Candidate FAQs
What do the challenges look like? How much time do they take?
Challenges mirror real work for the role and are intentionally small, typically 30–90 minutes. They’re used for evaluation only (not to produce company deliverables). After you submit, you’ll get a scorecard you can choose to share on your profile to showcase your skills.
What are the rewards?
Some challenges are sponsored with a cash rewards pool. After the hiring team reviews, top submissions receive cash rewards. It’s pay-for-proof, not pay-to-apply. We recommend employers budget roughly 50% of the role’s hourly rate × the estimated task time, but exact payouts vary by role and company.
Will this really help me get hired faster?
Yes. Your challenge scorecards power matching, so recruiters can verify skills with work samples, not just keywords. That means more targeted outreach where your strengths fit and a higher chance of moving straight to interviews. You control visibility and which scorecards you share.
Is Qualifyr free?
Yes. It is free to join, browse roles, submit challenges, and build your portfolio.

Hiring Manager FAQs
What are Challenges and how do they work?
Candidates complete a small, role-realistic task (usually under 90 minutes). Your team reviews scored outputs against a rubric, so you see proven skill not just a resume. We’ll have a bank of customizable challenge templates at launch.
What are rewards and how do they work?
Instead of paying for impressions or clicks, you fund a reward pool that rewards the strongest submissions. You set the budget, we provide preliminary grading, handle payouts to candidates, and surface a smaller, more qualified shortlist so you hire faster with more confidence. Use the same budget, better results.
Will Qualifyr integrate with our ATS and systems?
Yes! Seamless workflows are a day-one priority. We connect to popular ATSs and support API/webhooks so challenges, scores, and notes flow into your process with minimal setup.
How do you ensure fairness and prevent cheating or AI-generated answers?
We combine randomized inputs, and similarity/AI-assist detection with audit trails while scoring results. Reviewers get a scorecard with flagged items and suggested follow-ups to confirm genuine ability.
