What Aurelia does at the Sourcing stage

"The best candidate might already exist in your stack of CVs. If you can only find them."

Once your need is clearly defined, it's time to gather applications. Aurelia helps you centralise, analyse and organise the profiles received—without spending hours re-entering information or manually sorting through dozens of CVs.

1

Simplified multi-source import

Centralise all your applications in one place.

  • –Direct drag-and-drop upload (PDF, Word, images)
  • –Chrome extension to import a LinkedIn profile in 1 click
  • –Email transfer of received applications
  • –Bulk import of dozens of CVs simultaneously
2

Intelligent automatic parsing

Aurelia automatically extracts key information from each CV.

  • –Identity and contact details (99% accuracy)
  • –Work experience with dates and employers (95%)
  • –Education and qualifications (95%)
  • –Technical skills mentioned (90%)
3

Automatic pre-scoring

Each candidate receives a matching score against the ideal profile defined in step 1.

  • –Overall score out of 100 points
  • –Detail by criterion: skills, experience, education, location
  • –Identification of gaps with target profile
  • –Suggestions for clarification questions in borderline cases
4

Intelligent organisation of applications

Aurelia automatically categorises candidates into actionable categories.

  • –To contact: score > 70%, coherent profile → Schedule interview
  • –To explore further: score 50-70%, points to clarify → Pre-qualification
  • –Not retained: score < 50% or eliminating criterion → Negative response
  • –Pending: incomplete application → Request more info

What Aurelia does NOT do (deliberately)

Clear positioning: no active sourcing, no automatic elimination

Aurelia is not a headhunting tool. It doesn't search for candidates on LinkedIn or in CV databases. Our positioning is to support SMEs that receive applications. Equally, Aurelia scores and suggests, but never decides for you. Even a candidate at 45% can be relevant if their atypical profile matches your culture.

Sourcing best practices

Before moving to step 3

  • Diversify sources of applications

    Don't rely on a single channel: job boards, referrals, social networks, spontaneous applications

  • All applications centralised in Aurelia

    One place for all profiles, whatever the source

  • CVs have been parsed and verified

    Correct parsing errors on poorly formatted CVs

  • Scores have been reviewed and adjusted if necessary

    AI proposes, you validate and refine

  • 'To contact' candidates are identified (5-10 max)

    Target the best profiles before moving to interviews

  • Non-retained candidates have been notified

    Your employer brand depends on it

Act quickly on good profiles

The best candidates don't stay on the market for long. If a profile scores 85%+, contact them within 48 hours. A delayed response is one of the main causes of losing good candidates for SMEs.
What CV formats does Aurelia accept?
Aurelia accepts the most common formats: PDF, DOCX, DOC, PNG and JPG. For images (scanned CVs), Aurelia uses OCR (optical character recognition) to extract text. Accuracy is slightly lower for poor quality scans. It's recommended to ask candidates to send their CVs in PDF for optimal extraction.
How many CVs can you import simultaneously?
Aurelia allows bulk import of dozens of CVs simultaneously. Depending on your subscription, limits vary. Bulk import is ideal when you've posted an offer on multiple job boards and receive a large volume of applications. Aurelia processes and parses all CVs automatically, usually in a few minutes.
Is automatic pre-scoring reliable?
Pre-scoring is a starting indicator, not a final verdict. Its reliability depends on the quality of criteria defined in step 1 and CV clarity. A well-scored candidate deserves your attention, but a low score doesn't necessarily mean rejection: the candidate may have an atypical background or a poorly written CV. Use the score as a prioritisation filter, not as automatic decision.
How to professionally handle rejected applications?
Aurelia can generate personalised and kind rejection emails for non-selected candidates. This is important for your employer brand: disappointed but well-treated candidates can become ambassadors or reapply later. The standard rejection email thanks the candidate, briefly explains (without hurtful detail) why the profile doesn't fit this time, and leaves the door open for the future.
