why choose truffle for pre-employment assessments

The tools other assessment platforms don't have

Generic personality tests are table stakes. Here's what Truffle adds on top.

Review 50 candidates in the time one phone screen takes

Candidate Shorts compress every interview into a 45-second highlight reel — with reasoning for every clip selected. Magic Review lets you move through your entire pipeline without clicking into profiles, loading videos, or navigating back. Watch the highlights, read the reasoning, advance or pass. Next candidate.
45-second highlight reels with timestamped transcripts
AI explains why each moment was selected
Advance, hold, or pass with keyboard shortcuts
Full interviews always available when you want to go deeper

Combine video interviews with talent assessments

Three assessments, each designed to surface something different — and none of them have a universal right answer, so candidates can't game the results.
AI selects relevant questions based on your role
No right answers — alignment is based on your criteria
Gaps become conversation starters, not disqualifiers
Applicant screening software question assessing candidate's work pace and urgency preferences with AI suggested options.

Know when candidates let ChatGPT do the talking

AI-polished resumes got them in the door. AI detection helps you see who's still using it once they're on camera. Truffle flags responses that show patterns of AI assistance — so you can watch the video yourself and decide what it means.

Context signal, not an automatic rejection

why generic assessments fail

Personality tests don't predict job performance. Context does.

Most pre-employment assessments measure traits that don't connect to on-the-job success. You get a personality profile that tells you someone is 'conscientious' but nothing about whether they can handle your specific challenges.

We built Truffle's assessments differently. Every question is selected based on your role requirements. There are no universal right answers. Scoring is based on alignment with your criteria, not a generic benchmark.

Combined with video interviews, you see the full picture: how someone scores on structured assessments and how they communicate, think, and present themselves on camera.

That's what pre-employment assessment software should actually do.
