The week before week one

Meet them at work,
before you hire.

WeekZero drops your candidate into a live simulated team — AI coworkers with their own agendas, hidden information, a mid-week crisis — and hands you an evidence-backed report no interview could produce.

How it works

1

Send a link

Pick a role scenario and invite your candidate by email. No accounts, no installs — they open a link and join the team channel.

2

They work a real week

Conflicting stakeholders, docs to dig into, priorities to set — and a crisis that lands mid-session. There's no script to game and no single right answer.

3

You get evidence

Ratings across five dimensions, every one backed by verbatim quotes. Plus what they never did, and the interview questions worth asking next.

"Requested the churn data, was offered it three times, never opened it — then anchored the sprint on the redesign anyway." — from an actual WeekZero report. Interviews don't catch this.

Why WeekZero

AI-proof by design

Candidates ace take-homes with ChatGPT. In WeekZero that's fine — we measure judgment, prioritization, and collaboration live. Skills AI can't fake on their behalf.

Respects their time

Adaptive early-stop ends the session the moment there's enough signal. Our strongest candidates finish fastest — not after a four-hour essay.

Evidence, not vibes

Every rating cites the transcript. Every claim is checkable. Built for defensible, consistent hiring decisions.
