Hirevue Momentum Accelerates as Employers Emphasize Skills-Based Hiring
Hirevue, a global leader in skills validation, has shared strong results for the first half of the year, with growth fueled by significant new customer acquisition, continued demand for skills-based hiring and assessments, expansion across U.S. and international markets, and the launch of new AI-powered products. The company more than tripled bookings from new customers in the first half of the year.
The period has been marked by a broader shift in the industry: teams are looking to move from traditional hiring signals toward validated skills, hiring science, and data that identifies candidates with the capabilities to succeed. As AI floods the hiring process, employers increasingly need technology they can trust and defend — technology that is transparent, science-backed, and validated to predict real-world performance.
"Our first-half performance shows that organizations are fundamentally changing how they think about identifying talent. The growth we're seeing across new customers, assessments, and global markets tells us the shift to validated skills is durable and accelerating."
— Jeremy Friedman, Chief Executive Officer, HirevueGrowth Across Customers, Assessments, and Markets
Alongside tripling new customer bookings, Hirevue saw accelerating demand for its science-backed skills assessments, which more than doubled assessment bookings year-over-year. The company also earned FedRAMP Certification for its next-generation platform, strengthening its ability to serve federal agencies with secure, enterprise-grade hiring technology. Internationally, Hirevue deepened its momentum in the Middle East with new and expanded deployments at leading organizations across the region.
That expansion reflects a growing consensus among talent acquisition leaders that identifying real capability, rather than relying on resumes and interviews alone, delivers better, faster, and fairer hiring decisions.
"By leveraging AI-powered platforms and integrated data, TA teams can identify, attract, and engage top talent — often before competitors even know those candidates are available."

Hirevue's first-half momentum was further supported by the launch of two new products. Assessment Builder gives teams the ability to create assessments backed by validation research in minutes, while AI Interviewer brings the company's decades of hiring science and validation expertise to voice-based conversational AI — helping enterprises uncover qualified talent at scale while maintaining the rigor, transparency, and governance required for high-stakes hiring decisions.
The company also strengthened its leadership team during the first half of the year, adding Samir Gulati as Chief Marketing Officer and elevating Matt Foggett to Executive VP of Worldwide Sales. The appointments bring additional expertise as Hirevue scales its technology and expands into new markets. As organizations increasingly turn to skills-based hiring and validated AI to make faster, more confident talent decisions, Hirevue says it will keep investing in the science and products that make those decisions possible.
