Colare raises $2.5M to test hardware engineers with simulated tasks

San Francisco-based Colare launched with $2.5 million in pre-seed funding from Afore Capital, Garage Capital, and Acadian Ventures. The startup evaluates hardware engineering candidates through simulations of actual job tasks, aiming to reduce the interview time senior engineers spend on screening. Half of its clients are in aerospace and defense.

Would a simulation-based test make you trust a candidate's skills more than a standard interview?
