Overview

Skillfully operates a recruitment platform centered on simulations and assessment grading that lets employers evaluate candidates through skill-verified assessments. The platform also enables employers to hire directly from its TalentNetwork, which includes national career partners such as universities, community college systems, HBCUs, and workforce development organizations. Skillfully positions its TalentNetwork to surface a diverse and motivated candidate pool often overlooked by conventional resume-first hiring tools and professional networks. The company is led by CEO Brett Waikart. Skillfully raised $2.5M in seed funding to support its growth. The company intends to use the funds to expand operations and further its product development efforts.
