Hiring & Mobility

Verify before you offer.
Mobilize before you post.

One verified skill signal across the entire talent lifecycle. The same engine that hires them develops them, mobilizes them, and promotes them.

Hiring posts roles. 

Mobility surfaces talent. 

The signal underneath should be the same.

Inferred skills run the talent stack. The cost shows up at both ends.

Inferred skills are a guess

Resumes describe. Interviews vary. AI is making the underlying signal less reliable, not more. The hire goes out on a feeling, not a verified fact.

Only 20% of companies use skills insights for hiring.
9% have a true skills-based internal talent marketplace.

Josh Bersin Company, 2024

The ideal candidate is already on payroll

Transferable capability stays trapped behind job titles. The requisition goes external while the internal mover stays stuck. Most companies never see the match.

Only 1 in 5 employees report confidence in their ability to make an internal move in their organization.

LinkedIn Workplace Learning Report, 2024

Cost compounds both ways

External hires get paid more and perform worse for the first two years. Bad hires cost up to twice the role's salary. Every miss costs again on the next external hire.

18 to 20% pay premium for external hires. Lower performance for two years.

Bidwell, Wharton

Two engines. One signal. The same scoring engine across the lifecycle.

Verify at the hire. Surface the internal slate. Same rigor. Same rubric. Same engine, end to end.
Engine 1. Workera Hiring

Decision-grade verification. 
Defensible by design.

The hiring & mobility journey

Verify the bar. 

Surface the slate. 

Match the move.

One loop. Two engines. The candidate becomes an employee on the same skill graph. The employee becomes the next hire on the same one.

1

VERIFY

Performance-based assessment

Workera Hiring delivers a Capability Score and skill-level proficiency for every candidate. Decision-grade evidence at the offer.

2

SURFACE

Internal capability graph

Ambient reads capability from the work itself. Transferable skills appear at the cohort, role, and person level, refreshed in real time.

3

MATCH

Internal slate, first

Every requisition runs against the verified internal slate before going external. Recruiters see candidates against the same bar, whether they joined yesterday or last decade.

4

DEVELOP

The same engine that hired them

AI-personalized coaching closes verified gaps in the flow of work. Promotions and mobility moves run on the same Capability Score that surfaced the candidate.

Built for the people deciding the hire

One signal answers the question every seat at the table is asking.

Recruiters. Hiring managers. Talent strategy. Finance. One source of truth, scoped to the call each one makes.

FOR TALENT ACQUISITION

Fill from inside first. Verify the bar at the offer.

Every external requisition gets matched against a verified internal slate first. The candidate experience is one your team is proud to send.

Internal slates that actually slate
Verified internal candidates surface against open roles in real time. Recruiters spend cycles on the right people, not the obvious ones.
Skills-first hiring at scale
Performance-based assessments with intelligent proctoring, custom benchmarks, and a candidate experience that maintains a strong NPS. Skill claims survive the offer.
AI cheating, neutralized
Two-stage integrity detection with question-level evidence. Defensible against the rise in AI-driven misrepresentation that point-solution proctoring missed.
Native to Workday and your ATS
Push and pull. Pull candidate and req data in for seamless enrollment. Push scores and integrity reports back for decisioning. Kombo connector live.

For Hiring Managers

Interview from a short list you can defend.

Capability Score and skill-level proficiency for every candidate. No more 30-resume stacks. No more interview-by-vibes.

A decision-grade scorecard
Capability Score for comparable decisions across candidates. Skill-level proficiency with task-level evidence for the conversation about why.
Comparable across the lifecycle
The same Capability Score that hires the candidate develops them, mobilizes them, and promotes them. No mid-flight handoff between systems.
Built for your actual workflows
Custom capabilities composed in under 30 minutes with AI Studio. The bar is set to your reality, not a generic question bank.
Faster offers, fewer regrets
Internal hires reach competency 20% faster than external hires. Workera's verified slate gets the best of both: internal speed, external rigor.

FOR THE CHRO

One platform.
One taxonomy.
Every talent decision sharper.

Hiring, mobility, promotion, certification, all on the same scoring engine. The signal compounds. The competing-vendor tax disappears.

One platform across the lifecycle
Same rigor. Same scoring engine. Same skills taxonomy. A candidate hired through Workera is developed and promoted on the same graph that hired them.
Retention by design
Employees at companies with high internal mobility stay 41% longer. Workera surfaces the internal move that keeps your best people from leaving.
Defensible to legal and works councils
Evidence-Centered Design. Auditable change history. Aggregate-by-default reporting. ISO 42001 trajectory. The compliance review lands quickly.
Skills-based, board-ready
The capability graph becomes the source of truth the CEO and board ask for. Skills strategy stops being a slide. It starts running in production.

FOR THE CLO

Lower cost per hire.
Lower cost per miss.
Lower stack TCO.

The math on external hires is brutal. Workera replaces it with verified internal-first sourcing on a platform that consolidates the assessment stack.

External-hire math, reset
External hires get paid 18 to 20% more and underperform internal movers for the first two years. Workera's verified internal slate flips the default.
Bad-hire cost, prevented
A technical mis-hire runs 1.5 to 2x the role's salary. Decision-grade verification at the offer eliminates the kind of misses that compound.
Stack consolidation
One platform absorbs assessment, skills inference, internal mobility, and learning workloads. Fewer vendors, fewer dashboards, lower TCO.
Defensible procurement posture
SOC 2 Type II. ISO 27001. GDPR. CCPA. ISO 42001 trajectory. The security and compliance review lands on the first pass.

The numbers say one thing: 

skills-based hiring and mobility win.

What the research shows when companies move from inferred skills to verified ones.

Internal mobility

FAQ

ATS systems track requisitions. Skills clouds infer capability from resumes, job titles, and self-reports. Both are predictions. Workera measures what your people can actually do, every day, with calibrated assessments at the offer and an always-on Ambient signal across the workforce. The same Capability Score that hires a candidate develops, mobilizes, and promotes them after.

That is the point. One scoring engine. One skills taxonomy. Same rigor across external hiring, internal mobility, promotion, and certification. A candidate hired through Workera is developed and mobilized on the same skill graph that hired them. Comparable scores across roles and across time. The signal compounds. It never gets handed off.

Two-stage detection. Programmatic event signals capture behavioral cues during the session. An agentic layer interprets them after to produce a question-level integrity report with evidence. The report supports reviewer judgment. It never auto-disqualifies. No webcams. No biometric capture. The defensibility is in the audit trail.

Fair, professional, free of surveillance theater. Candidates know what is monitored, why it matters, and that a human makes the final call. Identity verification before the assessment starts. A neutral close at the end. No score reveal, no celebration, no judgment. The experience is the kind your team is proud to send.

Most customers start with a single high-stakes role family in Workera Hiring (engineering, AI, data, sales) to prove out the verified-bar motion and the integrity layer. From there, the Capability Score becomes the spine for internal mobility, promotion, and certification across the same role families. Then Ambient turns the baseline into the always-on signal.

Workera sits on top of the systems you already run. Push and pull integrations move candidate, requisition, and outcome data between Workera and your ATS, HRIS, and L&D systems. Workday integration is live. Kombo connector is live. The picture of your workforce that lives in your system of record gets more accurate, not more fragmented.

Three places. First, the cost of every bad external hire your verified internal slate prevents (Bidwell finds external hires get paid 18 to 20% more and underperform for two years). Second, the cost of every technical mis-hire your decision-grade scorecard catches before the offer (1.5 to 2x salary, per SHRM). Third, the retention lift from internal mobility (LinkedIn finds 41% longer tenure at high-mobility companies). The ROI compounds because the signal does.
