Our Origin Story
Our Why
We built Skill Squirrel to enable the growth of trusted work-based relationships for the benefit of people who are experiencing career transition (e.g., entering/re-entering the workforce or new to a region) or who typically have greater challenges advancing their careers (e.g., require more accommodations or flexible work arrangements), because we believe everyone should have the opportunity to obtain satisfying work and be recognized for their unique capabilities.
The Problem
Automation is having a profound impact on jobs and hiring processes.
Jobs are being eliminated and new jobs are being created at a rate faster than ever experienced before, and hiring systems are max out trying to filter for the best candidates when every resume looks like a perfect fit.
This is creating new challenges for hiring and advancement.
The Solution
Skill Squirrel is embracing a new data paradigm for skills-based hiring and advancement to empower workers and learners to increase opportunities and economic mobility.
We do this by enabling skills-based interactions to be culminated with verifiable credentials as digital proof of capabilities and accomplishments, which can be more effectively consumed by hiring systems for more effective selection processes.
