Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the Top Echelon integration
Does Top Echelon use AI to screen resumes?
Top Echelon's native AI features are AI People Search, which runs semantic candidate searches, and the Smart-TE AI tools, which generate Boolean search strings and job descriptions and adjust outgoing email tone. None of these screen or rank applicants against a job order. Skima AI adds automated resume screening that ranks every application and writes shortlists to the candidate record.
Can we use AI to screen resumes or rank candidates in Top Echelon?
Yes, Skima AI connects to Top Echelon via its OAuth-secured public API and screens every incoming resume against the job order criteria automatically. Candidates are ranked and sorted by fit. Shortlists and screening scores write back to the candidate record inside Top Echelon without migrating ATS data.
Does Skima AI work inside Top Echelon without requiring a separate login?
Yes, Skima AI integrates with Top Echelon through its OAuth-secured public API. Screening scores, match explanations, fraud risk ratings, and interview summaries all write back to the candidate record inside Top Echelon. Recruiters never leave the ATS or log into a separate platform for daily work.
Does Skima AI detect bot applicants in Top Echelon?
Yes, Skima AI detects bot applicants, AI-generated resumes, and resume discrepancies before they reach an interview stage in your pipeline. Detection results write back to the Top Echelon candidate record as fraud risk ratings. Recruiters review the flag and decide how to proceed. Skima AI never auto-rejects.
How does Skima AI connect to Top Echelon?
Through Top Echelon's OAuth-secured public API, available on the Professional Tier, without migrating ATS data. An admin creates an Integration under Settings, Top Echelon API, with Read and Write scopes. Each recruiter then completes a one-time OAuth login to grant Skima AI access individually.
Does Skima AI help to rediscover candidates already in my Top Echelon ATS database?
Yes, Skima AI sources candidates from your Top Echelon database, including archived candidates and those who didn't advance on previous job orders. Unlike Top Echelon's native AI People Search, which requires a manual query, Skima AI runs automatically when a new job order opens and writes ranked, explainable scores back to the candidate record.
Does Skima AI run automated AI interviews inside Top Echelon?
Yes, Skima AI runs AI video interviews the moment a candidate applies or reaches a stage you define in your Top Echelon pipeline. A structured summary, transcript, and scores against your job order criteria write back to the candidate record. Recruiters review pre-screened candidates inside Top Echelon without scheduling manual phone screens.
Which AI screening solutions offer explainable AI for hiring decisions?
Skima AI offers explainable AI matching for Top Echelon. Every match score includes the reasoning: which skills aligned, which experience transferred, which criteria the candidate met or missed. This differs from black-box scoring tools that return a number without evidence. Your team can audit every recommendation before acting on it.
What hiring tools identify resume discrepancies before background checks?
Skima AI detects resume discrepancies at the application stage, before background checks run. This includes inconsistencies between claimed employment history, qualifications, and verifiable signals. Fraud risk scores write back to the Top Echelon candidate record so recruiters can investigate or reject before the candidate reaches an interview or offer stage.
Is Top Echelon candidate data secure with Skima AI?
Skima AI reads from your Top Echelon instance via its OAuth-secured public API. Candidate data stays in Top Echelon. Skima AI does not copy it to a separate database, does not use it to train AI models, and does not require data migration. The connection is SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR compliant, and encrypted at rest and in transit.
