Project Content
Our mission is to increase fairness in job interviews, decrease biases, and increase diversity in organizations. We build a video interviewing platform that provides a superior experience for both the candidate and the interviewer.

The research project is focused on the commercialization of the innovative product that Talentrify develops. Therefore we need to educate decision-makers about the potential of decreasing biases in job interviews and effectively communicate Talentrify’s value proposition. 
The project includes the development of Talentrify’s go-to-market strategy based on sales and marketing research as well as based on best practices from leading technology organizations.
