Work

AssertHired

My own product, built and run solo. Accounts, payments, scoring, and a dashboard behind it all

The AssertHired homepage, a dark interface with one real interview question ready to answer beside the headline: don't tell them you're good at QA, prove it.

Where it started

Interview practice for software testers

This one is mine. It exists because the practice tool I wanted did not, and because I wanted to know if I could run the whole thing solo

What I built

How it came together

People sign up, pay, run a practice interview and get scored. Every one of those is where a normal site stops and something harder starts. Accounts survive a forgotten password, payments survive a declined card

It is here because it is the honest evidence for the full build. The dashboard I offer clients is a smaller version of one I already run

What is on it

  • Accounts and password reset
  • Payments and receipts
  • Automated interview scoring
  • Public verification page for results
  • Admin dashboard
  • The whole thing, solo

One decision

Why this one is dark and your site will not be

It is a tool for software testers, used with a terminal open beside it. Dark fits that room. Your site is opened in daylight by someone deciding whether to trust you
