AI matching ratings

generative AI rates each job application from 0 to 5 against the requisition

Uses generative AI to compare a candidate's application, including details parsed from an uploaded resume, with the job requisition and gives ratings from 0 to 5 for education, experience, skills and overall profile. Recruiting users can show the ratings as columns, filter and compare applications by them, and open a generated summary of the candidate's resume. Administrators choose whether ratings are calculated when an application is created or when it reaches a chosen step of the selection process, and how much weight education, experience and skills carry.

Suggested Candidates

machine-learning matching of candidates to job requisitions, with Similar Candidates, Similar Jobs and Suggested Jobs

Oracle AI Apps matching algorithms suggest candidates for an open job requisition and find candidates whose traits are similar to an existing candidate; the same set-up covers Similar Jobs and Suggested Jobs, which suggest jobs to recruiters and to candidates. A scheduled process sends anonymised requisition and candidate data to Oracle's AI service, and suggestions appear after it has processed them. Each feature is ticked separately by an administrator.

Job Applicant Screening Agent

scores candidate profiles for authenticity to spot fraudulent or AI-generated candidates

An update to Oracle's Job Applicant Screening Agent template adds AI-based authenticity checks: it analyses candidate profiles and gives confidence scores. Oracle presents it as a way for recruiters to identify fraudulent or AI-generated candidates automatically. The agent is set up from its template in AI Agent Studio and only appears for roles an administrator has granted access to.

Job Applicant Advisor

chat agent on a job application that answers questions about the candidate and recommends a salary for the offer

An AI agent on the job application page that answers recruiters' and hiring managers' questions about the application, such as whether the candidate meets the experience or skills asked for, drawing on feedback scores, assessments and background checks. At the offer stage it recommends a salary within the requisition's range, using a candidate fitment score out of 10 (match to the requisition plus interview rating) and the pay of at least 10 comparable employees, explains its reasoning, and drafts the job offer once the user confirms. Oracle says it does not use protected characteristics such as age, gender or race for the recommendation.

Interview Insights

turns interview transcripts into summaries, pre-filled feedback answers and a candidate rating

After a Zoom or Microsoft Teams interview transcribed through Interview Companion, an AI agent analyses the transcript, writes an interview summary and pre-fills the interviewers' feedback questionnaires, including a rating of the candidate where the questionnaire asks for one. Interviewers are notified to review and can change the draft before submitting it. Administrators switch on the summary and the draft feedback separately.

Candidate Sourcing Workspace

finds and ranks matching candidates for future roles and recommends next steps

An AI workspace for recruiters that builds always-on sourcing pools from hiring history and expected hiring needs, identifies matching candidates, and shows the top matches with AI-written summaries of each candidate's overall fit and any mismatches. It recommends actions such as follow-ups, shortlisting and campaigns, and recruiters decide whom to shortlist or remove. It runs on several scheduled agents that an administrator sets up.

Career Coach

AI agent on career sites that recommends jobs to candidates and assesses their fit

An AI agent on the career site that asks candidates about their experience and skills, or reads an uploaded resume, builds a short profile and recommends matching jobs. On job pages and during the application it assesses whether the candidate is a good fit for the job and answers questions about it, including from documents the organisation uploads. If the organisation used Oracle's earlier digital assistant on the site, turning this agent on replaces it.

Job Fit

generative AI rates a candidate's fit for a job from 0 to 5 on the career site

A Job Fit metrics bar at the top of career site job pages uses generative AI to compare the candidate's profile or uploaded resume with the job. It rates their suitability from 0 to 5 for skills, job history, education and other data, with a summary of why they got those scores. Oracle notes the ratings are subjective and based on the data provided. Resume parsing must be active.

Hiring Workspace for Store Managers

AI workspace that surfaces top and recommended candidates and at-risk requisitions

An AI workspace for retail store managers that flags requisitions needing attention, highlights the top new candidates who closely match a requisition, offers AI-recommended candidates and AI-written resume summaries, and generates interview guides. From the workspace managers can advance or reject candidates and send follow-up messages. It relies on the AI matching ratings for job applications being switched on.

Talent Advisor (My Team)

manager agent that summarises a team member's performance, feedback, goals and recognition

An AI agent for managers that answers plain-language questions about a team member's performance evaluations, check-ins, feedback, goals and recognitions, and summarises them for talent reviews. Oracle also positions it to help managers spot high performers and those at risk, and to support promotion and pay recommendations. Data access follows the manager's role and security permissions.

Talent Calibration and Review Workspace

recommends changes to employees' performance, potential and risk-of-loss ratings before talent reviews

An AI workspace for managers preparing talent reviews that recommends adjusting individual employees' performance, potential and risk-of-loss ratings, drawing on check-ins and their sentiment, completed and overdue goals, feedback and the manager's evaluation comments. It shows each employee the manager rated with a recommended adjustment or no change, lets the manager email stakeholders about employees it flags as at risk of loss, and generates a presentation with a talent snapshot for each direct report. Managers review the recommendations; Oracle says ratings are not changed in the workspace itself.

coaching agent that surfaces each employee's themes, progress and potential risks

An AI coaching agent for managers that analyses an employee's goals, check-ins, feedback, recognition and performance documents from the last two years and surfaces themes, progress, potential risks and suggested coaching for conversations and next steps.

Role match summary

rates an employee's fit for a career role as good, moderate or no fit

Its accuracy depends on how complete the employee's profile is.

Recruiting Inbox Screening Agent

screens candidates' messages for abusive content and labels the candidate

An AI agent that scans incoming candidate emails, SMS and WhatsApp messages for abusive or inappropriate content, masks flagged text for users without a special privilege, and tags the candidate with a label the administrator chooses once any message is flagged. Flagged messages are kept from the other recruiting agents and from AI summaries. Authorised users can mark a message as not offensive, which removes the tag when all of a candidate's messages are cleared.
