How the wedge works

Three layers of evidence. One ranked shortlist.

Jobma scores how candidates talk on camera. Truffle scores three signals against the criteria you set, and shows why each one ranked the way it did.

Layer 01

Resume screening with explainable scoring

Jobma covers basic resume tools at a low entry price. Truffle parses every resume against your intake criteria, applies qualification questions that gate the funnel, and shows the reasoning behind each match score so you can defend the call to a hiring manager.

Qualified · meets 4 of 4 must-haves
Layer 02

One-way video with AI Match scoring

Jobma collects async video and includes basic skills tests. Truffle's video flow adds AI Match scoring against the criteria you defined at intake, AI Summaries cited to specific responses, and 30-second Candidate Shorts that pick the most-revealing moments and explain why each was chosen.

Candidate Short · 30 sec · cited
Layer 03

Validated assessments, not just skills checks

Jobma offers simple skills tests with basic personality testing. Truffle layers IPIP Big Five Personality, Situational Judgment, and Environment Fit assessments validated for hiring use, with results in the same candidate view as resume and interview signals.

Why teams switch

What you might be experiencing with Jobma

01

You can't see a price without a demo

Jobma's pricing page is a quote form. The free trial follows a sales call with agreements attached. For a recruiter trying to fill a role this month, that's a week lost before the product is even open.

With Truffle

Truffle posts the price on the page: $149/month, or $99/month with annual billing. The 7-day trial starts the second you sign up, no credit card, no call. The first Position Link is live in under 10 minutes.

02

One signal isn't enough when resumes are AI-generated

Jobma collects how candidates talk on camera, and it does that well. But it doesn't screen resumes against your criteria, and its assessments are coding-focused. Video alone is a fragile signal when every applicant is using the same AI to write their resume and prep their answers.

With Truffle

Truffle stacks three screening layers in one workflow: resumes for credentials, one-way interviews for communication and presence, and assessments for judgment and work style. Each layer adds a signal that's harder to fake than the last. You see all three side by side in one ranked shortlist.

What Truffle does differently

Three screening layers, one candidate view

One workflow

Resumes, interviews, and assessments in one Position Link

Every candidate enters one workflow you design. Resumes get parsed against your criteria, interview responses transcribe and score, and Personality, Situational Judgment, and Environment Fit assessments add evidence beyond self-presentation. Everything ranks into one shortlist with one match score.

  • Resume screening with qualification questions
  • One-way interviews with Candidate Shorts
  • Personality, SJT, and Environment Fit assessments
Self-serve

Transparent AI

AI surfaces. You decide

Match scores trace back to the criteria you set during intake, AI Summaries cite specific responses, and Candidate Shorts pick the three most-revealing 30-second moments and explain why. The AI is compressing the time between hundreds of applications and a real shortlist. It isn't making the call for you.

  • Match scores against your criteria
  • AI Summaries with cited responses
  • 30-second Candidate Shorts with reasoning

FAQ

Common questions

Don't see your question? Get in touch and we'll respond the same day. Get in touch.

  • How does Truffle compare to Jobma on pricing?

    Truffle is $149 per month, or $99 per month with annual billing. Both prices are listed on the page and include unlimited positions, unlimited team members, and 150 candidates per month. Jobma's pricing is quote-based. You request a price through their pricing page, sit through a demo, and get back a number tied to your hiring volume. For a small team with predictable needs, Truffle's flat self-serve plan is usually the cheaper option and always the more transparent one.

  • Can I try Truffle without a sales call?

    Yes. The 7-day free trial starts the second you sign up. No credit card required. No demo needed. You build your first position, send the Position Link, and start reviewing candidates. If you want a walkthrough we'll book one, but it's optional. Most teams set up their first role on their own in under 10 minutes.

  • Does Truffle do coding assessments like Jobma?

    No. Truffle's assessments are Personality (built on validated Big Five research), Situational Judgment Tests scored against your team's preferred approach, and Environment Fit assessments that surface whether a candidate's work-style preferences match the role. If your hiring is heavy on coding tests with on-camera proctoring, Jobma is purpose-built for that. If you want assessments that measure judgment and temperament alongside resume and interview signals, Truffle is the better fit.

  • Can I import my candidates from Jobma?

    Truffle doesn't pull data directly out of Jobma. The cleanest migration is to point your next open role at a Truffle Position Link and let your existing Jobma pipeline finish on its own. Most teams are fully on Truffle within two to three weeks. If you have specific Jobma candidates you want to re-engage, our CSV bulk invite handles that in one upload. Native and Zapier integrations cover most ATS handoffs from there.

  • Does Truffle work without a mobile app?

    Yes. Truffle's candidate experience runs in any modern browser on any device. Candidates click the Position Link, complete a mic and camera check, and record their responses. No app download. No account creation. This matches the friction reduction recruiters are usually trying to solve when they leave Jobma's app-based smartphone flow.
