One technical standard for every candidate, whatever channel they came through.
You hire from every direction at once: direct applicants, agency-supplied consultants, referrals, names from your own pipeline. Give them all the same real task, scored the same way, so a candidate is a candidate no matter where they came from.

What is at stake
You need one standard you can hold everyone to
Across teams, managers and suppliers, the technical bar drifts. Governance is not a slogan when a decision is questioned, it is whether you can describe the standard that produced it.
What fragments
Every channel, its own bar
Direct, agency, referral: each qualifies its own way, so the candidates they send you cannot honestly be ranked against each other.
What you owe upward
A defensible standard
When a decision is reviewed internally, the answer cannot be that it depended on which channel or which manager handled it.
What holds a supplier
The same bar for all
A standard you can name is the only thing that holds an external supplier to the same level as your own team.
Live in an afternoon
Three steps from the job post to a shortlist you can defend, with no screening calls.

The same test, wherever the candidate came from
One task per role, run by every candidate in an isolated cloud environment, scored automatically the same way for each. It is one standard applied to everyone, not a link to your other systems. How that scoring is defined, our validation approach is written up in plain terms.
- The same task for every candidate on a role, whatever the source
- Scored automatically on the end state of a real system, so there is no rater variance
- The result kept on record, the same for every candidate and every channel
The questions we get
Straight answers on how the tests, the scoring and the credits actually work.
What is a Scalyz lab, exactly?
A real virtual machine with a real mission, not a quiz. The candidate works with the same tools they'd use on the job, and the session is recorded so you can review the evidence later.
Who scores it?
Automatically. The checks run against what the candidate delivered, and you get a report broken down skill by skill, so no one on your team grades a thing by hand.
Can they cheat with AI?
A chatbot can suggest commands, but it can't run a live system for the candidate. The mission has to be done on the machine itself, and any cheating signals come with context, so you can judge them yourself.
What do I pay?
In credits: one per candidate. A credit is reserved when you send an invitation and released if it expires unused. You pay per candidate tested, never per user.
Can I bring my own exercise?
Yes. Upload your files as a .zip, rename the mission to match your role, and run it yourself for one credit first. What you tested is exactly what candidates get.
What is it like for candidates?
On their own time. They start when it suits them, work with real tools on a real machine, and finish in one sitting. It runs in English and French.
Give every channel the same standard
