# Overview

> How Tenzo evaluates a candidate's resume against the job

## Resume Review in Tenzo

When a candidate enters a job, Tenzo's AI reads their resume and evaluates how well they match the role. The result has two parts:

* **Star rating** — a 1–5 star summary of overall fit. See [Star Rating](/resume-review/star-rating).
* **Requirement matches** — a per-requirement breakdown showing which must-haves, preferred, and nice-to-haves the candidate meets. See [Requirement Matches](/resume-review/requirement-matches).

Together these drive whether a candidate moves forward to outreach or is rejected.

## Where you'll see it

Resume review surfaces across the product wherever you're looking at candidates for a job:

* **Sourcing tab** — every sourced candidate has a star rating and requirement chips. See [Sourcing Overview](/sourcing/overview).
* **Candidate detail panel** — opens to the right of the candidate list and shows the star rating with hover reasoning, the requirement chips with evidence, and any failure badges.
* **Candidate table** — for jobs with resume review enabled, the table shows a star rating column.

## When it runs

| Candidate path                                                                                                                 | What happens                                                                                                                                                                   |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Applicant** (entered from your ATS)                                                                                          | Resume is reviewed automatically. The candidate moves to **Outreach** if they pass, or **Resume Rejected** if they fail and resume disqualification is on for the job.         |
| **Sourced** (added to the job by a recruiter — via the Sourcing tab, a tearsheet, manual upload, or any other in-product flow) | Adding the candidate is itself an expression of recruiter intent to interview, so the candidate goes straight to outreach and bypasses applicant-side resume disqualification. |

For the configuration and what the failure modes look like, see [Configuration](/resume-review/configuration).

<Note>
  The candidate-facing details page reached from a [resume feedback email](/settings/resume-feedback-emails) only shows the candidate which requirements they did not meet. It does **not** show the star rating or any internal scoring detail.
