The next generation of recruitment

Edison Watt is no fledgling startup. We've spent 30 years solving the biggest problems of old-fashioned hiring methods:

  • How to find the best person when you don't know where they are, and job ads can only be posted in one city.
  • How to objectively shortlist 30,000+ applications, when research shows résumé screening datapoints predict success as accurately as a candidate's star sign.
  • How to assess faraway candidates without bias, when you've never heard of their alma mater or workplace.
  • How to eliminate fraudulent behaviour, from watching cat videos all day to moonlighting five full-time jobs.

How it Works

Hire the best person in the industry.

Traditional recruitment wastes your time. Here's how we help you skip all the old-school manual steps and hire the perfect candidate by this time next week—without trawling résumés, interviewing duds, or lowering your standards.

2. Set smart filters
