Our founders, Mike Russiello, Bill Lake, and Shoa Appelman, have a history of product innovation in the employment testing industry. In 1998, Mike and Bill left computer services firm EDS (now HP) to start Brainbench, an employment testing company. Brainbench pioneered several head-turning innovations including online computer-adaptive testing, virtual test centers, online skills certification testing, multi-dimensional pre-hire testing, and corporate skills benchmarking.

|
Brainbench grew rapidly. Shoa joined in 2004, and the company was acquired in 2006 by a private equity firm. Post-acquisition, Mike and Bill remained as senior managers for several years.

|
In 2009, the team launched ClicFlic Interactive Videos, Inc. as a simulation technology and services company. The company created interactive, simulation-based eLearning programs, and assessments for large corporations and government agencies.
|
|
It soon became clear there was significant demand for high quality pre-employment assessments. So, after several years of product development, the company changed its name to HR Avatar and re-entered the employment assessment industry in 2015.

Since then, HR Avatar has grown steadily and now serves over 1,000 of customers in more than 50 countries. Equally notable, the founders have continued their tradition of industry-changing innovation, including:
