While working in technology in biz ops and strategy roles, I found that it is generally difficult to screen candidates for non-technical roles using just a resume. Degrees don't necessarily correlate with on-the-job skills.

Instead, I found actual take-home assignments to be a much better predictor of a candidate's on-the-job performance and hence a better method of screening.

This was the inspiration for building this tool. It's free to use. Welcome all feedback and suggestions.

Congrats on launching. A couple of thoughts:

- what % of candidates would be willing to do a take-home assignment before speaking with a real human at the company?

- check the landing page copy for typos (itmes —> items)
