LIVE SCENARIO
Sarah Chen
Sarah Chen (AI Client)
Video call in progress
Client Reassurance Call
Your client's portfolio is down 20%. They're panicking.
"I just checked my account and it's down so much. I think I need to sell everything before it gets worse."
"I completely understand that feeling—seeing those numbers can be really unsettling. Let's talk through this together before making any decisions."
"But what if it keeps dropping? I can't afford to lose more..."

Don't Take Our Word For It

The research is clear

"Interviews don't predict job performance. Very little to no evidence would say interviews will predict how I perform on the job. We use skill assessments and trials as ways to predict job performance."

Kristen Berman
Behavioral Economist — advises Google, Fidelity, and Airbnb on hiring decisions

"Someone can be very good in certain sales environments and completely fail in other ones. It's probably more binary than any other function. It's not hires, it's mishires."

Jason Lemkin
Former CEO of EchoSign (sold to Adobe) — has scaled dozens of sales teams

"There is no substitute for working alongside someone in the trenches. We were being influenced by aspects of an interview that have no bearing on how a candidate will actually perform."

Matt Mullenweg
CEO of Automattic (WordPress) — replaced interviews with skills trials for 2,000+ hires
The Problem

Interviews predict job performance
14% of the time.

Your phone screen can't tell you who'll build a book, who'll hit quota, or who'll survive their first difficult client. Half of new hires in sales roles wash out within 18 months — each one a $100-200K mistake.

The Gap

Credentials test knowledge.
The job requires skill.

Someone can ace every exam and still wash out—because nobody tested whether they can do the job.

What Gets Tested
  • Regulations & compliance
  • Product knowledge
  • Policy terms & procedures
  • Interview polish
What the Job Requires
  • Earning trust with skeptical people
  • Staying calm under pressure
  • Handling rejection and bouncing back
  • Having hard conversations

These skills are invisible in hiring today. But they can be measured. And they can be developed.

The Problem

The SIE exam tests securities regulations—not whether someone can earn trust, handle rejection, or keep clients calm when markets drop 20%.

Sample Scenario
"Your client's portfolio is down 20%. They're panicking and want to sell everything. You have 2 minutes to keep them invested."

The Problem

Licensing exams test policy terms—not whether someone can handle "insurance is a scam," stay motivated after 15 rejections, or build trust with strangers.

Sample Scenario
"A prospect says: 'I don't trust insurance companies. You're all just trying to take my money.' Keep them on the phone."

The Problem

Interviews test if candidates can talk about handling rejection—not whether they can actually handle it. 50 dials, 48 no's, and still sound fresh on call #49.

Sample Scenario
"You're calling a VP who said 'call me next quarter' three months ago. They just picked up. You have 15 seconds."
