Send candidates a 15-minute CCOI Skill Verify before you book the interview. Get a one-page scored report, calibrated to the role you're hiring for, before you put the calendar invite on your team's day.
CCOI Skill Verify is an abridged, role-calibrated assessment drawn from the same item pool the CCOI examinations use. It is not a credential — it is a pre-hire signal. Reports return same-day.
Submit the candidate's name, email, and the role you're hiring for. Choose from eight role calibrations: Budtender, METRC Operator, Inventory Controller, Cultivation, Manufacturing, Distribution, Compliance, or DRP.
The candidate receives a clean, branded link. 15 minutes on their phone. No login, no app install. Identity-verified with photo capture; integrity-flagged for unusual response timing or device behavior.
A one-page PDF report. Overall score, domain-by-domain breakdown, role-calibrated percentile band, integrity-flag summary, and a one-line recommendation: Interview / Interview with caution / Skip.
A clean, attribution-free assessment of the candidate's role-relevant operational knowledge. Designed to be readable in 30 seconds and forwardable to a hiring committee.
California cannabis hiring is broken. Resumes are unverifiable. References are useless. Most candidates have never been formally tested on anything cannabis-specific. Hiring managers burn hours interviewing people who can't pass a basic Type 10 quiz. CCOI Skill Verify gives you the same kind of objective pre-screen that finance, healthcare, IT, and construction take for granted — calibrated for our industry.

A pre-hire test only works if candidates actually take it. CCOI Skill Verify is built to feel respectful, professional, and short: phone-friendly, 15 minutes, clean branding, no app install, no account creation. Candidates who score well are invited to convert their result toward a full CCOI credential at the worker-direct rate.
It will cost a fully-loaded $25,000 to $50,000 before you can replace them. Skill Verify costs you nothing for ten sends. Try it on the next role you're hiring for.
