Anonymized design-partner brief

How a professional hiring team could test the shortlist handoff before scaling.

This composite design story shows the intended structure of a VettifyIQ pilot without presenting invented customer results, testimonials, or commercial traction.

Buyer-first evaluationClear product. Clear evidence. Clear responsibility.

Built for serious conversations across Talent Acquisition, HR Operations, hiring managers, Legal, Privacy, Security, Procurement, and AI Governance.

This is an anonymized composite scenario based on the approved pilot design. It is not a completed customer case study and does not claim observed outcomes.

01

The operating problem

A mid-market professional-services employer receives a large applicant pool for business-critical professional roles. Recruiters rebuild context across resumes, managers receive uneven shortlist rationale, and the organization wants a more reviewable use of AI assistance.

02

The pilot hypothesis

A structured role profile, evidence-linked candidate comparison, visible validation gaps, and a manager-ready brief should reduce avoidable review effort and shortlist rework while preserving accountable human judgment.

03

The controlled design

The team selects one to three active roles, names the reviewers and managers, agrees candidate-data boundaries, records the current process, and defines success measures before candidate information enters the workspace.

04

The operating cadence

Recruiters use the workspace during the six-week engagement, managers provide structured input, and the team reviews adoption, exceptions, evidence completeness, governance questions, and support needs each week.

05

The scale decision

The executive readout compares the agreed baseline and measures, documents user feedback and risks, and supports a decision to stop, refine, extend, or convert to an annual agreement.

What the pilot must prove

Measure the operating change, not just whether the software opens.

A credible design-partner story becomes publishable only after the baseline, data source, result, limitations, and customer permission are documented.

Recruiter screening effort

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Elapsed time to a manager-ready shortlist

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Manager confidence in the recommendation

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Shortlist rework cycles

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Evidence and validation-gap completeness

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Reviewer adoption and governance completion

Baseline, measure, owner, data source, and success threshold agreed before launch.

Evidence gate

What will turn this into a real customer story.

VettifyIQ will publish a named or anonymized outcome only after the customer approves the facts, the metric method is reproducible, limitations are visible, and no candidate or confidential information is exposed.
