FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Our AI is trained to identify gaps. If information is missing, it doesn't hallucinate — it flags it. When scoring, the engine will never rule anyone out for missing data; rather, their score will be impacted.
Absolutely. Every job posting gets its own scorecard. You can tweak them on the go and your candidates will rescore accordingly. If you found the perfect scorecard for a role, save it and reuse it for similar roles.
The parsing engine standardizes data first. Whether it's a PDF, Word doc, or plain text, we extract the core data points into a unified schema before scoring happens.
Even better — you can create email templates for any scenario, such as rejections, interview invitations, or follow-ups, and dynamically plug in unique data about each candidate.
Every score comes with an 'Evidence' trail. Click on any score to see exactly which lines from the resume contributed to that rating.
Automations are triggered based on the conditions that matter to you. Any of Lighthouse's unique data set can be used as a condition. Once met, actions range from sending supplemental assessments to automating communication and sending HTTP requests to your systems' APIs.
