Engineering Proof-Backed Hiring Reports

Hiring shouldn’t be a gamble. With Vectorhire’s proof-backed candidate reports, built on Cognilium AI’s agentic systems, every hiring decision is transparent, compliant, and explainable from day one.


Why Proof-Backed Hiring Matters

The stakes in hiring have never been higher. Mis-hires cost companies $15,000–$240,000 per role, depending on seniority. Regulatory scrutiny on AI-based recruitment is increasing, with frameworks like EEOC guidelines and GDPR Article 22 requiring transparency in automated decision-making.

Traditional AI hiring tools fail here — black-box algorithms produce scores without context, leaving HR exposed to compliance risks.

  • Tamper-Evident Audit Trails → Every score links back to verifiable source data.
  • Evidence-Linked Reports → Citations, transcripts, and URLs included for every hiring recommendation.
  • HR Compliance-Ready → Designed for audits, EEOC, and GDPR compliance from the ground up.

The Technology: Agentic AI for Recruitment

At the core of Vectorhire is Cognilium AI’s agentic orchestration engine, purpose-built for HR:

  1. Evidence Ingestion Layer

    • Pulls structured + unstructured data from resumes, portfolios, coding challenges, and interview transcripts.
    • Normalizes and timestamps every data point.
  2. Agentic Assessment Layer

    • Multiple specialized AI agents (skills evaluation, cultural fit, compliance review) operate in parallel.
    • Each agent produces an explainable micro-report with evidence references.
  3. Proof-Backed Scoring Engine

    • Aggregates agent outputs into a final score.
    • Links each point of evaluation to verifiable source data — no “gut-feel” AI.
  4. Compliance & Audit Layer

    • Automatic compliance check against EEOC, GDPR, and local HR laws.
    • Generates instant audit-ready PDFs.

Proof Points: Why It Works

  • 3× Faster Candidate Screening than manual HR review.
  • 40% Cost Reduction vs. traditional assessment centers.
  • 100% Source-Linked Evidence for every recommendation.
  • Tamper-Evident Audit Trail — cryptographic signatures prevent post-report modification.
