Compliance · Human-in-the-loop
The machine does the work.A human makes the call.
Human-in-the-loop is not a setting in Talara. It is how the platform is built: a person owns every consequential decision.
What is human-in-the-loop hiring?
Human-in-the-loop hiring means a person stays responsible for every consequential decision even when software does the work leading up to it. In Talara, no candidate advances, no offer sends, and no role closes without a recorded human approval; the gate is a database constraint, not an optional setting.
Why it matters
When AI does the work of hiring, accountability still has to rest with a person. Three forces make human-in-the-loop the baseline:
- Regulation: the EU AI Act classifies hiring AI as high-risk and requires human oversight.
- Fairness: a human reviewing the reasoning is the check that catches bias an automated score would pass through.
- Trust: candidates and hiring managers accept AI assistance when a person, not a model, owns the outcome.
How Talara enforces it
The gate is not a toggle a busy admin can switch off. Advancing a candidate, sending an offer, and closing a role are each blocked at the database level until a named person approves them. Tally can propose, draft, and prepare; it cannot act on a candidate alone.
Every approval is written to the immutable audit trail with the actor, the subject, and the before-and-after, so the human decision is provable after the fact.
What stays human, what the AI does
Tally does the work: drafting roles, sourcing, screening, scheduling, summarizing, and preparing offers.
You make the calls: who advances, what an offer says, when it sends, and whether a role closes. That division is the whole point of an agentic ATS.
The work, automated.The decisions, yours.
