It's worth noting that HireVue, the company used to process the applications, is not a First Round Capital-funded startup, which is unusual as VC-firms tend to favor their own startups for external affairs. (Hacker News, for example, has had interaction with YC companies Octopart, Algolia, and Firebase, possibly more.)

I think they got this idea from indie.vc

There might not be a startup in the First Round portfolio that fulfills that particular use case.

I'm tempted to put my product, which is a competitor to Hirevue, in the applicant pool.
