New research shows what hiring teams already know: what they post is who you’ll get—and now there’s data to help spot it early.

LOS ANGELES, CA — May 21, 2025 — A new independent research report from 3Sixty Insights is shining a light on Fama Technologies as a critical solution for today’s evolving hiring landscape. The report examines how Fama helps companies uncover job-relevant misconduct signals before day one, bridging the gaps left by resumes, interviews, and traditional background checks.

As hiring grows more complex, so does the challenge of measuring quality of hire. According to LinkedIn’s Future of Recruiting 2025 report, 89% of talent leaders say quality of hire is becoming more important, but just 25% feel confident in how their company measures it. Meanwhile, 61% believe AI will play a key role in solving that problem.

The new research backs this up, showing how Fama’s AI-powered platform gives teams a clearer view into candidate fit, risk, and alignment before an offer is made.

“It’s no secret that 50% of today’s workforce is Gen-Z and Millennial,” said Ben Mones, CEO of Fama. “Employers are evolving their screening strategy to reflect the fact that the majority of their people are digital natives, who have lived their lives online as much as offline. Evaluating quality of hire in 2025 means tapping every resource at your disposal.”

The report explores how leading organizations are using Fama to bring data and structure to what has historically been a vague metric: quality of hire. By analyzing a person’s online footprint for misconduct aligned with an employer's code of conduct, Fama gives talent teams an additional layer of insight, helping them make more confident decisions. Fama helps spot the risk before it becomes a headline, a lawsuit, or a costly mistake.

“What stood out in this research is how Fama is addressing a very real challenge in today’s hiring environment: understanding who a candidate really is beyond what’s on paper. Talent teams are under pressure to make faster, better decisions with limited insight. Behavioral Intelligence gives them another layer of context, backed by data, to help them do that with more confidence and less guesswork,” Nicholas Biron, CEO, of 3Sixty Insights
