How HYPR Scaled Hiring with AI Interviews - While Staying Accurate, Compliant, and Candidate-Friendly with lizzyAI

HYPR is one of the most recognized names in modern identity security, trusted by enterprises worldwide to protect access, reduce risk, and support passwordless authentication & identity verification at scale. With rapid global growth across the US and Europe, HYPR needed to hire across multiple functions at once - without compromising on hiring quality, candidate experience, or legal compliance.

This case study shows how HYPR used AI Interviews with lizzyAI to scale hiring across departments, improve screening accuracy, and maintain strong compliance standards across US and EU regulations.

Company Overview: HYPR

HYPR is a fast-growing cybersecurity company operating at the center of one of the most critical areas in enterprise tech: identity and access management.

As organizations face increasing pressure from phishing, credential theft, and account takeovers, HYPR helps enterprises strengthen authentication and identity verification to protect their workforce and customers.

With a rapidly expanding customer base and growing global footprint, HYPR has become a key player in the security ecosystem - supporting large-scale deployments and mission-critical environments where trust and reliability matter every day.

‍

As HYPR scaled, one thing became clear:

To grow the business, they needed to scale hiring just as aggressively.

‍

The Hiring Challenge: Hypergrowth Across Multiple Teams and Regions

HYPR was hiring across multiple departments at the same time - not just in one function, but across the full business.

‍

They needed to fill roles including:

• SDRs and Sales Development teams
  
• Account Executives and Sales roles
  
• Marketing roles across demand gen, content, and growth
  
• Operations roles across business ops and customer ops
  
• Technology roles across engineering and product functions
  
  

Like many high-growth companies, HYPR was dealing with increasing hiring volume and a competitive talent market.

‍

They received large numbers of applications across roles - and the team needed a way to quickly identify the strongest candidates without burning out recruiters or slowing down hiring managers.

‍

A Unique Constraint: Accuracy and Compliance Are Non-Negotiable in Security Hiring

For HYPR, hiring is not only about filling roles quickly.

Because they operate in security, they needed a hiring process that was:

• Accurate and consistent
  
• Structured and auditable
  
• Built to support compliance expectations
  
• Responsible across both US and EU hiring requirements
  
  

Security companies are held to a higher standard - and HYPR’s hiring team knew that scaling hiring could not come at the cost of rigor.

‍

That created a tough balance:

Move fast, but stay precise.
Scale globally, but stay compliant.

‍

The Solution: AI Interviews with lizzyAI Across All Hiring Functions

HYPR implemented lizzyAI to scale early-stage candidate screening using AI Interviews.

‍

Instead of relying only on resumes and manual recruiter screens, lizzyAI helped HYPR standardize evaluation across roles while keeping the process candidate-friendly and compliant.

‍

lizzyAI enabled HYPR to:

‍

Screen candidates more consistently across roles

Whether HYPR was hiring in sales, marketing, operations, or technology, lizzyAI provided a structured interview approach that improved consistency across departments.

‍

Assess skills and real-world job readiness earlier

AI Interviews helped HYPR evaluate what mattered most for each role:

• Communication, clarity, and objection handling for SDRs
  
• Business acumen and customer alignment for sales roles
  
• Ownership and execution mindset for ops roles
  
• Technical depth and structured problem solving for technology roles
  
  

Maintain accuracy and compliance across US and EU hiring

Because HYPR operates across regions and legal environments, lizzyAI supported a hiring process that aligned with compliance expectations and helped reduce risk in early-stage screening. This was especially important for a company where trust, documentation, and responsible processes are part of the culture.

‍

The Surprise Outcome: Candidates Loved the Interview Experience

Like many leaders, HYPR’s Founder and President Roman Kadinsky initially expected candidates to be skeptical about AI Interviews.

Instead, the reaction was the opposite.

‍

Roman shared:

"I honestly expected candidates to push back on the idea of an AI interview. But the response surprised me - candidates actually enjoyed the experience. It felt structured, fair, and more human than I expected. It became a real advantage in how we present HYPR as an employer."

‍

For HYPR, that was a breakthrough.

‍

Not only did AI Interviews help them scale hiring internally - it also helped strengthen the candidate experience externally.

‍

The Outcome: Faster Hiring, Better Signal, More Confidence Across Teams

With lizzyAI in place, HYPR’s recruiting team and hiring managers gained a clearer, faster way to identify top candidates.

‍

Less noise, more signal

Instead of getting buried in high application volume, teams could focus on the candidates who showed real capability and role fit early in the process.

‍

Stronger evaluation across soft skills and role fit

Across departments, HYPR could assess the skills that drive performance:

• Communication and collaboration
  
• Ownership and accountability
  
• Problem solving and structured thinking
  
• Customer mindset and execution speed
  
  

More confidence for hiring managers

Hiring managers received better-prepared candidates and clearer insights earlier - reducing wasted interviews and speeding up decision-making.

‍

Scalable hiring without sacrificing rigor

Most importantly, HYPR scaled hiring while maintaining the standards expected of a global security company: accuracy, consistency, and compliance.

‍

Why This Matters: AI Interviews Are Becoming the New Standard in High-Growth Hiring

When companies grow quickly, the hiring funnel breaks first.

Application volume rises, recruiters get overloaded, and the hiring process becomes inconsistent across teams.

‍

HYPR’s success shows how AI Interviews can help fast-growing companies scale hiring without sacrificing quality.

Especially for companies in regulated or high-trust industries like security, the value is even higher:

• More structured screening
  
• Stronger documentation and consistency
  
• Better hiring decisions under pressure
  
• A candidate experience that feels fair and modern
