Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sarah's got a résumé three pages long
But can she do the job when things go wrong
Skills assessments tell the real story
Work samples show the path to glory
Structured questions, validated too
That's how we find the right fit for you

[Chorus]
Time to reform the hiring game
No more gatekeeping, that's so lame
Ten days max from start to offer
Skills over degrees in every coffer
Managers decide, HR supports
Compensation posted in all reports

[Verse 2]
Bachelor's degree for filing papers
That requirement's just old capers
Unless the law says credentials matter
Drop those barriers, end the chatter
Open doors for talent everywhere
Skills and passion, that's what's fair

[Chorus]
Time to reform the hiring game
No more gatekeeping, that's so lame
Ten days max from start to offer
Skills over degrees in every coffer
Managers decide, HR supports
Compensation posted in all reports

[Bridge]
Measure HR against the timeline clock
No more months of decision block
Hiring managers take the lead
HR helps with process need
Transparency in every pay range
This is how we make the change

[Verse 3]
From application to the final yes
Ten business days, nothing less
No more black holes, no more waiting
Efficient hiring we're creating
Post the salary, post it clear
Candidates deserve to know what's here

[Chorus]
Time to reform the hiring game
No more gatekeeping, that's so lame
Ten days max from start to offer
Skills over degrees in every coffer
Managers decide, HR supports
Compensation posted in all reports

[Outro]
Reform the process, reform the way
Better hiring starts today
Skills and speed and transparency
That's the future we can see
