Keyword screens can tell you that a resume mentions a technology. They cannot tell you whether someone can design a system, debug a production issue or explain a trade-off to a team. An experienced engineer can.
What a live interview shows that a resume cannot
- How they reason about a real problem in their stack
- Trade-offs they can name and defend
- How they debug when the first idea fails
- How clearly they explain decisions and ask questions
Your team gets its time back
First-round technical screens take hours of your engineers’ time. When a professional reaches you through BragDev, an engineer in their field has already seen them work through a real problem, so your interviews can go straight to fit with your team.
The same bar for every candidate
