Stop screening resumes. Start hearing them think.

AI made every resume look the same. McCoy IQ gives candidates a real business problem to talk through, so you see who’s actually worth a call before you spend an hour on a phone screen.

“I’ve been telling recruiters for years: the resume is a story they wrote about themselves. McCoy IQ is the first tool that lets you see how they actually think. And you can do it in less time than a phone screen takes.”

How McCoy IQ cuts your maybe pile in half

Three steps. Most teams launch their first challenge within an hour.

Challenge page preview
01

Post a real challenge

Pick a problem the role actually has to solve. McCoy drafts the prompt, branding, and intro. You tweak in minutes.

02

Send it to your maybes

Drop the link in your outreach. Candidates respond in 5–10 minutes from their phone. Unlimited retakes. You see their best.

03

Watch them think

Short video responses, ranked. You move forward with the people you’re actually excited about, and skip the ones you’d have written off after a phone screen anyway.

What it replaces

  • 30-minute phone screens that confirm the resume.
  • The “maybe” pile that grows every week.
  • Async screening tools that candidates ghost.
  • The gut-feel decision you can’t actually defend.

What you get instead

  • A 2-minute video where you watch them solve a real problem.
  • An audit trail. Same prompt, same conditions, fair comparison.
  • Hours back per role. Spend them on the people you’d actually hire.
  • A signal resume reviewers can’t fake their way past.
