ADAGlobal Talent Connect | Interview-ready graduates for global employers

Interview-ready African graduates, screened before you meet them.

We verify each graduate, assess their skills, and run a first interview. You receive a scorecard and a video intro for every candidate, then we help you schedule and run your own interviews.

An initiative of ADA Global Academy, accredited by the American Council of Training and Development (ACTD), USA. Graduates never pay to be placed. Employers pay only when a hire is made.

From CV upload to signed offer

Every candidate follows the same six stages, so every employer sees comparable, trustworthy results.

  1. Upload and verify

    Graduates create a profile and upload a CV. We check identity, degree, NYSC status where relevant, and references.

    Done by graduate and our team
  2. Skills test

    A short, role-specific test filters the pool before any interviewer spends time on a candidate.

    Done by graduate
  3. Screening interview

    A 20 to 30 minute recorded interview (with consent) covering communication, technical basics, availability and remote readiness.

    Done by our interviewers
  4. Shortlist

    You receive 3 to 5 profiles, each with a scorecard, a video intro and a one-page summary.

    Sent to employer
  5. Employer interviews

    We schedule across time zones, supply a question kit and rubric, and collect feedback within 48 hours.

    Facilitated by us
  6. Offer and onboarding

    We support contracting, onboarding and payment set-up. The fee is invoiced only once a hire is made.

Questions

Who is behind ADAGlobal Talent Connect?

It is an initiative of ADA Global Academy, a data science training institution accredited by the American Council of Training and Development (ACTD), USA, with learners and alumni in more than 15 countries.

Do graduates pay anything?

No. Placement, screening, preparation and introductions are free for graduates. Employers pay for the service.

How do you verify candidates?

We check identity, degree certificates and references, and we confirm skills with a test and a live interview before a profile receives the verified badge.

Who makes the hiring decision?

The employer. We assess and facilitate, and on the full-service tier we give a written recommendation. The employment relationship is between you and the hire.

What happens to candidate data?

CVs and recordings are stored securely, shared only with employers the candidate is matched with, kept for a limited period, and deleted on request, in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act and GDPR.

Can I hire for relocation as well as remote work?

We start with remote roles because they are faster and simpler to set up. Relocation support is planned with visa and immigration partners.

How do I know an employer is genuine?

We verify every employer before they can see candidate profiles, and we never ask graduates to send money to anyone.
