Show HN: Trying to Detect Fake Resumes (applicantmatchai.com)

A new AI tool, ApplicantMatchAI, has been introduced to help recruiters swiftly detect discrepancies between candidate resumes and their LinkedIn profiles. The system leverages advanced algorithms to identify job title inflation, discrepancies in employment dates, missing gaps in employment history, and skill embellishments in under 30 seconds. This is particularly significant as research indicates that a substantial percentage of job seekers admit to lying on their resumes, making the potential for mis-hires costly for companies. The platform operates with ease; recruiters simply upload the candidate’s resume in common formats and the corresponding LinkedIn profile as a PDF. The AI then generates a detailed comparison report outlining discrepancies and match scores. With no subscription fees and the first 20 comparisons offered for free, ApplicantMatchAI is positioned to streamline the hiring process and promote informed decision-making. As highlighted by early users, the tool not only saves time but also aids in mitigating the risks of hiring candidates who may misrepresent their professional backgrounds.
