Finding a solution for the job seekers in this brutal job market

Hello, I am currently building an HR tech/horing intelligence product/platform based on the market research I have done and the data collection from different platforms about the current hiring world problems but I want to check with the community again, what is the best solution that will help the job seekers in this harsh job market where finding a job is a hassle? Is it something related to referrals or fixing the ghosting problem or any other solution where the job seekers are benefitted while applying for jobs?

I have been brainstorming myself but based on the recent posts here I would like to check with the right people.

Looking for a mentor

Hello Everyone,
I am working on an HR tech intelligence platform that solves the current major hiring process issues like fabricated resumes by AI that don't match the candidate's real capability for work, and the employer's huge costs of mis/wrong hires and missing out on real talent.

I have completed the research, idea validation using surveys, in person interviews with the professionals, PRD and spec documentation, prototype, and started with the development but realized it would need funding to build a robust and intelligent system as it is intended to be.

I need some guidance and advice on the aspects of the channels and resources to find the investors, and a few other aspects. Any leads would help, let me know if anyone is interested, I can schedule a quick 10-15 minute call.

Looking for investors for an HR Tech Intelligence Platform(Early Development stage)

I am building Dossyr, a hiring platform that replaces traditional interviews with verified realistic work simulations, so employers evaluate candidates on actual job performance instead of resumes and interview performance; seeking a pre seed to build out the full product and launch publicly.

The Problem:
Hiring is broken on both sides of the table:
• Fabricated signal: AI-written resumes and rehearsed interview answers no longer reflect a candidate’s real ability to do the job.
• Candidate fatigue: Job seekers fill out near-identical applications from scratch dozens of times, with no reusable proof of their actual skill.
• Employer cost: Mis-hires are expensive, and traditional interviews are poor predictors of on-the-job performance, so companies both overspend and miss real talent that doesn’t interview well.

The Solution:
Dossyr replaces the interview with realistic, role-specific work simulations that measure how a candidate actually performs, not how well they interview. Candidates complete a simulation once and build a portable, verifiable performance record they can present to any employer on the platform, cutting out repetitive applications. Employers get a direct, evidence-based read on capability instead of a proxy signal from a resume or a 45-minute conversation.

I've completed market research, candidate and employer interviews, PRD and spec documentation, and a working prototype, and now raising to fund full development of the simulation engine.

Happy to do a quick 10-15 minute call to walk through the product and prototype.

Try this recipe that I like and let me know what you think

I've tried Matcha in a lot of places and made it at home too for the last decade or so. The recipe that I swear by most of the time is:

If you're ordering out(small/tall size)-
1.Matcha latte with almond milk or oat milk for best taste but regular milk should be fine too(NO coconut milk for this)- no added sugar/no classic strup(if it's starbucks)

And, only HALF a scoop of matcha -well mixed/stirred.
If you like a hint of sweet, get a vanilla cold foam or a little whipped cream(even if you're odering a hot latte, it will taste good as there is no other sugar/sweetener). But tastes creamy and tasty even without the sweet taste.

If you're making it at home
2. Use a matcha bamboo whisk to blend hot water and just 2 gms of Matcha powder per person.
whisk the mixture until it foams and let it sit for a minute or so( you can add teeny tiny amount of date palm sugar or monk fruit sweetener only if you want a hint of sweet but this should taste good even without that)
Add your preferred milk, cold or hot and enjoy it.

The reasons a lot of people don't like matcha latte is because the latte contains more powder than necessary and it's not stirred or mixed proplerly.

Technical hiring is still broken in 2026 — and I think I've found a way to fix it

I've been talking to recruiters and hiring managers for the past few months about technical hiring, and one thing keeps coming up.

Everyone screens the same way. Resume review, recruiter call, coding test, technical interview. Sometimes in that order, sometimes not. But almost always the same steps.
And almost everyone I talk to has hired someone who looked great through the whole process and then struggled in the first 90 days. Or passed on someone who probably would have been excellent because their resume didn't look right.
The tools haven't changed much. The problem hasn't changed much either.
I am currently building a solution for these issues.
Instead of a coding quiz, candidates go through a real work simulation and get scored across five dimensions instead of just one pass/fail. They do it once, and the profile is portable for future related roles, and there are other features as well.

I have a working prototype and I'm looking for recruiters and hiring managers who would be willing to spend 15 minutes to get a walk-through for validating it and sharing their thoughts.
If you have faced these issues as well and want to try how this new solution feels, comment below or send me a DM. Happy to find a time this week or next.
