How ATSCheck uses AI
Who does what
| Task | Done by | Safeguard |
|---|---|---|
| Reading your resume | ATSCheck | If a document cannot be read reliably, we tell you rather than guess. |
| ATS compatibility findings | ATSCheck | Each finding comes with a plain explanation of why it matters. |
| Separating job requirements | ATSCheck | HR users review and confirm requirements before candidates are analysed. |
| Matching evidence to requirements | AI-assisted | Every quote shown is checked against your resume. Anything we cannot find in it is not shown. |
| Calculating scores | ATSCheck | AI does not choose the number. The same resume and job give the same result. |
| Recommendations and rewrite suggestions | AI-assisted | Checked for claims your resume does not support. Suggestions keep your facts. |
| Cover letters | AI-assisted | Based on what your resume shows, and checked for unsupported claims. |
| Interview questions (HR) | AI-assisted | Kept job-related and never about protected characteristics. |
| Hiring decisions and pipeline changes | People | ATSCheck never makes, recommends or automates them. |
Principles
Rules the AI works within
The number is never invented
AI does not decide your score. Scores are calculated consistently, so the same resume and job description give the same result.
Evidence must exist
A quote is shown only if it appears in the resume. If nothing supports a requirement, ATSCheck says “No evidence found in the supplied resume” — which describes the document, not the person.
Writing must be truthful
Rewrites and cover letters may clarify and restructure what you wrote. They must not add employers, dates, tools, results or responsibilities.
No hiring decisions
ATSCheck never rejects, ranks or moves a candidate automatically, and customers must keep meaningful human review of every decision.
Fairness boundaries
Protected characteristics are ignored. There is no personality, culture-fit or ‘potential’ scoring.
Documents cannot change the rules
Text inside a resume or job description is analysed as content. It cannot change how ATSCheck works.
Limitations
AI can be wrong. It may miss evidence phrased unusually, or read a line as stronger or weaker evidence than you would. In particular:
- Unusual layouts, scanned documents and very long resumes can reduce accuracy.
- Job descriptions that are vague or combine several roles produce less precise requirements.
- Specialised or new terminology may not be recognised as related to a requirement.
- Generated writing can still sound unlike you. Read and edit it before use.
Treat every result as a starting point for your own judgement, and review outputs before relying on them.
Your data and AI
For each task, only the document text needed for that task is processed. Resume, candidate and job content is not used by EmKeTech to train AI models.
We keep simple records of which AI features were used, for fair use and billing. These records never contain document content.
