8vance and Impierce: Pioneering the Future of Recruitment with eIDAS-Compliant Digital Identity Integration

8vance has taken a significant step forward in recruitment and talent development by integrating with Impierce. This integration allows users to retrieve their verified skills and diplomas directly from a Digital Identity Wallet, such as the EUDI Wallet via eIDAS, for job applications. This is a breakthrough at a time when fake profiles and unverifiable resumes are increasingly problematic.

Trust in Applications and Careers

By leveraging Impierce’s technology, 8vance can confidently verify:

• The individual’s existence—thanks to the certified digital identity in the wallet.
• The authenticity of credentials—diplomas, certificates, and skills are cryptographically validated and tamper-proof.

This offers substantial benefits for both employers and applicants. Employers can trust the accuracy of submitted skills and diplomas, while candidates can apply directly with their validated credentials without additional proof.

Skills Translated into Job and Training Opportunities

8vance goes a step further: the micro-credentials retrieved from the digital wallet are automatically translated into relevant skills. This provides users with immediate insight into their job market opportunities and helps them discover which training programs are needed to enhance their profiles. This aligns seamlessly with the vision of lifelong learning and skills-based matching.

Alignment with European Initiatives

This development aligns with the European project surrounding the eIDAS regulation, which provides a framework for electronic identification and trust services within the EU. More information is available on the European Commission’s website.

The Future of Job Applications and Talent Development

In an era where AI and digitalization are profoundly transforming recruitment and HR, this step by 8vance and Impierce marks a significant milestone. Automated verification of skills and diplomas makes the application process fairer, more efficient, and more reliable. This not only helps companies find the right talent but also enables professionals to capitalize on the best opportunities based on their actual qualifications.
