Vetano Founder. Hire With Proof.

About

Founder & CEO of Vetano, a proof-based hiring platform helping employers see real skills before the interview. Before Vetano, I worked across AWS, Microsoft, cloud, security, identity, and enterprise architecture. After being laid off from big tech, I started thinking about how broken resume-first hiring had become. A resume can say a lot, but it still does not prove how someone communicates, works, moves, or performs the skill. That idea became Vetano: a mobile hiring and gig platform where talent can use ID-verified intro videos and proof-of-skill videos to show what they can actually do. Ex-AWS. Army veteran. 9 AWS certs in 11 months. Former Microsoft Certified Trainer. 125+ public speaking engagements.

Are resumes becoming less useful now that AI can write them?

I m launching Vetano soon, and this is the question that pushed me to build it:

If AI can help anyone write a polished resume, how should employers know who can actually do the work?

Vetano - Real skills. Real proof. Faster hires.

Vetano is a mobile hiring and gig platform where talent proves skill through ID-verified video profiles, not just resumes. Employers can post jobs, share a Vetano link anywhere they already recruit, and review intro videos plus proof-of-skill videos before deciding who to interview. Built for restaurants, trades, retail, automotive, haircare, hospitality, and other hands-on industries, Vetano helps employers screen faster, reduce hiring guesswork, and see real ability before the interview.
