What makes this sector hard

  • Buyer vs learner

    Teachers, admins, procurement and learners all matter. Rubrics capture which stakeholder the candidate actually served.

  • Content pedagogy

    Instructional design, learning science and content ops are distinct disciplines — scored explicitly.

  • Compliance and safeguarding

    COPPA, FERPA, SEND and GDPR-child-data belong in engineering rubrics — surfaced from the CV.

  • B2B sales cycles

    District and university procurement is long. Sales rubrics capture named accounts, RFP wins and pilot-to-district evidence.

The evidence we score against

Every candidate is scored against the role's rubric, and every score points back to a specific line in the CV. For edtech, these are the signals that carry weight:

  • Audience-specific rubric
  • Pedagogy portfolio surfaced
  • District/university procurement evidence

What your shortlist looks like

  1. A ranked set of candidates, each with a score and the evidence behind it.
  2. Eligibility checks resolved before the candidate reaches you — right to work, credentials, location model.
  3. Salary expectation against your band, stated plainly, before you invest interview time.
  4. One decision per candidate: advance, hold or decline, reversible for a short window.

Candidates stay invisible to you until we've reviewed them for your specific role, and contact details are released as a separate step.
