An ATS tells you where every candidate sits in the funnel. It can't tell you which of them is worth an hour of your team's time. Is this your hiring reality today?
Resumes are AI-optimised now. Real fit only shows up once you are already in the interview.
320 resumes, read by handNothing in a CV predicts how someone handles pressure. You find out weeks after the offer.
3–4 bad hires a yearYou are forced to use interviews as a screening tool. That is the expensive part.
160 hrs of interviewingCandidates fall between systems. Roles stay open while the handoffs catch up.
6 weeks to close a roleSee beyond the AI-optimised resume. psyHire reads the candidate, not the keywords — so every applicant reaches you already evaluated.
Every applicant is scored against the role before anyone opens a calendar.
Shortlist, Hold or Reject — with the signals behind every call.
Managers meet the top 10% only, and roles close in half the time.
Works alongside your existing ATS — or acts as a light ATS itself.
An ATS manages process. psyHire helps you make decisions.
Traditional psychometric tests take 30-45 minutes and rely on self-reported answers. psyHire uses a 5-minute video assessment where AI analyzes verbal and non-verbal cues.
Sixteen psychometric factors, scored from behaviour in the video —
not from a self-report questionnaire anyone can game.
psyHire scores sixteen psychometric factors: warmth, reasoning, emotional stability, dominance, liveliness, rule-consciousness, social boldness, sensitivity, vigilance, abstractedness, privateness, apprehension, openness to change, self-reliance, perfectionism and tension.
What takes hours of interviews, psyHire delivers in 5 minutes.
You're spending 60-70% of your hiring time interviewing
candidates who won't work out. Your HR team is buried under
hundreds of resumes, relying on keywords that candidates now
optimize with AI—missing the traits that actually predict success.
Skills, experience and personality, mapped against the role's real
demands and how your team actually works. One record, every signal.
Weighted against the scorecard you set for this role — not a generic average.
Read from delivery, pacing and non-verbal cues — never from a self-report checkbox.
Traditional hiring methods were built for a different era. Here's why they fail.
Result: Top talent filtered out
Result: Delays and team frustration
Result: Turnover spikes in months

We find psyHire's behaviour assessment to be one of the most effective to use in terms of understanding a candidate better and video-based psychometrics to be of great value compared to traditional questionnaire-based psychometric tools.
