The goal with HireHand is to help startups and small businesses hire people for skilled positions. It is difficult as a business owner to hire for jobs that you yourself are unfamiliar with the required skills. You search around and put all sorts of buzzwords in the job description, and you end up with a pile of resumes that have an equal amount of buzzwords and acronyms. Cut through that pile with HireHand. We can screen the candidates through phone interviews/online meetings and then present you with a much smaller pool of well qualified candidates. You are then able to concentrate on hiring a person that fits with your company and don't have to worry about whether the he or she has the skills to perform.

Is the screening process automated through some algorithm or it is manual? Just wondering because that is the toughest problem to crack.

The screening process is manual. We are starting with a few specific skillsets (i.e. web development) and have screeners with matching skills. After the screeners have reviewed resumes and/or portfolios, they will conduct phone or video interviews to continue filtering out applicants that do not meet the required skills for the position.
