How to check job applications for AI-written content

Add the application text
Open It's AI and paste text from a resume, CV or cover letter, or upload the document.
Review the AI result
Run a scan and review the result. Use Deep Scan to examine highlighted passages in context.
Follow up with the candidate
Compare the text with other application materials and ask questions where clarification is needed.

AI detection is a review signal. Do not reject a candidate based only on an AI score.

Review job applications with context

Review multiple applications in one workflow

When applications arrive in batches, check multiple CVs and cover letters together instead of starting a separate scan for each file. Review the result for each document and decide which passages need a closer look. Batch upload helps your team follow the same review process across applications for a role.

Turn a scan into better follow-up questions

Run a scan on a resume or cover letter to estimate whether it contains AI-written text. Use the result to prepare focused questions about the candidate's experience, examples and writing process. The score gives you a starting point for a conversation; it does not establish their skills or honesty.

See which passages need more context

Deep Scan highlights passages that may be AI-written, so you can examine the wording behind an overall result. Compare those passages with the candidate's CV, cover letter and other application materials. Review the context and ask for clarification where needed, rather than treating every highlighted passage as a reason for rejection.

Bring AI checks into your hiring workflow

Use the It's AI API to add text checks to the application review process your team already uses. Your developers can build a connection to your ATS or internal tools using the API documentation. Plan how recruiters will review the results and follow up with candidates before automating any part of the workflow.

FAQ

A few more questions?

What is an AI detector for job applications?

An AI detector estimates whether application text may be AI-written. You can check a resume, CV or cover letter and use the result to guide a closer review. It does not verify a candidate's experience or qualifications.

Can AI detectors be used during the hiring process?

AI detection can be one input in a human review process. Follow your organisation's policies and applicable requirements. Do not use an AI score alone to reject a candidate or assess their skills.

How do I check if a resume or CV is AI-generated?

Paste the resume or CV text into It's AI, or upload the document, and run a scan. Review the overall result and use Deep Scan to examine highlighted passages. Discuss unclear passages with the candidate.

How do I check if a cover letter is AI-generated?

Add the cover letter text to It's AI and run a scan. Review the result alongside the rest of the application. Templates and editing can affect interpretation, so use follow-up questions to understand the candidate's own experience.

Can a detector identify which AI tool a candidate used?

An AI detection score does not identify the exact tool a candidate used. Treat the result as an estimate about the text, not evidence that a specific chatbot or model was involved.

Can I integrate AI detection into our ATS?

The It's AI API can be used to add text checks to a hiring workflow. Your team needs to implement the connection to its ATS and review the current API documentation. Do not assume a ready-made connector is available for every ATS.

Can I check multiple job applications at once?

It's AI offers batch upload for checking multiple documents. Check the current availability and limits in your account. Review each application's result in context rather than applying an automatic rejection rule.

Are AI detectors accurate for resumes and cover letters?

Results can vary with text length, formatting and editing. General benchmark scores do not establish accuracy on your candidate documents. Test the tool on representative examples and allow for false positives and false negatives.

How can we avoid unfair decisions from false positives?

Do not rely on an AI score alone. Review the application as a whole, consider the context and ask the candidate for clarification. Keep a recruiter responsible for interpreting the result.

Is there a free AI checker for recruiters?

You can start with the free allowance offered in the It's AI app. Check the current allowance and available scan modes before uploading applications. Batch processing and other features may require a paid plan.
