About Nort
Recruitment that starts with competence
Nort is a recruitment platform for developers. In its reverse recruitment model, professionals bring together code, language and behavioral profile assessments in one profile. Companies use this evidence to find talent and start conversations. Each professional decides whether to move forward.
Nort is the brand of the recruitment and assessment platform available at nortjobs.com. The domain and nortjobs social profiles refer to the same platform.
Finding a good opportunity and finding the right person should not require repeated processes or decisions based on first impressions.
Values
We believe that...
Time should not be lost to repetition
Professionals do not need to start again for every role. Companies do not need to discover everything from scratch in every conversation.
Competence is measured rather than assumed
Standardized assessments create a clearer basis for understanding what each person can do before a decision is made.
Conversations start with context
Companies understand the profile better before making a proposal. The recipient chooses whether to move forward.
Methodology
How we assess
Nort's assessment covers three dimensions in one session. Each module uses an open, internationally recognized framework, which makes results comparable across candidates from any country. The platform operates in 14 languages.
Personality and behavioral profile
Based on the Big Five (IPIP-NEO), the most studied psychometric model for professional contexts. Measures five dimensions and thirty sub-facets, generating a detailed behavioral profile. It is the same framework used by consultancies like McKinsey and by People Analytics teams at technology companies.
Language proficiency
Follows the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) standard, the European Union's reference recognized in more than 180 countries. The assessment is adaptive and measures reading, writing, listening comprehension, and oral expression, classifying the candidate from A1 to C2.
Technical competence in a real environment
Instead of algorithmic puzzles, the candidate works in a real environment with IDE, code execution, and automated tests. Challenges include code review, debugging, and practical problems in more than 20 languages. An additional module evaluates collaboration with AI.
All frameworks used are in the public domain, auditable, and documented in academic literature. Results can be verified by any company on the platform.
