The breadth of Application Checks

Look at the document, the content, and the record.

Nine checks cover different aspects of the available documents, text, and workspace records.

Document structure

Embedded instructions / prompt injection
Text that tries to direct an AI system or reviewer instead of describing experience.
Hidden text
Text that is not normally visible on the page.
Instructions in metadata
Directions tucked into document properties.
Overlapping text
Layers that overlap or differ from the visible page.

Content alignment

Unusual repetition
Repeated keywords or passages that deserve a closer look.
Job description overlap
Passages in a résumé or career profile that closely match the job description.

Record consistency

Date inconsistencies
Work-history dates that do not line up, such as an end date before a start date.
Identity inconsistencies
Differences between résumé details and the application record.
Shared contact details
Contact details appearing under different candidate names in the workspace.

Document-layer checks need supported originals. Content and record checks use readable text or workspace information.

Coverage stays visible

See what was checked and where review is incomplete.

A concern needs review

Read the finding, supporting evidence, and suggested next step.

No concerns were detected

Interpret this in the context of the materials and checks that completed.

Coverage was limited

Unavailable or unsupported checks remain distinct from a clear result.

Human review

Make room for a reasonable explanation.

Formatting, document conversion, or legitimate tailoring can explain a flag. Inspect the source and give the candidate a chance to clarify. A finding does not establish intent, identity, or AI authorship.

Your team decides what the finding means and who advances.

Common questions

Questions about Application Checks

What do Application Checks look for?

They examine document structure, content alignment, and record consistency. The nine checks listed above run where the source and available records support them.

Does a flag mean the candidate has been dishonest?

No. A flag identifies something to clarify. Review the source and the candidate’s explanation before drawing a conclusion.

Is unavailable coverage the same as a clear result?

No. Not checked, unavailable, and no concerns detected represent different states. TrueRole keeps these distinctions visible so reviewers understand the limits of the inspection.

Do checks decide whether someone advances?

No. Application Checks surface findings for your team to review. Hiring decisions remain with people.
