Resume Screening Rubric — AI workflow for Malaysian SMEs
Resume Screening Rubric turns job description into objective screening rubric. AI writes the first draft. You check it before it goes out.

The task
Automate resume screening rubric for me. Trigger event: job description. Deliverable: objective screening rubric. Stack: ATS, email, forms, calendar. Lay out the trigger, required inputs, AI step, decision rules, where humans sign off, fallback behaviour, what to log, and screening consistency tracking. A two-person Malaysian team must be able to keep this running.
Replace “job description” and the listed systems with what you actually run.
New here? How the four prompts work together
They are one sequence, not four options. Run them in order on the same piece of work, feeding each answer into the next.
Create
Paste your real data. You get a first draft. Most people never need to go further than this.
Analyse
Paste that draft back in. It tells you what is weak, missing or wrong before a customer sees it.
Optimise
Paste the draft again with what Analyse found. You get a stronger version.
Automate
Only once the output has been good five times running. This is the one people reach for too early.
Nothing forces you through all four. A good Create draft that you edit yourself is a finished job. The longer version.

Is this for you?
- Pick it for
- SMEs hiring frequently or lacking dedicated recruiters. No setup needed. If you can copy and paste, you can run it.
- What you get
- Drafted in minutes, not built from scratch. It aims at productivity. Watch one number: screening consistency.
- Reach for it when
- Most SMEs run it on every hire. If you are doing it by hand more often, automate it first.
How to run it
- 01Collect the input: job description.
- 02Copy the Create prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
- 03Replace “job description” in the prompt with your real data, then run it.
- 04Review the output and get a human sign-off — this one touches money, staff or compliance.
- 05Track screening consistency. Only wire up the Automate prompt after five useful runs in a row.
The tools you will need
The prompts run in any chat assistant — ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. These are what you need around them to get the input in and the output somewhere useful.
- ATS
- Any tool you already use is fine.
- forms
- calendar
Check the rules yourself
This workflow touches rules set by someone else. Check the current requirements yourself before you act on the output.
- JTKSM
- Working hours, leave, notice periods and termination are set by law. A clause in your contract does not override them.
- SOCSO
- Registration starts with your first employee, foreign workers included. Workplace accidents carry reporting deadlines that are easy to miss.
- JPDP
- Pasting customer or staff records into an AI tool is a transfer of personal data. Consent, notice, retention and cross-border rules still apply when the tool is not yours.

Data & privacy
This workflow involves candidate CVs, contact details and interview notes. Under the PDPA your business stays responsible for it, and pasting it into an AI tool may be a disclosure to a third party. Replace names and numbers with initials or references first — the prompt works just as well on “Customer A”.
Using customer data with AI tools in Malaysia covers what to check with any provider before you paste.
For this website, it works differently.
Nothing you type here is sent to us or to an AI model. The prompts are static content, and the copy button works directly inside your browser.
