How TaaSFlow scores talent

Scoring priorities for Education

Every point of the score maps to an evidence quote from the CV. Dimensions, weights and critical requirements are shown alongside each candidate — the score supports judgment, it doesn't replace it.

What we evaluate in Education hires

Dimensions specific to Education — not a generic checklist.

Dimension

Phase and subject

Named phase, subject and exam board, with named results outcomes where evidenced.

Strong signal

A education CV that names its phase and subject outright: the work, the dates, the scope it owned, and something a reference can confirm.

Watch-out

Phase and subject asserted for education with nothing named behind it — no dates, no scope, no way to tell individual work from team credit.

How TaaSFlow validates

Every education match against this signal is tied to a quoted CV line and reviewed before the shortlist reaches you.

Compliance

Compliance handled in the workflow

Safeguarding and background checks
Recorded as hard requirements before any client visibility.
Fair and structured assessment
Identical criteria and an immutable audit trail for every applicant.
Data minimisation
CVs held in private storage with scoped, logged access.

Approval controls

Who has to agree before anything moves

Panel configuration: eligibility holds, two named reviewers and a complete audit trail on every decision.

Approval before client visibility
No candidate appears in a client workspace until a reviewer approves them for that specific role.
Eligibility holds
Missing licences, right-to-work or other hard requirements place a candidate on hold instead of ranking them.
Evidence verification
Extracted evidence is reviewable line by line, and a reviewer can confirm or reject each finding before it counts.
Second reviewer on decisions
High-consequence decisions can require a second named reviewer before the stage advances.
Separate contact release
Seeing a candidate and seeing their contact details are two different permissions, released independently.
Reversible decisions
Client decisions stay reversible for a short window, so a mis-click never becomes a permanent outcome.
Full audit trail
Every state change records who did it, when, and against which rubric version.
