How CME Works
Everything you need to know about the platform.
From the intelligence layer that powers matching to the trust system that keeps hiring honest — guides for every part of the platform.
CME Intelligence
CME SmartMatch
The matching algorithm. Scores candidates against jobs using skills, location, experience, video, references, and trust signals. Transparent for both sides.
CME SmartCoach
AI-powered career guide for jobseekers. Capability summaries, personalized coaching, milestone tracking, and proactive intervention when patterns need attention.
CME SmartHire
The employer view. Maps work and volunteer experience into capability clusters so hiring teams see what candidates can actually do, not just where they worked.
CME SmartPost
Jurisdiction-aware compliance engine. Checks job postings against Canadian and U.S. rule sets with AI language review. New countries added as adoption grows.
