The problem

CVs can't show AI skill.

Job ads ask for it. Old take-homes miss it or ban it. So you guess.

  • Job ads ask for AI skills

    Most teams now want people who build well with AI tools. A CV can't show it.

  • Old take-homes miss it

    They do not show how someone works with AI. Some even ban it.

  • So you guess

    You meet people without knowing how they really build.

What you get

Real work, graded by real people.

For every candidate, you get three things.

Every candidate builds Dispatch. Same brief, same rubric, fair to compare.

Demo
