About VeraHire

We ran the hiring you’re running now.

Our founders built and ran businesses that hire at volume, from a 500-location operator to EF Professional English in China. VeraHire is the first round they wanted back then.

Why we built it

The first round is where good candidates get lost.

Open one frontline role and hundreds of applications arrive. Someone skims each resume in seconds and books as many phone screens as the week allows. The rest of the pile goes unread.

We have run those funnels. The bar drifts between morning and late afternoon, and good candidates take another job while they wait for a call.

So VeraHire reads every resume against the job description, interviews the candidates you choose by voice, and hands your team a ranked shortlist with the evidence attached.

How we build

Principles we will not trade away.

Fair, consistent evaluation

Every candidate is measured against the same bar, whether they are application number 4 or 4,000.

Evidence over gut

Every score traces back to something the candidate actually said. VeraHire checks each criterion in the job description on its own, so your team can read why a candidate ranked where they did.

Humans make the final call

AI does the heavy lifting of the first round; it never makes the hire. VeraHire ranks and explains, and your team decides who moves forward.

Speed without cutting corners

Going faster means every candidate gets a fuller look: a scored resume and, for the ones you choose, a full first interview.

Independent audit

Checked by someone outside the company.

An independent third-party audit applied the standard set out in New York City's Local Law 144 to VeraHire's resume screening and interview-transcript analysis, and found no conclusive evidence of disparate impact across race or ethnicity, sex, or their intersections. It is not a certification, and it is not a guarantee that any hiring process is free of bias.
