The problem

AI has broken CV screening.

When every CV looks perfect, the CV tells you nothing.

AI has democratised perfect CVs. Any candidate can produce flawless grammar, quantified achievements, and perfectly mirrored job description keywords in ten minutes. The traditional CV screen is broken.

Recruiters are drowning in applications that all look the same. Most of them are AI-generated. The CV used to be a signal. Now it's noise.

The fix

AI wrote their CV. Lumi finds out if they can actually do the job.

  • Dynamic questions generated from each candidate's specific CV
  • Real-time responses that can't be scripted
  • Response patterns analysed for consistency with CV claims
  • Behavioural monitoring that flags inconsistency
  • The gap between what someone claims and what they can demonstrate. Lumi finds it every time

Founder note

Digital Footprint

Beyond the CV. Beyond the interview.

A candidate's digital footprint reveals what a CV cannot: their communication style, professional reputation, public interests, and consistency between claimed expertise and demonstrated knowledge.

Lumi analyses publicly accessible profiles across LinkedIn, X, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, and runs a web search to surface professional blogs and other public content. Anything that could raise concerns, whether unprofessional behavior, conflicting information, or content inappropriate for the role, is automatically flagged across every post and surfaced for hiring manager review before it influences a decision.

What it looks at

  • 01 Deep analysis of candidate-provided social media across multiple platforms
  • 02 Sentiment analysis of analysed posts (professional tone, communication style, alignment signals)
  • 03 Role match report based on alignment between public content and job requirements
  • 04 Full breakdown with sentiment scoring (positive, neutral, negative percentages)
  • 05 Automated red flag detection: unprofessional content, discriminatory language, and behavior that conflicts with role requirements, surfaced for human review rather than auto-rejected

Formal Event Celebration and Group Photos

Personal Neutral

This carousel post documents a formal social event, possibly a graduation or prom, featuring a young man in a suit. Several photos show him drinking directly from a bottle of sparkling wine, while others show him posing with a large group of peers in formal wear. The setting appears to be a garden or park with a fountain, and the overall tone is celebratory.

Questions

Before you ask us directly.

Can't find the answer? Get in touch.

01 How does HireWithLumi assess candidates beyond keyword matching?

We analyse 15,000 data points per candidate including skills depth, experience progression, employment history consistency, role exaggerations, equivalencies (recognising "team lead" = "squad lead"), cultural fit indicators, and bias checks against UK Equality Act 2010. Real contextual understanding, not just keywords.

02 How does HireWithLumi make interviews more meaningful?

Enhanced Assessments generate personalised questions based on each CV, adapt follow-ups in real time, and deliver human-like conversations candidates complete on their schedule. Structured data with rich insights, no scheduling hassle.

03 How does HireWithLumi ensure fair and bias-free hiring?

Automated bias checking scans all content for discriminatory patterns on every assessment. Compliance with UK Equality Act 2010 and EU AI Act. Every decision fully explainable and traceable with exportable audit trails.

04 What happens to our candidate data?

Never used to train external AI models. GDPR and ISO 27001 compliant. Data residency options available. You retain full ownership. Comprehensive DPAs as standard.

05 How is HireWithLumi different from HireVue, Workable, or Greenhouse?

We focus on pre-interview assessment (CV screening to shortlist), not ATS replacement. We work alongside your existing ATS. Enhanced Assessments are screening steps, not final interviews. We handle the part of hiring that costs the most time: turning 200 applications into a shortlist of 5 qualified candidates.

06 Does Lumi replace our ATS?

No. Lumi works alongside Workday, Greenhouse, Bullhorn, LinkedIn, and others. Candidates apply through your channels, Lumi handles assessment, results flow back to your ATS. No rip-and-replace required.

07 Can I use Lumi for CQC/Ofsted-regulated roles?

Yes. Lumi supports compliance by providing documented assessment decisions, flagged employment gaps, role exaggeration detection, bias checking, and exportable audit trails. Lumi does NOT replace mandatory DBS checks, right to work verification, reference checks, or Single Central Record management. These remain your responsibility.

08 What happens with AI-generated CVs?

Enhanced Assessments go beyond the document. We generate dynamic questions from each CV, monitor real-time responses for consistency, and identify gaps between what candidates claim and what they can demonstrate. AI can write a perfect CV, but it can't answer adaptive questions in real time.

09 How does Lumi handle international qualifications?

Our system recognises equivalencies across 150+ countries. For example, we understand that a "License in Psychology" (Spain) = "Bachelor of Psychology" (UK). Where direct equivalencies aren't clear, we flag for human review rather than rejecting automatically.

10 How long does implementation take?

Team/Professional: 3-5 business days with onboarding call, implementation guide, and ongoing chat/email support. Growth/Enterprise: 2-4 weeks with dedicated implementation support, team training, and SLA-backed technical support.
