Shift Consulting Shift Consulting
Recruitment & technology consulting

Every candidate has
already been interviewed.
Properly.

Most agencies forward a CV and an impression from a phone call. We run every candidate through a structured, scored technical interview first — then send you the evaluation report alongside the CV, so your first conversation starts from evidence.

The problem

A CV tells you
almost nothing.

By the time a shortlist reaches your engineering team, someone has usually already decided who is worth their time — based on a keyword match and a fifteen-minute call. That is why so many technical interviews start from zero, and why so many end in a polite no after an hour that nobody can get back.

The cost lands on both sides. Your team burns hours re-screening. Good candidates get filtered out by people not equipped to assess them, and never find out why.

What makes us different

We own the software
we screen with.

Shift Consulting is the services division of GoodShift Private Limited, a product company that built CypherMeet — an interview platform used to run structured, scored technical rounds. We use our own tool on every candidate.

01

A real interview, not a chat

The same question set and the same rubric for every candidate applying to the same role — with an optional live coding round. Consistency is what makes the comparison between two candidates mean anything.

02

A report you can actually read

Which topics were covered, how correct the answers were, where the candidate struggled, and how they handled being stuck. Not a score out of ten with no working shown.

03

Fair to the person, too

Candidates see their own report. They are never charged a fee. Integrity checks, when a client wants them, are explained and consented to before anything begins.

The process

Four steps.
You see all of them.

No black box, no mystery shortlist. You will know how each candidate was found, what they were asked, and how they answered.

  1. We take the brief properly

    Not just the job title — the stack, the seniority, the team they will join, and what would actually make someone fail in the seat.

  2. We source and do the first filter

    We find candidates and screen them ourselves, so you are not reading fifty CVs to find three worth a conversation.

  3. Every candidate sits a scored interview

    A structured technical round on CypherMeet, with an optional live coding exercise and, if you need it, environment integrity checks.

  4. You get the CV and the evidence together

    Shortlist delivered with each candidate's evaluation report attached. You decide from what they did, not from our opinion of them.

Straight answer

We are new. Here is why that is worth something.

Shift Consulting launched in 2026. We are not going to show you a wall of client logos we have not earned, or numbers we made up. What we can offer is the founders' direct attention on your search, a screening process no established agency in this market runs, and terms that reflect the fact that we are proving ourselves.

We are backed by a registered company with products live on the App Store, Google Play and the desktop — so the engineering judgement behind the screening is not borrowed.
