On this Job Market Candidates Verify Themselves Before Applying

WorkID.ai, founded by Thor Hesselberg, is launching a front-loaded candidate verification platform that combines biometric identity checks, digitally confirmed work history, and a portable trust score — aiming to counter the surge in AI-generated CVs and bot applications, according to Job Board Consulting. The platform shifts background verification to the start of the hiring process and targets a network of over 25 million verified professional profiles.
