One job post can bring in hundreds of CVs. HireSide writes your job ad, reads every CV — PDF, Word or a phone photo — and ranks applicants with match scores you can check line by line. It runs a first-round AI interview in English or Urdu, and your team gets a shortlist with the evidence behind it. A person always makes the decision.

Big applicant numbers, CVs in every format, two languages in one sentence and candidates spread across the country. HireSide is built around all four.
Every CV is read in full and ranked against your requirements, so no good candidate is lost at the bottom of the pile.
PDF, Word, scanned pages and phone photos are all read into the same structured profile.
Candidates can take the AI interview in English or Urdu, and answers that mix the two — Roman Urdu included — are understood.
Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad or a smaller town: candidates take the first round online, in their own time, with no travel.
HireSide does the reading and the first round. Your team does the deciding.
Give HireSide a few bullet points. It drafts the job ad, flags biased wording, and sets out the must-have skills and a scoring rubric. You edit, approve and publish.
Candidates apply from your job page. HireSide reads each CV in full against your rubric and ranks applicants with a match score — and the reasons, quoted from the CV.
Invite the candidates you like to a short interview built from the job and their own CV. They take it online, in English or Urdu, with a practice question first and a human interviewer if they ask for one.
Review the shortlist and the interview evidence, book interviews with your team and move people forward. HireSide never rejects anyone on its own — a person confirms every decision, and every candidate hears back.
“AI does the reading. People make the decisions.”
Each applicant is scored against the rubric you approved — must-haves met, relevant experience, skills — with a plain-language reason that quotes their CV. No black box: you can see why someone ranks where they do, and overrule it.
Turn a few bullet points into a clear, inclusive job ad, with must-have skills, screening questions and a scoring rubric.
PDF, Word and image CVs are read into a structured profile. Names, photos, ages and addresses are kept out of scoring.
A short text interview built from the job and the candidate's own CV, scored only on what was said, with quoted evidence and an integrity report for a person to review.

Funnel analytics and adverse-impact checks built from voluntary, separately stored survey answers, so you can see whether your process treats groups fairly.
Interview invitations, reminders and outcomes on WhatsApp, where most candidates in Pakistan actually read their messages.
ID checks for shortlisted candidates, shown beside the score for a person to review. They never reject anyone automatically.
No HR team to spare? HireSide does the first pass, so you can spend your time on the best few.
Several roles open at once, in several cities, with the same fair process for each one.
Sales, customer support, retail and operations roles with hundreds of applicants, and every one of them read.
A shortlist with evidence, instead of a pile of CVs.
Candidates are told up front when AI helps review their application and what it looks at. They can ask for a human review, and every one of them gets an outcome. HireSide never analyses faces, emotions or tone of voice, and never rejects anyone on its own.
Every AI interview starts with a practice question, and anyone can ask for a human interviewer or an adjustment instead. Asking never counts against them.
No. HireSide reads, scores and ranks applicants, and shows you why. A person on your team reviews the shortlist and makes every decision. HireSide never rejects a candidate on its own.
Each applicant is compared with the rubric you approve for the role: must-have skills, relevant experience, seniority and the other requirements you set. Every score comes with a short reason that quotes the CV, so you can check it and overrule it.
Before they apply, candidates are told that AI helps review applications and what it looks at. They can ask for a human review or an explanation, and every candidate receives an outcome.
Yes, as a text interview that candidates take online in their own time. Each one is built from the job and the candidate's CV, starts with an unscored practice question, and is scored only on what was said, with quoted evidence. The voice version is coming soon.
Yes. Candidates can take the AI interview in English or Urdu, and many switch between the two or write in Roman Urdu — the interviewer understands that. Your team can use HireSide in six interface languages.
No, and we never will. HireSide doesn't read facial expressions, emotions or tone of voice. AI interviews are scored only on what the candidate says, with quoted evidence.
Not yet — it's coming soon. Today candidates hear from you by email. WhatsApp invitations, reminders and outcomes are next on our list, because that's where most candidates in Pakistan read their messages.
You do. As the employer, you decide what is collected and how long it is kept, and HireSide processes it on your behalf. Candidate data is never sold, and never used to train AI models without separate consent.
