Talent Match
When done well, skills-based hiring leads to greater success filling job roles, more equitable hiring outcomes, and closing recruiting gaps. But even if you wanted to implement it, how would you get started?
That’s where Talent Match comes in--an AI-powered, skills-based hiring platform, based on verified credentials, rather than self-reported skill lists on a resume.

Skills-Based Hiring Reduces Bias
Sourcing candidates based on verified digital credentials puts the focus on a candidate’s skills and abilities, not outdated proxies.
Outdated proxies limit your talent pool. While 40% of white Americans hold a bachelor’s degree, only 26.1% of Black Americans do, a disparity much starker for women of color.
More employers are focusing on skills-based hiring to combat bias in hiring and Credly Talent Match helps companies build diverse teams.
