This is an excellent outline of hiring best practices, each of these bullet points belongs here. And yet, for every firm that does this, there are at least 10 that don't. That means that there is a rich market for what reg is proposing, and it means that the solution merely has to be more attractive to the employer than moving to current best practices. I find myself often forgetting how dysfunctional a lot of organizations are, only to be spectacularly reminded of it, again and again. And there are people at those organizations who know they aren't going to be able to overhaul hiring, but they have a budget, and they have a problem, and there are not a lot of great options. Those are the target customers for something like this, not Google and Foursquare and AirBnB.
