Bottom line

SimpleHire is not an ATS. Staffing teams buy recruiter credits for a verified candidate profile covering identity, skills, work auth, and a shareable screening report. Level 1, 2, and 3 plans are quoted. New workspaces start with free screening credits and no card.

Stands out for: A role-based voice interview with adaptive follow-ups plus proctored skill checks (browser, desktop, second-device) produces a client-ready report and submission-readiness score.

Watch out for: Bullhorn ATS sync is listed as coming soon, so today you submit the report outside the ATS. Work authorization covers 14 visa status types as an optional check, not a full FCRA background product.

Overview

SimpleHire sits in front of the submission. Candidates complete a role-based voice interview, a proctored skills check, and optional government-ID plus work-authorization steps. The output is a verified screening report with a trust score, not another resume inbox.

Credits are purchased and reused across candidates. Every new workspace starts with free screening credits and no card. Paid Level 1, 2, and 3 packages are quoted. The product is explicit that it is not an ATS.

Who it's for

Best for

  • Staffing recruiters who submit verified profiles to clients instead of raw resumes
  • Desks filling junior, technical, or high-value roles that need skill evidence
  • Teams that want ID face-match and work-auth checks without running a separate CRA
  • Agencies that will share a certificate or QR-style report rather than rebuild screens

Not ideal for

  • In-house TA teams shopping for an ATS with pipelines and job posts
  • Buyers who need a live ATS writeback on day one (Bullhorn is still coming soon)

Key features

Reusable prescreen. Identity, skills, eligibility, and references in one QR profile recruiters can scan instead of restacking a resume.

Staffing-first. Built for teams who submit to clients. Not an ATS and not a job board.
