WHAT IT DOES

What candidate_screening_ranking does on Gapup Mcp

AI agents call candidate_screening_ranking to retrieve information from Gapup Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`async`	boolean	—	If true, returns a job_id immediately (<200ms) instead of waiting for the result. Poll the result with job_result(job_id). Use for slow tools to avoid client ti
`candidates`	array	Yes	Array of candidate objects. Maximum 50.
`role_country`	string	—	Optional ISO 2-letter country code for regional context (informational).
`job_description`	string	Yes	Full text or summary of the job description and role requirements.
`criteria_weights`	object	—	Optional weighting per criterion. Default: skills=0.4, experience=0.2, education=0.1, progression=0.15, culture=0.15.

RISK

Why candidate_screening_ranking is rated Low

The tool reads and analyzes input data (job descriptions and resumes) and returns ranked results with scoring breakdowns. It does not modify, store, or delete data — it is purely an analytical/retrieval operation. Severity is medium because it processes sensitive personal data (resumes, candidate profiles) and automated ranking decisions could have discriminatory or privacy implications if misused.
