Koru Careers

Koru (joinkoru.com) was a Seattle-based predictive hiring and people-analytics SaaS company. Its platform built a per-employer "predictive hiring fingerprint" and scored candidates against the Koru7 Impact Skills assessment — Grit, Rigour, Impact, Teamwork, Curiosity, Ownership and Polish — via a 20-minute online pre-interview that produced a Candidate Fit Score, with the stated goal of increasing quality of hire and reducing screening bias. Products were marketed as Koru Hire and Koru Develop. The company was acquired by Cappfinity: between February and November 2020 joinkoru.com began redirecting to koru.cappfinity.com, where the Koru7 Impact Skills Assessment was carried as a Cappfinity product. That subdomain now redirects to cappfinity.com, which carries no remaining Koru branding, and the joinkoru.com domain has lapsed and currently serves unrelated online-gambling affiliate content. Koru published no public developer portal, documentation, or API; this profile is retained as a historical record of a defunct company and no live endpoints are catalogued.

Koru Careers is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Human Resources, Recruiting, Talent Acquisition, and People Analytics.
