HOW WE VET TALENT

Screened before you ever see a profile.

Quality isn't a slogan at Petra — it's a pipeline. Every candidate clears four pillars of screening before they reach your shortlist.

THE FOUR PILLARS

Every candidate clears all four before you see a profile.

◆

Skills Verification

Role-specific testing, not just a resume review. A Sales Rep makes real cold calls. A developer ships real code.

⚡

English Fluency & Communication

Screened live, so there's zero friction with your team from the first call.

◎

Reference & Background Checks

Previous employers contacted directly, so you're never taking a risk on a stranger.

✦

Culture & Reliability Fit

Assessed for how they show up under pressure — not just what's on paper.

THE PIPELINE

From application to your shortlist.

1

Application

Sourced from Petra's existing talent pool or fresh applicants screened on intake.

2

Skills Test

A role-specific task graded against a rubric — not a gut feeling.

3

Live Interview

Communication, fluency, and composure assessed in real time.

4

Reference Check

Direct outreach to past employers before anyone advances.

5

Final Match

Only candidates who clear all four pillars reach your shortlist.
