Psych-Fit
Identify the best candidates before reading Resumes/CVs
Psych-Fit helps SMEs identify their strongest candidates before reviewing Resumes/CVs. Built by an Organisational Psychologist, our science-backed assessments measure work fit, motivation and aptitude to automatically rank applicants based on their potential, not just their keywords. Spend less time screening, reduce hiring costs and make better hiring decisions.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Ed, the founder of Psych-Fit.
Over the past few years I've watched hiring become increasingly difficult for SMEs. Employers receive hundreds of applications for a single role, while candidates optimise Resumes/CVs to satisfy keyword-based screening systems. As application volumes continue to rise, it's becoming harder not easier to identify who is genuinely the right fit.
Throughout my career in recruitment and business transformation, I repeatedly saw capable people overlooked because hiring decisions were based primarily on CVs rather than evidence of how well someone would actually perform in the role.
As an Organisational Psychologist, I wanted to approach hiring differently.
That's why I built Psych-Fit.
Instead of asking employers to screen hundreds of CVs, Psych-Fit places a short, structured assessment at the beginning of the hiring process. In around 5 minutes, candidates complete assessments designed to measure:
🧠 Work fit
🚀 Motivation
📈 Cognitive ability
💼 Role-specific aptitude
Candidates receive meaningful feedback on their results, while employers receive a ranked shortlist based on objective work-fit signals before reviewing a single Resume/CV.
Our goal isn't to replace human judgement, it's to help employers spend their time interviewing the right people instead of searching for them.
🎉 Product Hunt Launch Offer
To celebrate our launch, we're inviting 10 companies that are actively hiring to pilot Psych-Fit completely free.
If you're recruiting right now, we'd love to work with you, learn from your hiring process and help reduce the time spent screening applications.
I'll be here throughout the day to answer any questions about Organisational Psychology, assessment design, hiring challenges or the product itself.
Thanks for checking out Psych-Fit I really appreciate your feedback and support!

Like many hiring managers, I've experienced the frustration of reviewing hundreds of job applications only to discover that the best candidate wasn't always the one with the most impressive résumé.
That led me to ask a simple question:
What if we could assess how someone is likely to perform at work before the interview, rather than relying primarily on their Resume/CV?
Psych-Fit combines work preferences, motivation, cognitive ability and skills into a single employer-friendly Fit Score to help businesses shortlist candidates more confidently.
We're still in the early stages, so today isn't just about launching—it's about learning.
I'd genuinely love your feedback on:
Does the value proposition make sense?
Is anything confusing?
Would you use something like this in your hiring process?
If you're an employer, recruiter, HR professional, or simply interested in the future of hiring, I'd really appreciate your thoughts. I'll be here all day to answer every question.
Thanks for checking out Psych-Fit! 🚀
