# What will AGI do for Practical Skill Assessment?

## Overview

Hiring managers and certification bodies struggle to measure how well a candidate actually performs complex role-specific tasks. While verbal interviews and multiple-choice exams test theoretical knowledge, they fail to reveal a worker's ability to execute multi-step practical workflows or diagnose real-world failures. This forces organizations to either hire based on proxy credentials or pull senior staff away from production to manually grade take-home assignments.

The bottleneck lies in the unstructured nature of real-world problem solving. Practical tasks generate complex outputs with multiple valid approaches, making them impossible to evaluate using standard rubrics or basic keyword matching. To build an accurate assessment, companies must maintain sandbox environments, construct realistic datasets, and deploy human evaluators to trace a candidate's logic and execution path.

Existing assessment tools default to generalized algorithmic puzzles or automated trivia because they lack the capacity to interpret nuanced work products. Organizations remain trapped paying high labor costs for manual review or accepting operational delays from false positives who test well but fail to execute on the job.
