Overview

The Analysis tab gives you a full picture of candidate fit, all in one place. This replaces the previous Insights tab and opens by default when viewing any candidate’s profile.

💡 Tip: The Notes tab is still available for your internal comments, but the new Analysis tab provides a faster way to evaluate each candidate’s potential and relevance before messaging or scheduling interviews.


What you’ll find on the Analysis tab

The Analysis tab combines multiple tools and insights into one simplified view:

  • Summary: An AI-generated overview of the candidate’s fit, created from their screening question responses and resume details.
    Example: “Candidate demonstrates strong customer service experience and is currently pursuing real estate licensure.”

  • Scout-Identified Skills: Predicted competencies pulled directly from resume keywords and experience.
    Scout will automatically highlight only certain resume-based competencies, including:

    • Customer Service Experience

    • Time Zone

    • Pursuing Real Estate License

    • Education Level

  • DISC+ Insights: A collapsible section offering quick behavioral context, helping you assess communication style, pace, and motivators.


How to access the Analysis tab from the ATS

You can open the Analysis tab directly from your Job Dashboard (ATS):

  • Hover over any Fit Score on a Candidate Card

  • Click the View Analysis button to go straight to that candidate’s profile view


Common questions

Can I still see the Notes tab?
Yes. The Notes tab is still available for your internal feedback, it just no longer opens by default.

Do all candidates have Scout-Identified Skills?
Only when they've answered your screening questions, or relevant resume data is available. If Scout can’t detect one of the listed competencies, that section will remain blank.

Will the Analysis tab show in all plans?
Yes, all users will see the Analysis tab.
