Abstract
The increasing number of job applications on digital recruitment platforms is a problem for human resource managers, who have to balance efficiency with equity in candidate evaluation. Conventional resume screening systems frequently show restricted interpretability and inadequate matching precision. The proposed study introduces a hybrid recruitment model that combines fuzzy logic and ensemble learning to provide intelligent and explainable candidate-job matching. Fuzzy logic integrates recruiter selection patterns through interpretable membership functions and rule sets, while the ensemble architecture utilises models like Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and XGBoost to improve predicting accuracy. The system was subjected to extensive evaluation using curated Kaggle recruitment datasets, benchmarked against established baseline models. Experimental results demonstrated substantial performance enhancements, with nDCG@10 = 0.964, Precision@5 = 0.948, Recall@5 = 0.931, MAP = 0.957, AUC = 0.981, and RMSE = 0.082, outperforming conventional methodologies. The suggested approach automates extensive screening while ensuring openness, allowing HR experts to track decisions to comprehensible rules. The suggested study integrates powerful machine learning with human-aligned reasoning to improve the efficiency and lack of trust in AI-driven recruitment platforms. Its use could optimise talent acquisition processes, reduce bias, and enhance recruitment results across several industry sectors.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
