AI rejected a job candidate — and no one explained why. A look at how it works

In 2026, AI-driven recruitment systems often automatically reject candidates without human review. Algorithms scan resumes, rank applicants, and send template rejections to those who don't score high enough, while recruiters typically only see the top-ranked profiles. The criteria used by these systems are often opaque, and many managers cannot explain the logic behind the AI's decisions.
