In today’s competitive hiring landscape, finding top talent often feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. While most recruiting efforts focus on active job seekers—those who are applying for jobs—the real competitive advantage lies with peak performing passive candidates.
Our job seeker scoring service offers a secret, powerful advantage to hiring professionals: the ability to identify and engage these high-value passive candidates the moment they browse your career site.
The Simplicity of Front-End Scoring
Our service integrates directly onto your job postings and career pages, making the process seamless for job seekers and powerful for you.
1. A Simple Sign-Up: A job seeker lands on your site and uses our embedded widget. They only need a resume, an email, and a zip code to register once.
2. Instant Suitability Matching Score: Our system immediately scores the candidate for the job they’re viewing, as well as every other open position on your page.
3. Visible Results: The job seeker instantly sees their score, helping them decide where to focus their time. Your hiring team can access these scores through a built-in dashboard. Simple, fast and no integration needed.
This front-end operation—scoring in the moment, on your site—is key to our secret advantage.
🎣 The Secret Advantage: Reaching Candidates Who Don’t Apply
Here is the kicker: A high-scoring job seeker doesn’t need to apply for a job for you to connect with them.
Many highly qualified professionals are “passive.” They are currently employed, not actively job-hunting, and may only be getting scored for jobs out of curiosity. They check their score, see they’re a great fit, but for whatever reason—they’re too busy, they’re happy (for now), or they’re just browsing—they don’t click the “Apply” button.
In a traditional system, these top-tier, passive candidates simply vanish from your radar.
With the Geescore system, they don’t.
🎯 Identifying and Engaging High-Value Passive Talent
The moment a job seeker registers and receives a score, the terms of use are clear: In exchange for their free, instant suitability score, they allow the hiring client to receive their score, resume, and contact information.
This transforms curious browsers into a high-value talent pipeline.
Imagine a passive candidate scores in the high 90s for a critical role. Your hiring manager can reach out directly with a personal, high-touch message like this:
“Hi, I saw you received a very high suitability score for our open [Job Title] position. We’re very interested in your background and I wanted to let you know we have two other roles you’d also be a great fit for. I’d love to schedule a quick 5-10 minute chat to tell you about them. Please let me know if that works for you.”
This type of direct, personal outreach is the opposite of being ignored or “ghosted” and is a huge positive experience for the candidate, who is free to say “no” or simply not respond.
The ability to proactively reach out to high-scoring, pre-vetted passive talent—even if they never submit an application—is the unique, powerful advantage that our job seeker scoring service provides to our clients.
