get the role still leave with a positive impression of your organisation.

That's employer brand at scale, without an extra budget line. Synethos helps applicants move from unclear, transactional screening to transparent, feedback-driven experiences, boosting candidate NPS even among those not shortlisted.

Organisations using evidence-based hiring report stronger employer brand perception, lower time-to-hire, and reduced mis-hire cost — because better decisions start at the very first touchpoint.
