The problem

Duplicate submissions from agencies and direct applicants create confusion and compliance risk.

The opportunity

AI can reduce repetitive effort and surface options humans still decide — when grounded in the right data and oversight.

Entity resolution identifies duplicate candidate records across sources.

How it works

Name, contact, and resume embeddings are compared to merge or flag duplicate profiles.

Limitations and risks

Bias inheritance, stale data, privacy obligations and over-automation of people decisions. Keep humans accountable for outcomes that affect careers.

What implementation requires

Start narrow, define evaluation criteria, involve legal/HR governance early, and measure adoption plus quality — not only model accuracy.
