Frequently asked questionsThe essentials on verification, payments, and privacy — in one line.
How does Aval verify candidates?+
Every candidate goes through structured interviews with real companies registered on the platform. The feedback is auditable, tied to a verified user, and becomes part of the profile's public history. We don't rely on self-assessment.
What is the Portable Score?+
It's a score from 0 to 100 generated from performance, consistency, the quality of feedback received, and engagement. The score can be shared publicly via your Passport — even outside of hiring processes — as proof of reputation.
How do I use my Signal Tokens?+
Signal Tokens earned from reviewed interviews are traded for partner courses in the Aval catalog — from technical training to certifications. Every course you redeem strengthens your profile and can go into your Passport.
Do companies pay to use the platform?+
Companies deposit an escrow guarantee per interview before starting each process. If the structured feedback isn't sent within 7 business days, the amount is automatically released to the candidate. There's no mandatory monthly subscription in the MVP.
How do I keep my data private?+
Your public Passport only shows the information you authorize. Sensitive fields (full name, tax ID, phone) never appear on public pages. You can revoke profile publication at any time in /candidate/settings.
