Introduced flags to combat fraud. Flags don't specifically indicate fraud; instead, they point out factors that might require additional review beyond just basic qualifications. Flags include signals of AI-generated or overly tailored resumes, unrealistic claims, invalid LinkedIn profiles, and virtual phone numbers.

Use flags and previous rejections to bulk reject
