QuiqHire: Data-Driven Hiring for Business Growth

AI + Behavioral Science = Talent That Thrives

Go beyond resumes. Our AI-powered talent assessment platform blends behavioral science and competency mapping to identify high-potential candidates who will thrive in your culture.

What Makes Us Different?

Why 80% of Hiring Failures Stem from Poor Assessment

Traditional hiring is a coin flip. Resumes lie and interviews are biased. This leads to costly mis-hires, poor performance, and high turnover.

QuiqHire fixes this with a scientific, AI-driven HR solution that predicts on-the-job success.

Who We Are

Hiring Is Broken. We’re the Fix

Most talent acquisition tools are either too robotic (keyword-scoring ATS) or too subjective (‘gut feeling’ interviews). We bridge the gap. QuiqHire is built by HR consultants with 20+ years of experience fixing hiring fails. We’ve baked human intelligence and behavioral science into a platform that actually works:

AI that understands people

Our models analyze how candidates think, not just what’s on their resume.

Behavioral science baked in

We test for adaptability, collaboration, and resilience—traits that predict long-term success.

Built by HR rebels

20+ years of fixing hiring fails led us to build this.

PS: No more ‘hire and pray.’

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.1: How is QuiqHire different from other assessment tools or an ATS?

Most ATS systems just parse resumes for keywords, and many assessment tools provide generic personality reports. QuiqHire is an AI-powered talent intelligence platform built by Excellential. It goes beyond resumes and scores by analysing how candidates think and solve problems, using behavioural science to predict on-the-job success, culture fit and long-term retention for the exact role you’re hiring for.

Q.2: Is this just another psychometric test? Why should I trust it?

QuiqHire uses industry-standard, scientifically validated tools, including Hogan and EQ-i, as one part of a broader picture. Excellential’s HR experts synthesise these results with competency-based simulations to generate a predictive performance score. It’s not just a test; it’s a future-performance forecast built on 20+ years of HR expertise and outcome data.

Q.3: Won't this lengthen our hiring process?

Quite the opposite. QuiqHire drastically reduces time-to-hire. Candidates complete QuiqHire’s engaging, mobile-friendly assessments in 20-30 minutes, and hiring teams can identify top-tier, unbiased candidates within 3 days — eliminating weeks otherwise spent screening unqualified resumes and running inefficient first-round interviews.

Q.4: How does QuiqHire help reduce unconscious bias?

QuiqHire incorporates several features: Blind Hiring Mode, which can mask demographic details such as name, school and gender; Structured Data, which focuses on objective skills and traits rather than subjective ‘gut feel’; and Bias-Alert Flags, which highlight potential bias in human evaluator comments. Together, these ensure a fairer, more diverse and inclusive hiring process.

Q.5: What about the candidate experience? Won't they find this intrusive?

QuiqHire’s assessments are designed to be engaging and respectful. The experience is smooth and mobile-optimised, with an 80% completion rate — double the industry average. Candidates receive feedback on their strengths, making it a valuable experience for them, not just an obstacle to clear.

Q.6: Can we customize the assessments for different roles (e.g., Sales vs. Software Engineers)?

Absolutely. QuiqHire is not one-size-fits-all — hiring teams can create custom role-specific competency frameworks. The weighting given to traits like ‘resilience’ or ‘strategic thinking’ can be tailored to what matters most for a specific position, team and company culture.

Q.7: How do you ensure data security and privacy for our candidates?

Data security is a top priority for QuiqHire. The platform is GDPR and SOC 2 compliant, and all candidate data is encrypted at rest and in transit. QuiqHire acts as a data processor only clients retain full ownership of all candidate information, and Excellential’s policies are fully transparent and available on request.

Q.8: How do you measure the ROI? What kind of results can we expect?

QuiqHire’s clients typically see up to 80% fewer mis-hires, a 50% reduction in time-to-hire, a significant improvement in new-hire retention, and higher hiring-manager satisfaction. QuiqHire provides detailed analytics dashboards so each organisation can track these metrics for itself.

Q.9: Do you integrate with our existing ATS (e.g., Lever, Greenhouse)?

Every QuiqHire client gets a dedicated customer success manager to guide setup, training and rollout to hiring teams, backed by Excellential’s ongoing resources and support to help each organisation get full value from the platform.

Q.10: What level of support do you provide during implementation?
