Resume parsing has become a go-to tool for high-volume hiring—promising speed, automation, and efficiency. But there’s a problem: parsing resumes can only tell you where a candidate has been, not where they’re most likely to succeed.
In today’s workforce, experience isn’t always the best predictor of performance. Especially in frontline or high-turnover roles, resumes often miss the full picture—and worse, they can reinforce outdated ideas of what “qualified” looks like.
That’s why more companies are shifting toward predictive hiring—a science-based approach that looks beyond the resume to evaluate the traits that actually matter: learning agility, work style, cognitive fit, and long-term potential.
At Harver, we help organizations make that shift. Here’s why it matters—and how it leads to faster, fairer, and more effective hiring.
