Problem
Traditional hiring processes often rely on resumes and interviews, which can be subjective, time-consuming, and prone to unconscious biases, leading to inefficient hiring and overlooking qualified candidates. Companies struggle to effectively assess candidates' skills and predict their on-the-job performance, especially when seeking diverse talent.
Solution
WeSolv offers a skills-based candidate assessment platform that connects companies with qualified talent through real-world, project-based challenges. The platform enables companies to evaluate candidates based on demonstrated skills and performance data, reducing hiring bias and improving the quality of hires.

The platform leverages a network of MBA and advanced-degree professionals, incentivizing them to participate in challenges and showcase their expertise. WeSolv's candidate screening tools score deliverables using a structured rubric grounded in validated I/O psychology data and company-specific skills criteria, providing performance insights that go deeper than traditional screening methods.
