Automated Decision-Making: Our AI Hiring Assistant
Pulse GTM uses an AI Hiring Assistant, built on the WorkScout platform and powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4o, to assist with reviewing job applications. The AI Hiring Assistant scores submitted applications across four categories: Skills Match, Experience, Communication, and Cultural Fit.
Importantly, the AI Hiring Assistant does not make hiring decisions on its own. Every application is reviewed by a human recruiter or the relevant employer before any decision is communicated to a candidate. The AI Hiring Assistant’s scores are a tool to assist human decision-makers, not a substitute for human judgment.
The personal information used in this process is drawn from the content of your submitted application, including your resume and any responses provided as part of the application process.
Sensitive Information
We will only collect sensitive information (such as information about your health, or membership of a professional or trade association) with your consent, or where otherwise permitted by law.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose your personal information to:
-
Employers, in relation to a job application you have submitted
-
Candidates, where an employer initiates contact through the platform
-
Our service providers, including hosting, payment processing, email marketing (Mailchimp), and AI service providers
Overseas disclosure: Some of our service providers are located overseas. In particular, our AI Hiring Assistant is powered by OpenAI, which is based in the United States, and application content may be processed by OpenAI’s systems as part of this service. We take reasonable steps to ensure our overseas service providers handle your information in a manner consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.
Cookies and Website Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, understand how visitors use it, and improve our services. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Direct Marketing and Newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter or career advice updates via Mailchimp, we will use your email address and name to send you relevant content. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send you.
Data Security and Retention
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss, and unauthorised access.
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy. Candidate data is generally retained for 24 months from your last activity on the platform, after which it is securely deleted or de-identified, unless you request earlier deletion. Employer account data is retained until the account is cancelled, plus a reasonable wind-down period.

You may request access to, or correction of, the personal information we hold about you by contacting us using the details below.
