You spend hours interviewing people who look perfect on paper, but once you hire them, you quickly realize that they can’t actually do the job. If this sounds familiar, this post is for you.

Here is why it’s happening

What you have is a screening problem. You’re likely hiring based on resumes alone. The issue with most resumes today is that they rarely reflect a candidate’s real ability. This is because candidates are carelessly using AI tools to polish resumes and mirror your job post word-for-word to cheat the system.

And if you’re using a traditional ATS, it could be contributing to this problem. Most of these systems don’t filter out unqualified candidates upfront. Instead, they rely on keyword matching to score and rank applicants, but candidates are already using AI to polish resumes for those keywords. Therefore, it ends up as AI judging AI, creating zero real value for everyone involved. This means that relying on such traditional ATSs increases the risk of getting a paper-qualified candidate who cannot perform on the job.

So, how can you solve this problem?

You need to make sure the candidates you interview are actually qualified for the job. The best way to do that is to use a screening system that automatically filters out unqualified candidates before they reach your desk and highlights the serious, qualified ones, increasing hiring accuracy.

That is exactly what Workscreen does.  It screens for performance before you get to the interview stage, so you only spend time on candidates who’ve already proven they’re qualified and serious about your job.
