FAQ

Questions we hear first

Short answers. If yours is not here, write to us from the homepage.

What is 16 Signals?

A shortlist built from demonstrated work. Each application becomes a brief on skills the work shows, claims the CV makes, fit for the role, and what is still worth asking.

Who is it for?

Hiring teams who want to see the work before they book the call, and engineers who want that work read instead of summarized by a CV alone.

What do I need to get started?

Join the waitlist with your email. We'll open candidate and employer accounts when sign-in is ready.

Does public work tell the whole story?

No. The brief also marks what the work cannot show yet, so the interview starts from a real gap instead of a generic script.

How much does it cost?

Candidate profiles are free during early access. Employer pricing is on the pricing page and still opens through a conversation.

Where is the contract address?

A placeholder sits in the footer as CA xxxx…pump. It will be replaced with the live mint when it is published.
