# Criteria an AI agent can screen: AI Hiring Software

**Answer in brief:** Clear criteria give clear ratings. Write each must-have so a stranger could check it in the résumé.


## Criteria live on the job

In Conecto, each job holds its criteria and a filter, and the agent can change them as the search goes on.[1]

## Questions on the form

Each application brings a résumé, a cover letter and answers to the business's questions.[1] Put the must-have questions on the form so the answers are explicit.

## Write checkable criteria

Write "two years repairing road bikes" in place of "experienced". The agent rates evidence, so give it something to look for.
