01

The problem

A resume says what someone claims they can do.

ZapMyJob asks for proof instead.

02

What I built

Hiring by proof of work, instead of resumes.

  • Artifacts: work a candidate has actually made.
  • Micro-tasks: short, real pieces of work.
  • Voice screening.
  • Now in beta.

03

How AI agents built it

Built with the two-model loop from How I build.
