Overview

Discover invisible talent and boost your company's performance.

How does it work?

Job applicants fill out a simple, 3-question digital interview. Two reports are generated in minutes: a competency assessment for the recruiter and a personal report for the applicant.
Because of its simplicity, speed and accuracy, Pera allows for large-scale, high-quality assessment and more detailed talent selection.

Diverse, Equal and Inclusive by design

The Pera algorithm looks at how people write, not what they write. It simply has no opinion or bias, and disregards education, experience or ethnical background by default. By doing so, it opens up a world of talent formerly disregarded.

The smart solution

Pera focuses on how people will perform in their next job, regardless of background. It substantially reduces the chance of mishires, and the immense costs that come with it.

Integration details

Pera is integrated with SmartRecruiters via Joynd. Customer integrations are also available.

The Science behind Pera

FAQ

We directly measure the competencies we know lead to success. Our A.I. uses language data to benchmark team members to 5.5 million professionals in our database on the competencies that our data shows lead to success. This approach is unique and only possible with A.I., and leads to better predictions than anything on the market today. Because of our approach, we only require 15 minutes from team members. Additionally, we do not use self-assessments, which is common in personality based competitors.

Besides having shown strong statistical correlations in our 7+ years of work (see the science behind Pera), we have been able to strongly impact the partners we have worked with. High scorers on our ‘Commercial Success’ benchmark generate 194% of their peers’ revenue within the first two years of working, while other Pera top scorers are 2.8x more likely to be marked as top performers compared to their peers.

Yes. This is due to two main things: 1) the method and 2) the depth of data. Based on 7 years research and development we found the optimal between candidate experience and accurate outcomes. The Pera Skope assesses ‘how’ someone writes and looks at over 200 markers in the responses, connecting this to intelligence about successful professionals. Intelligence gained from researching millions of people identifying the competencies that have proven to deliver success in jobs.
