Verified
Evidence has been checked against the agreed scope.
What is a verified CV?
A traditional CV is a claim. A verified CV separates what has been checked, what remains candidate-declared and what needs follow-up. The point is not to make hiring automatic. The point is to make human judgement less blind.
CV as claim
A CV is useful, but it is still self-certified. Verification turns selected claims into evidence and makes uncertainty visible.
Verification status labels
The label matters because it tells the reader how much confidence to place in each claim.
Partially verified
Some evidence exists, but the claim is not fully closed.
Candidate-declared
The candidate has stated it, but it has not been independently checked.
Not verified
No suitable evidence has been reviewed yet.
Conflicting evidence
The reviewed evidence does not line up cleanly.
Requires follow-up
The hiring team should probe this before relying on it.
What can be checked
Identity status, certifications, profile consistency, work examples, structured answers, role expectations and selected experience claims may be checked where proportionate.
What cannot be guaranteed
A verified CV does not guarantee performance, culture fit, clearance, right-to-work status or that every claim is true beyond the evidence reviewed.
How candidates and employers benefit
Candidates get represented by evidence rather than formatting. Employers get fewer unknowns before interview.
