Comparative read

Both meet the core operations requirements. They differ on the size of team they have led and on certification.

Current edge

Candidate A: the certification, and a longer run in operations.

Key watch-outs

Candidate A has led 12 people, not 20. Candidate B has no project management certification.

Decision hinge

Whether A’s two-site management carries to three sites. Candidate B has led the larger team.

Requesting missing details from candidates

Choose the details and the candidates, then send one request by email or WhatsApp. Each reply updates that candidate’s profile, with its source and time, so an answer can be waiting in the profile before you call.

Sample data

Your email, ready to send.

Talentino fills your template with the missing details. You review and send the email. The candidate replies, and the answers are added to their profile.

A conversation on WhatsApp.

You start the request. Talentino sends its approved opening message, then an assistant asks for the selected details.

How candidate requests work

Following the conversation, keeping the answer

The Conversations tab shows what was asked, what came back and the exchange itself. You can pause the assistant and write to the candidate yourself. Each answer lands in the profile with its source and time.

Candidate data

Where it runs
Application and file storage run on AWS in Frankfurt (eu-central-1).
Resume files
Resume files encrypted in transit and at rest, and every request for a file is scoped to the account that owns it.
Every record
Every record carries the customer account it belongs to, and every request is scoped to that account.
Before analysis
AI document validation runs before analysis, on by default, to catch unreadable or non-resume files before they reach the scoring engine.
Security and data protection
What does it cost, and what does a credit buy?

There is a free tier and no credit card is required to start. Beyond it Talentino is pay-as-you-go: AI actions are priced in credits, and you confirm the exact cost of a scoring run before it starts.

Is it fully automated, or does the recruiter stay involved?

Talentino does the reading. It processes the pile and produces a first-pass analysis with the explanation attached, and the scores and rankings it produces are advisory. Shortlist and reject decisions are applied from the candidate review screen with the cited evidence in view, and each status keeps a record of who applied it.

Where does the data run, and where does the AI processing happen?

The application and file storage run on AWS in Frankfurt (eu-central-1). Those two components are named deliberately: model inference runs on third-party AI providers, and we do not extend the Frankfurt statement to cover them.

What can we put in front of someone who challenges a decision?

In the app: the role's weighted criteria, per-requirement grades with citations from the resume, the score and the weighting behind it, and the audit trail. Each status keeps a record of who applied it, and because the criteria and the weighting are fixed on the role and stored with it, a past decision can be re-run and checked against the same standard. The PDF export is narrower: every requirement scored out of 100 and grouped by how well it was met, each with the scoring explanation, deal-breakers flagged, and the overall score with its summary, strengths and concerns. The citations, the weighting and the status history stay in the app.
