The story of how Aboutly came to exist

It started 25 years ago.  The founder of Aboutly kept running into people problems in their dozens of businesses.

It was always the same problem, over and over again; people challenges and communications. Nothing seemed to work. They also noticed that people's problems seemed to be an issue for lots of other companies and relationships outside of work too.

Then they discovered assessment tools and started memorizing every person’s scores to try to improve, but it still didn’t work. Next, they discovered the idea of advanced interview-based neural network analysis. They partnered up with psychologists, trainers, hirers, and analysts. They spent 2 years developing a detailed analysis system for profiling with high degrees of accuracy and repeatability in ways that would catch people’s blind spots and traits that they weren’t aware of. The team then started to apply this to many different situations, particularly in businesses.

After using the Aboutly analysis, these businesses noticed that they were hiring better people and found that their lives were changing for the better in ways they had previously not been able to achieve.

The company built the initial software they use to help in the analysis in 2021 and is continuing to innovate and grow the process and the software. We hired our first interviewer in November of 2021 and built up the team and we are now expanding and need more interviewers.
