OutMatch acquired the assessment company FurstPerson, which specializes in pre-hire simulations. The company said FurstPerson’s simulation tools complement its video interviewing capabilities, as well as OutMatch’s broader assessments, which measure communication skills, motivation and other traits.
In addition, OutMatch said a new talent-decision management platform uses technology such as FurstPerson’s to provide end-to-end hiring solutions. The platform ties candidate screening, assessments, video interviewing and artificial intelligence into a single integrated experience, which the company said will drive speed, efficiency and engagement while removing bias.
