Resume integrity screening goes beyond keyword matching and basic resume parsers. It asks whether the career facts on the page are internally consistent, externally corroborated, and whether the document itself shows signs of synthetic or template generation.
Fabrication risk vs polish risk
Strong integrity models separate two questions. Fabrication risk: did the candidate likely invent employers, degrees, or timelines? Polish risk: was the document mass-produced or AI-rewritten? A candidate may have a legitimate career but an AI-polished resume — or a handcrafted PDF with invented employers.
Multi-dimension scoring beats a single score
A single "fraud score" hides what to investigate. ResumeGuard returns composite, fabrication, and polish risk plus ten dimension breakdowns — timeline integrity, employer verification, technology authenticity, LinkedIn corroboration, writing patterns, and more. Each flag includes evidence and suggested interview questions.
