Ambler’s Phenom announced that it is expanding its hiring technology platform with the acquisition of Plum, a firm known for verifying authenticity in an age of AI.
Plum is known for its psychometric-based assessments that measure behavioral traits and “durable skills” like adaptability and judgment. The move follows Phenom’s earlier acquisition of Be Applied and continues its push to build a comprehensive hiring platform.
Phenom develops AI-powered software that employers use to evaluate and hire talent, helping streamline the hiring process. Its platform is designed to improve efficiency while delivering more personalized experiences for both recruiters and job seekers.
The addition of Plum allows Phenom to go beyond traditional resume screening by helping organizations evaluate how candidates are likely to perform in real-world roles. Plum’s technology maps behavioral profiles against thousands of job types, offering a more predictive approach to hiring decisions.
The acquisition comes at a time when companies are facing increased pressure to identify qualified candidates amid the rise of AI-generated resumes and applications. By integrating Plum’s assessment tools into its platform, Phenom aims to give employers a more reliable way to measure both skills and potential at scale.
The deal highlights the continued growth of Montco’s tech sector, with Phenom positioning itself as a key player in the evolving world of workforce technology.
