To everyone who hires,
The best person for your role exists. Right now, they’re in one of two places: lost in a pile of résumés that all look the same, or doing brilliant work for someone else, with no idea your role is open.
Those are hiring’s two blind spots, and neither is anyone’s fault.
Hundreds of applicants. No idea who's good.
A résumé shows what someone claims, not what they can do, and no team has the hours to read hundreds of them properly.
Everything you can measure. Nothing that matters.
The best people often never apply.
They're already doing the job well somewhere else, and your job post never reaches them.
Doing the job well. Just not in your funnel.
We started Cohesyve to close both.
It goes out and finds the people already doing the job well, at competitors, in adjacent industries, in other cities, and reaches out to them. Then it asks everyone, applicants and sourced candidates alike, to do the work. A backend engineer fixes a payment endpoint that charges customers twice. A salesperson holds the price when an AI buyer says a competitor is 30% cheaper. An operations manager works out, from a spreadsheet, the month the company runs out of cash.
Everyone is measured on the same skills, against the same rubric. What comes back is a short list of people who have already shown they can do the job, with every score linked to the answer behind it.
What we believe
- 1
Proof over paper. A résumé is a claim. The work is the evidence.
- 2
The same bar for everyone. A candidate from a small company is judged on the same skills, against the same rubric, as one from a famous one.
- 3
The whole market, not just the inbox. The best person for a role is rarely the one who happened to apply this week.
- 4
AI recommends. People decide. Cohesyve never moves anyone forward or out on a score alone.
- 5
Show the working. Every score can be traced to what the candidate actually did.
Today, hiring teams across eight industries in India and the United States hire this way, from 40-person startups to listed companies. When you start, you won’t be handed to an account team: your first simulation is built with us, the people who built the product.
If you are hiring for a role right now, bring it to us. We’ll show you who’s out there.
