WP Job Manager add-on

Turn “Apply for job” into an actual hiring record.

On its own, WP Job Manager just shows an email address or a link. HireScore replaces that with a real application form, a CV inbox on your dashboard, and an AI score on every applicant — so nothing gets lost and the best ones rise to the top.

WP Job Manager, out of the box
jobs@company.com opens the inbox, then…
Nothing is recorded on the job listing.

The gap

Applying shouldn’t mean disappearing into an inbox.

Every applicant deserves a record: who applied, what they sent, and where they stand. HireScore sits inside WP Job Manager and gives you exactly that — a form with CV upload on every listing, an applicant list next to the jobs you already manage, and an AI score that reads each CV against the job and tells you why it matches, before you've opened a single attachment.

Features

Everything WP Job Manager was missing.

One add-on, installed once, that gives every job listing a working front door and every employer a working dashboard.

Application form with CV upload

A real form on every job listing — name, details, and a CV upload — instead of a mailto link.

Applicant list in your dashboard

Every applicant appears right inside the employer's existing job dashboard — no new screen to learn.

Statuses, notes & CSV export

Move applicants through new, shortlisted, interview, rejected and hired, add private notes, and export it all to CSV.

AI match score with reasoning

Each applicant is scored against the job, with plain-language reasoning and matched / missing skills.

Best-match sorting

The applicant list sorts itself by score, so the strongest candidates for the role are always on top.

Runs in the background

Scoring happens after submission — applicants never sit and wait for a result before they can apply.

Your API or ours

Use the HireScore screening API, or connect your own AI provider key through WordPress connectors.

The pipeline

Five stages, one dashboard.

Every applicant carries a status from the moment they apply to the moment you decide — visible to you, private to them.

New
Form submitted, CV attached, score queued.
Shortlisted
Flagged as a strong match, worth a closer look.
Interview
Booked in — private notes track how it went.
Rejected
Kept on file, out of the active shortlist.
Hired
The record stays, so the search doesn't start blind.

Strong hands-on match for the core stack and seven years at similar scale. Missing direct Kubernetes experience — worth confirming at interview.

AI scoring

Every CV, read against the job — not skimmed against a keyword list.

  • 1

    It reads the job, not just the resume. The score is calculated against the specific listing an applicant applied to.

  • 2

    It explains itself. A short reasoning summary plus matched and missing skills, so you know why a score landed where it did.

  • 3

    It sorts for you. The applicant list re-orders by score automatically, so the strongest matches surface first.

  • 4

    It never blocks the applicant. Scoring runs in the background after the form is submitted — applying stays instant.

Setup

Two ways to power the scoring.

Pick whichever fits how you already run things — both live under WordPress connectors, so switching later is a settings change, not a re-install.

Managed

HireScore screening API

Turn it on and start scoring. No provider account to set up, no key to manage — HireScore handles the screening for you.

Self-managed

Your own AI provider key

Already pay for an AI provider? Store your own key in WordPress connectors and HireScore scores through your account instead.
