Open Evaluation

Certyco OE
Book it for yourself.

An interview-style evaluation. No job on the table, and the result is yours to keep.

An Industry Expert twelve to twenty years into your field, still working in it, assesses you for 90 minutes, one on one, then writes it up. One conversation about real work, with someone who does it.

Is this worth it? Honest answers

Five things, all of them yours to keep.

Private by default. You decide who sees it.

  • Scores on four dimensions, and on every skill. Each out of 5, with a written comment.
  • A written assessment. What you handled well, where you fell short, and the evidence for both.
  • The recording. All 90 minutes, so you can hear the questions again.
  • A development plan. What to work on next, from someone senior who just spent 90 minutes on you.
  • A Certyco Mark you can show. Awarded at 3.5 and above, valid for twelve months.
