Our take

Founded in 2018, The Selection Labs offers assessment technology designed to streamline hiring by providing objective and scientifically validated tests. By focusing on soft skills and integrating with existing HR software, the company aims to revolutionise the selection process, making it more professional, objective, and inclusive.

The Selection Lab leverages its software to enable recruiters to objectively analyse candidates' soft skills and make informed hiring decisions. The company's smart data layer allows for the comparison of candidates across different groups, aiding in fair and unbiased selection.

With recent funding, The Selection Lab is poised for significant growth and impact. The infusion of capital will fuel the company's expansion in technology and sales, as well as support strategic marketing efforts to acquire new clients.
