What a candidate brief includes
Role and seniority: Title, level, and professional scope.
Location or remote policy: Current base and work preferences.
Tech stack highlights: Core skills aligned with your role.
Screening question answers: Direct responses to your must-haves.
Relevant signals: Present and future indicators from daily.dev activity.
Why this matters for recruiters
Skip first screens: You already see the essentials before an intro.
Higher quality: Only developers who opted in are included.
Faster cycles: Move directly into interviews instead of discovery calls.
Important:
A candidate brief is not a CV. It is designed to give you the most relevant, up-to-date information to decide if you want to talk further.
FAQs
Q: Do I get the developer’s CV?
Not by default. If you need one, you can request it after the intro.
Q: Are compensation expectations included?
Yes, when provided by the developer. Otherwise you can confirm during the first call.
Q: How is this different from a LinkedIn profile?
It is shorter, more relevant, and includes real-time answers to your screening questions.
