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.

- 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.
