Filtered Raises $10M in Financing

Filtered

Filtered, a Boston, MA-based platform that automates technical interviews and reduces bias to speed hiring, raised $10m in financing.

The round was led by AI Fund, Silicon Valley Data Capital and TDF Ventures.

The company intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations and its business reach.

Led by newly appointed CEO Dan Finnigan, who held CEO roles at Yahoo!, HotJobs, and Jobvite, Filtered provides an automated technical interview platform to enable large companies to hire technical talent from a complex, virtual, and global talent pool. In minutes, the system evaluates a candidate’s fit for the job, team, and company through capabilities-based hiring. Filtered automates applications, screening calls, and coding interviews, allowing companies to hire top talent faster across AI, data science, computer science, full-stack development, blockchain, and DevOps.

Fortune 500 companies, such as Cigna, Enterprise Holdings and The Federal Reserve Bank, already use it.

Usama Fayyad, Executive Director of the Institute for Experiential AI at Northeastern University and Chairman at Open Insights, will join Filtered’s Board of Directors, bringing his AI and data expertise as the world’s first Chief Data Officer at Yahoo! and Global Chief Data Officer at Barclays Bank.
