Description
Layer9 helps engineering teams assess candidates before technical interviews. It uses realistic work scenarios, adaptive follow-up questions, and changing constraints to evaluate technical reasoning. Instead of a single score, it produces an evidence profile with strengths, concerns, missing evidence, and targeted interview questions, while keeping hiring decisions with humans.
