before we begin
A few good
questions.
Loocy is early. We'll be clear about the pilot, what's available and what your team can expect.
What kind of problem should we bring?
A real question your team recognises: a customer insight, a growth decision or an operational challenge. The pilot conversation helps establish an appropriate scope.
Do we need a polished brief?
No. Bring the context and what you would like to learn. Loocy helps shape the problem and assessment criteria with you.
Does a score make the hiring decision?
No. Scores and feedback support your review. Your team decides who to speak to and makes its own hiring decisions.
What happens after the pilot?
We discuss what you learned and whether there is a useful next step. Confirm scope and commercial terms in the pilot conversation.
