The motivation behind VARS came from observing the growing popularity of Desktop Virtual Agents designed to assist candidates during job interviews. However, most of these tools are either paid or have limited features.
This inspired us to create a free and accessible solution, recognizing that many job seekers—especially in developing countries—may not have the financial means to afford expensive services while searching for employment.
Additionally, VARS aims to accelerate changes in recruitment processes. Current selection methodologies often suffer from structural flaws, eliminating excellent candidates while selecting those who merely fit a "non-human" or artificial standard.
By leveling the playing field, we hope to encourage a shift towards more authentic and effective evaluation methods.
