VERYFY vs. SHL / psychometric tests

Psychometric and aptitude tests from providers like SHL assess cognitive ability and personality traits. They can be predictive in aggregate, but they don't verify what someone has actually built, shipped, or achieved.

Evaluates real, demonstrated work rather than abstract aptitude.

Evidence and validation make the signal concrete and defensible.

Reduces adverse impact by centering proof of capability.
