valid8 is the preeminent Personal Employability Verification solution for technology professionals, a securely managed, digital repository of independently verified personal and employment data that signals to recruiters and hiring managers that you are employable.
valid8 members distinguish themselves from the stacks of other applicants as ‘real’, pre-checked, ready-to-start candidates, not “fake” or AI candidates. valid8 lets employers know that you will fast-track through the background screening process with no hidden surprises.
More interviews. More offers. Faster hiring. valid8.
Your ‘TSA Pre-Check’ for Employment.
Proactively complete your employability checks to distinguish yourself and prove your authenticity from the "fake" and AI candidates.
Organize all employment related information in a secure digital employment vault.
Pre-valid8 your credentials to fast track the recruitment process and go from interview to started, faster.
When you are open to new work, be discovered by employers that are seeking “real” applicants that want to be contacted.
You were the perfect applicant. You know you have all the knowledge and experience they were looking for, but you never heard back.
“Fake” applicants are everywhere now, and they are making it harder for “Real” applicants to get the interview or the job they want. Imagine 250 resumes sitting in front of an employer. How do they know you are the real job seeker they are looking for?
Be successful in your job hunt by proving that you are a “Real” applicant. It shouldn’t be necessary, but it is.
Employers understand the “fake” applicant issue, but they don’t know how to resolve it.
They want ‘real’ applicants as much as you want to show that you are ‘real’. But employers and authentic candidates aren’t finding each other.
That’s why we are partnering with employers big and small to highlight the value of actively seeking out pre-verified candidates, the value of bringing trust back into hiring. And as we grow the valid8 ecosystem of employer partners, the more opportunities will be created for our members to be valued, and hired, for their authentic selves.
If your employer could benefit from a dose of authenticity in its hiring process, let us know!
Security is foundational to how the valid8 platform is architected and operated. We employ a layered, defense-in-depth approach spanning application security, infrastructure, operational controls, and identity verification workflows.
We work with trusted security and identity partners including Drata, Okta, AU10TIX, and InfoMart, all of whom maintain strong security and compliance standards. The platform is being developed in alignment with OWASP security best practices, with documented security, incident response, and escalation procedures.
Sensitive information is encrypted during transmission, processing, and storage. Security is one of the core architectural pillars of the platform, and we intend to pursue formal SOC 2 compliance as part of our long-term operational and governance roadmap.
“ The recruiting world moves faster and is more volatile and dynamic than ever before. Those that succeed will meet the challenge, respond quickly and remain competitive in an era of accelerated change. Being able to shrink the recruiting cycle only to those fully vetted candidates, is a huge ingredient towards this success. valid8 is this key ingredient. It’s a clear game-changer. ”
