About Matchpoint Careers

The Company

Matchpoint Careers was founded in late 2009 and launched in Beta version early in 2011. We are the first fully automated use of performance-predicting science to place the right people in the right jobs.

Matchpoint Careers is not a job board, it is not job search.  It is job-person matching based on the scientifically validated predictors of success in each job.

With this, employers substantially increase the likelihood of placing the right person in the right job. Candidates increase the likelihood of securing a job and career that they will enjoy and where they will perform.
