What it is

Candidate Selection and Matching

Organisations receive hundreds of CVs for a single role. Manual screening takes time and depends on each screener's impressions and criteria.

Mijhar standardises the screening criteria for each role and shows each candidate's fit score, its rationale and confidence level, while the shortlisting decision stays with your team.

We deliver Candidate Selection and Matching for government, semi-government, private and non-profit organisations in Riyadh, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Dammam, Khobar and across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, in person or online, in Arabic and English.
