Stack launches platform for early talent hiring

Olga Korkova has co-founded Stack, a startup focused on early talent hiring, alongside two friends from the HR sector at Berlin-based banking companies. The platform aims to solve the problem of AI agents creating CVs competing against AI agents evaluating them by helping students and graduates identify their strengths and scarce skills to connect with companies. Korkova serves as CTO while maintaining her full-time role at Barfas. The team includes data analysts, software engineers, and marketing support, with many contributors working part-time or in parallel with their primary jobs. The company is currently in the project phase, building the platform to bridge the gap between young talent and employers in a market where traditional CV-based recruitment is becoming less effective due to automated generation and evaluation tools. Korkova views the startup as the logical next step after her CTO role, driven by the desire to build a product that solves a non-trivial problem in the hiring market. She stated that the team wants to solve this knot by building a platform that helps young people find their strengths, find their scarce skills, and then connect them with the right companies.
