Description
Talent Approved provides an AI-powered platform designed to streamline the hiring process through skill assessments. It allows users to create role-specific skill tests quickly and efficiently, moving beyond traditional CV screening to focus on proven candidate abilities. The core of the platform is its 'Magic Create' builder, which can generate a comprehensive assessment—including questions, answers, and tags—from a simple job description, a list of skills, or notes from a hiring manager. Users can then review, tweak, and publish these drafts in minutes.

The platform is structured around three main steps: creating a skill test with AI, inviting candidates, and reviewing results. For test creation, users describe the role or paste a job description, and Magic Create drafts a multiple-choice test. This includes answer options, the correct answer, and relevant tags. Users retain full control, able to edit any question, add their own, and organize a reusable question library. The system also supports pasting existing questions from other tools or documents, automatically splitting them into clean pairs.
Candidates are invited via unique one-time links, a shared self-serve link, or email directly from the app. A key feature is that candidates do not need to create an account or install anything; they simply open the link, enter their name, and begin the test. Billing is based on completed assessments, with a pay-as-you-go model at $5 per candidate, and the first three candidates are free for new workspaces. This eliminates subscription fees or per-seat charges, making it suitable for occasional or burst hiring needs.
For results review, Talent Approved provides scored and ranked candidate outcomes, highlighting any anti-cheat signals. Each candidate's profile includes a per-question breakdown, an AI-generated summary, AI-suggested interview questions, and a synced screen and optional webcam replay of the entire session. The AI also compares the cohort to surface the strongest candidates or recommend against hiring if no one clearly stands out. The candidate experience is designed to be clean and focused, with one question at a time, optional timers, and localization into 14 languages, including right-to-left scripts. Screen recording is disclosed upfront, and continuous webcam/microphone recording can be required with explicit consent for higher-stakes roles.
Talent Approved is ideal for founders, small teams, agencies, and recruiters who hire occasionally for specific roles and prefer not to commit to annual platform contracts. It supports various roles beyond developers, including support, sales, virtual assistants, and analysts. The platform aims to replace subjective screening with structured, scalable, and role-specific assessments, ensuring confident hiring decisions.
