From Screening to Verifying: The Next Era of Recruiting
Recruiters don't look at resumes anymore.
They just don't guarantee skills. Neither is a perfectly rehearsed interview.
Candidates can now use AI to tailor applications, prepare answers, complete assessments, and present themselves more convincingly than ever. That creates a fundamental challenge for employers: how do you know whether someone is genuinely capable or simply good at passing the hiring process?
Join Calibre and leaders from motif, TriEdge Investments, Handshake AI, and Fireworks AI for a practical conversation about moving from candidate screening to candidate verification.
We’ll explore how hiring teams can test real capability through job-relevant work, live reasoning, demonstrated evidence, and structured evaluation. We’ll also examine how to verify that the work belongs to the candidate, distinguish genuine expertise from AI-assisted performance, and determine whether someone can succeed in the actual role.
Topics include:
What does it mean to verify a candidate?
Which hiring signals still matter when resumes and interviews can be optimized by AI?
How can employers test real skills without creating artificial assessments?
How do you distinguish deep expertise from polished or AI-generated answers?
What evidence best predicts whether someone will perform well on the job?
How can verification remain fair, consistent, and respectful of candidates?
Panelists:
- Aviv Sheriff, CEO of Motif, building the tools redefining how skills get verified
- Bryan Lee, Founder of Subgraph, recruiting for companies like Exa, Fireworks AI, fal and many more!
- John Kay, Director of Technical Recruiting at TriEdge Investments, hiring for Hypha, Arbiter & Anthuria at the highest bar in the game
For talent leaders, recruiters, founders, and hiring managers who want greater confidence that the person they hire can actually do the job.
