Résumés hide skill. Truffle finds it.

Traditional skills assessment software forces candidates through generic multiple-choice tests or game-style exercises (think HireVue games).

They feel impersonal, and they rarely predict performance. We give every candidate a chance to show—not tell—how they think, solve problems, and communicate.We replace static quizzes with role-specific questions that mirror real work. AI pinpoints soft skills, red flags, and culture adds in minutesHiring managers see ranked shortlists instead of raw recordings

Built for roles where skill matters most

Built for roles where skill matters most. Live interviews lock everyone into calendar Tetris. Automated, one-way assessments break that gridlock.

Candidates record structured answers on their schedule; hiring teams review on theirs.

No email ping-pong, no rescheduling; just high-signal responses ready for instant scoring. It’s fairer, too: working parents, night-shift staff, and neurodiverse talent can showcase their best work without the pressure of a live Zoom call.

Truffle's candidate assessment software makes the biggest impact with these use cases.
