use science to match candidates + companies

information overload 250 resumes : 1 job time spent per resume: 6 s

poor information “all resumes look the same” “do GPA/test scores matter? ”

>60% applicants cut at resume stage

high cost of turnover <200% of employee’s annual salary lost

high turnover rate 30-50% of candidates fail within 1st year

current recruiting process

perils of the job search

“Does anyone even look at my resume?”

“How do I know which job is right for me?”

“I think my resume just goes into a black hole.”

the pain is felt by companies too “all resumes look the same!”

“are we missing top candidates?”

“will this person be a cultural fit?”

“we want more diverse candidates!”

“do test scores and GPAs really predict job performance?”
