For Recruiters & Hiring Managers

Will this candidate actually thrive — or churn in 18 months?

Read candidates beyond the polished answer.

Score authenticity, coachability, culture-fit, and stress-response from interview transcripts, take-home write-ups, and Slack samples — before you make the offer.

4+ outcomes unlocked for recruiters & hiring managers in a single workflow.

"We stopped losing senior engineers to 9-month exits. The coachability score caught two 'perfect on paper' hires we would have made." Priya R.

"Honestly, my last team was great but leadership kept changing direction. I led the migration end-to-end. I'd say my biggest weakness is that I care too much about quality."

Honest answers

The objections every hiring brings — answered.

Is this legally safe to use in hiring?+

Profyls scores work-product language only — no protected-class inference. Each deployment is adverse-impact audited and EEOC-aware.

Will candidates know they're being scored?+

Yes. We require disclosure language in your application flow and supply ready-to-deploy consent copy.

Can it replace a take-home or work sample?+

No — it augments them. Profyls reads the language patterns inside them so you don't have to re-interview your gut.

Does this work for non-English candidates?+

Core LIWC categories cover 11 languages today. Vertical-specific scoring is English-first; multilingual on roadmap.
