What are Success Signals?


Success Signals are verified patterns in a person’s background, behavior, and impact that reveal not only who can do the job, but who is most likely to thrive in your environment.

Created by recruiters, search professionals, and people leaders, Success Signals turn years of expertise into labeled indicators of performance, potential, and fit. Each signal takes performance evidence and combines it with resume data, converting it into contextual intelligence your agents use to help you make better talent decisions.

Resumes are statements. Success requires context.

Why success isn’t one-size-fits-all

Generic AI can’t hire for your culture, challenges, or stage of growth. What drives success in one company may fall flat in another. A startup CMO isn’t an enterprise CMO. A standout engineer at Google may not thrive at Series A.

Findem captures these differences by codifying the success DNA unique to your organization, function, and team. Your agents use these custom-labeled Success Signals to make decisions that reflect your context — not someone else’s.

How agents use that context

Findem Agents operate with the same understanding your best recruiters and leaders rely on. With Success Signals guiding every action, they can:
  • Recognize how military leadership translates into operational success
  • Distinguish a Series B head of marketing from an enterprise CMO
  • Identify engineers who excel at 0→1 work versus those who thrive at scale
Each signal reflects real expertise, meaning you can make decisions based on insight rather than guesswork.

What agents deliver

Success Signals give you measurable, explainable intelligence about talent. They help you achieve outcomes that matter: faster hiring, stronger matches, and more confident decisions across the talent lifecycle.
