Problem & solution

A résumé no longer proves capability.

Any candidate can now generate a resume that mirrors your job description word for word. What is written on the page says less than ever about whether the person can actually do the work. Screening harder does not fix this — it only makes the screen slower.

The only reliable evidence is performance. PowerTechs uncovers true skills beyond résumés and difines contenders versus pretenders, making candidates do the work first, then ranking them on what they actually demonstrated. It captures task-level performance and converts it into a verifiable, portable record of what a person can actually do.

Focus

Main use case — military-to-civilian transition.

A military résumé loses a lot on the way to a hiring team — the acronyms don't translate, and plenty of what veterans can do never gets written down, because they don't think of it as a skill worth listing.

Two candidates with the same MOS can be years apart in real capability, and neither résumé will tell you which is which.

From an unreadable military résumé to a verified, ranked skills profile
A raw military record → a verified, matched skills profile.
How it works

The platform looks like a video game.
The output is a ranked shortlist.

We assess military-connected candidates in a hands-on simulation and return a ranked shortlist mapped to a specific job description — with the evidence behind every ranking.

01

Demonstrate

A game-like simulation captures task-level performance — not a self-description.

02

Skill profile

Performance becomes a verifiable profile of what the person can actually do.

03

Break down the role

We decompose the job description by skill and level so the match holds up.

04

Ranked shortlist

Candidates ranked against the role, with the evidence attached to each.

What lands on your desk

A ranked shortlist for one specific req.

Filter by job description, by minimum rating, and by when the candidate separates from service. Open any row to see the evidence behind the ranking — requirement by requirement.

Every rating traces back to recorded task performance. No self-reported skills, no résumé keywords.
How the ranking is produced

Nothing in the ranking comes from a self-description.

The score is not a personality read or a keyword match. It is built from recorded actions inside the simulation, checked line by line against your req.

01

Your req, decomposed

We turn the job description into a list of testable requirements and confirm it with your hiring manager before anyone is assessed.

02

Task-level record

The simulation logs what the candidate did, in what order, how long it took, and where they asked for help.

03

Requirement ↔ evidence

Each requirement is marked demonstrated, partial, or not shown — tied to the specific task that proves it.

04

Ranked and defensible

The rating is the weighted result. When a manager asks why someone is at the top, the answer is a record, not an opinion.

Roles we cover

Built around the roles you actually hire for.

Power technicians
Generation sets, controls, diagnostics, scheduled and corrective maintenance
Field engineers
On-site troubleshooting, commissioning sequence, customer-facing decisions
Machinists
Print reading, measurement, setup and prove-out, tolerance discipline
Logistics
Parts flow, inventory accuracy, scheduling under constraint
Engineers
Applied problem solving, root-cause reasoning, documentation quality
Office and administrative
Systems accuracy, prioritization, written communication under volume

Simulations are built per role family and tuned to your job descriptions.

What changes for your team

Your recruiters read a shortlist, not a stack of documents.

No more decoding

Military job codes, unit names, and duty descriptions are translated into your requirements before the list reaches your team. Nobody spends an evening guessing what an MOS means.

Matching you can defend

Each ranking is tied to demonstrated tasks. When a hiring manager challenges a candidate's place on the list, the answer is a record of what that person did.

Skill-level visibility

You see which specific requirements a candidate has proven and which they have not — so you know before the interview where the training gap sits and how long it is.

A transparent pipeline

Filter by separation date to plan starts around SkillBridge windows, and see the full pool behind the shortlist — including who was screened out and why.
