Technical hiring has changed

Real-world assessments, not algorithm puzzles

The job is directing agents, reviewing output, and shipping in a real codebase. LeetCode-style puzzles never measured that. Many newer AI screens only replace the puzzle with a fluency label.

SkillFoundry measures the work as it happens: investigation, AI judgment, verification, authenticity, and how the result compares to engineers you already trust.

Why SkillFoundry

Measure how candidates direct AI — not whether they use it

If a vendor added AI to a coding screen, ask whether it clears this bar. SkillFoundry was built for it.

Buyer checklist

  • Can a reviewer open the evidence behind any score?
  • Does the number map to your own engineers?
  • Is AI use judged for quality, not punished?
  • Can legal see retention, erasure, and audit logs?
  • Will a proxy candidate leave a trail?
