What is Proof-of-Skill?

skill based hiring works! we're here to prove it

Imagine you want to hire a junior designer for your team. The recruiting team tries to understand your requirements but ends up publishing a generic catch-all job description. In a few days, you receive hundreds of applications from all kinds of design talent.

How do you find the people who fit your skill requirement from this stack of resumes?

• Resumes are filled with unverified claims.
• Degrees don't match the specific skills you need.
• Online certificates are given out without proper checks.
• Portfolios? They're often full of collaborative projects, making it hard to pinpoint individual contributions.
• Candidates often drop out because assignments are too time-consuming, with companies repeatedly asking them to prove the same skills over & over.

All these applicants, and it takes weeks to just identify those with the right skills before even considering further interviews or a cultural fit.

building unfakeable signals of skill - for design

Now, imagine if you could have a clear understanding of each candidate's knowledge and ability with verifiable proof.

That's exactly what Proof-of-Skill gives you.

On the Proof-of-Skill protocol, multiple design experts review candidates' assessments, reaching a consensus on skill levels & only then issue a proof-of-skill, making the process completely transparent & verifiable.

You can now find the right candidate for your requirements based on verified proof of exactly what they know and can do.

Proof-of-skill is putting back the Skills in skills based hiring.
