Executive Summary
PyjamaHR’s AI-powered features—such as Resume Match Scoring and AI Interviewer—are central to streamlining candidate evaluation.

Detailed Overview
What Are AI Models and Scoring in PyjamaHR?
AI Models and Scoring in PyjamaHR refer to automated systems that analyze candidate resumes and interview responses to generate objective, data-driven scores. The two main areas where this applies are:
Resume Match Score: Automatically evaluates how well a candidate’s resume aligns with the job description, required skills, and experience.
AI Interviewer Scoring: Assesses candidate responses in automated interviews, providing a structured evaluation based on predefined criteria.
Why It Matters:
These features help recruiters quickly identify top candidates, reduce manual screening time, and ensure a fair, consistent evaluation process. However, the effectiveness of these models depends on both the quality of your job setup and your feedback on their performance.
Integration with Other PyjamaHR Features
Screening Questions: Enhance AI scoring by adding clear, relevant screening questions.
Job Descriptions: The more detailed and accurate your job description, the better the AI can match candidates.
Candidate Profiles: Scores are visible directly in candidate profiles and can be used to filter or shortlist applicants.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Provide Feedback on AI Models and Scoring
1. Interpreting AI Scores
Resume Match Score:
Found in each candidate’s profile under the applied job.
Categorized as High, Medium, or Low match.
Based on alignment with job responsibilities, primary/secondary skills, and experience.
AI Interviewer Score:
Available in the candidate’s interview report.
Based on responses to structured questions and overall fit for the role.
Tip: Always review the detailed breakdown or rationale behind the score (if available), not just the numeric or categorical value.
