Finding Talent with Advanced Tech | Josh Millet from Criteria

Most everyone running a company will tell you that assembling the right team is the single most important task you’ll face. And it’s one that will surely continue throughout the life of the company, to some degree. Sometimes the candidates you should seriously consider aren’t obvious from the résumé—and the ones you should pass only become clear once they sit down in the interview chair.

Josh Millet experienced this problem personally when he was asked to manage hiring for a company that had just acquired his first startup. “Anyone who’s been involved in hiring has one of those stories where you’re in an interview and it’s only five or ten minutes into the hour, and you look up at the clock, and you’re like, when is this going to be over?” Josh says.

It was that initial thought that eventually led to the creation of his current startup, Criteria, an HR platform that helps organizations make better hiring decisions by combining organizational psychology with data science. On this edition of UpTech Report, Josh talks about the functionality of this software, how it manages ethical considerations in the hiring process, and how it helped companies large and small build better teams.
