The assessment layer behind hiring teams at regulated enterprises

The same rigor bar for every hire that matters.

Most tools own one lane. Prelim runs one defensible scoring model across the three hardest hiring problems in the enterprise.

Leadership

Assess the people who set direction.

Structure executives respect — 360° input, situational judgment, and psychometrics that predict how someone leads under pressure.

360° reviewSituational judgmentExecutive psychometrics
Technical

Not trivia — a live, proctored environment with real repos, system-design tasks, and AI-assisted anti-cheat your engineers trust.

Grade the answers a rubric can't.

Prelim's assessors read long-form responses, code, and case work the way a senior reviewer would — scoring reasoning, not keywords, and catching inconsistency across a candidate's whole session.
