# What will AGI do for Technical Capability Scoring?

## Overview

Engineering leaders and technical recruiters struggle to accurately measure a candidate’s real-world software development skills before extending an offer. Resumes and self-reported metrics frequently misrepresent actual engineering depth, forcing hiring teams to rely on proxy signals like past employers or university degrees. This evaluation gap leads to expensive mis-hires, prolonged interview cycles, and the outright rejection of capable engineers who lack traditional credentials.

Current technical assessment platforms rely on isolated algorithmic puzzles and static test cases that measure rote memorization rather than pragmatic problem-solving. These rigid formats fail to evaluate critical engineering competencies like navigating legacy codebases, designing scalable systems, or debugging undocumented APIs. Furthermore, the widespread availability of generative AI tools allows candidates to bypass standard coding tests effortlessly, rendering conventional screening platforms unreliable.

Evaluating true technical capability requires observing how an engineer makes trade-offs within a complex, messy software environment. Constructing and grading these dynamic, real-world simulations demands intense manual effort and time from senior engineering staff. Consequently, companies default to superficial, low-signal assessments to manage candidate volume, permanently sacrificing evaluation quality for pipeline velocity.
