Great companies are built, not born. At the heart of every successful organization lies a group of visionary leaders, people who inspire, motivate, and steer the ship towards a clear horizon.
Here at Talview, we're fortunate to have Sanjoe Tom Jose, an innovator and entrepreneur who embodies these qualities and more as our CEO.
Early Life and Education
Sanje Tom grew up in the beautiful city of Kochi, India. From a young age, he was encouraged to ask questions and explore new ideas. This nurturing environment sparked his curiosity and ambition, shaping him into the leader he is today.
Sanjoe’s educational journey took him to IIT Bombay, one of India’s top schools. Here, he not only developed his technical skills but also discovered his passion for entrepreneurship.
My experience at IIT Bombay instilled in me the importance of critical thinking, problem-solving, and building solutions that make a real impact. These values continue to drive me at Talview."

Entrepreneurial Journey
Sanjoe's entrepreneurial spirit blossomed early on. His first foray was in the pre-owned automobile marketplace, an experience that provided valuable insights into the world of business.
This entrepreneurial fire never subsided, leading him to co-found Interview Master in 2012. Recognizing the need for a more comprehensive solution, Interview Master later evolved into Talview, a powerful platform catering to all aspects of talent measurement.
Talview's Inception and Growth
In 2017, Talview was born out of a simple observation: traditional hiring software lacked the power to truly assess talent. He wanted to create a platform that made hiring smarter and more efficient. With a unique approach to talent orchestration and intelligence, Talview quickly gained traction.
Thanks to strategic funding rounds and global expansion efforts, the company has grown rapidly under Sanjoe’s leadership.
Talview's Unique Value Proposition
What sets Talview apart? Talview's unique value proposition lies in its comprehensive, AI-powered solutions that streamline hiring and proctoring processes.
The platform automates key tasks like resume screening, interview scheduling, and candidate assessments, leveraging AI insights and mobile-friendly features to help recruiters efficiently identify top candidates.
Talview also offers secure online proctoring with face and voice authentication to maintain assessment integrity, providing flexible options for automated, live, or recorded supervision across educational and corporate settings.
By integrating hiring and proctoring into one unified platform, Talview enhances efficiency, ensures assessment security, and delivers valuable analytics for informed decision-making.
Talview During the Pandemic: Remote Proctoring
The COVID-19 pandemic presented unprecedented challenges for the entire world. Sanjoe's leadership once again shone through as Talview adapted seamlessly to the shift towards remote hiring and testing.
The platform's robust proctoring features saw a surge in demand, enabling organizations to maintain their recruitment processes even during lockdowns. Today, Talview is recognised as a leader in the category, including in the G2 quadrant.
Talview and AI: Alvy
Talview was an early adopter of AI and had adopted generative AI long before ChatGPT became popular. Sanjoe’s vision powered Talview Interview Insights, which won multiple best HR product awards, including the IBM Beacon Award for Outstanding Talent Management Solution and the Partner Category Award at Microsoft’s AI Awards 2.0. Talview’s latest offering also won the prestigious Top HR Product of the Year, Talent Acquisition, at HR Tech Vegas.
In 2024, Talview launched Alvy, the world’s first AI Proctoring Agent, which is revolutionising the way online exams and interviews are proctored today. Alvy has proven to be more accurate and consistent than human proctors, and again, Sanjoe was the brainchild behind it.
Alvy is revolutionising the way online exam proctoring is performed by introducing an AI Agent that is as effective as a human proctor while being more consistent and scalable.
Sanjoe's Leadership and Vision
Sanjoe's leadership extends far beyond business strategy. He has fostered a culture of innovation and collaboration at Talview, where every employee feels valued and empowered to contribute. Under Sanjoe’s leadership, Talview has been at the forefront of driving the use of LLMs and generative AI at work every day across functions.
His commitment to thought leadership is evident in his numerous publications and industry talks. Additionally, under Sanjoe's guidance, Talview has established strategic partnerships with industry giants like Microsoft and SAP, further solidifying its position as a leader in talent technology.
Sanjoe has spoken at various international forums including Talquest, HR Tech Vegas, eAA, Microsoft Industry Days, IBM Business Connect, StartupBridge, SEAAGE, SHRM, PeopleMatters, etc., and has been featured in leading podcasts and magazines. |
Sanjoe has also been honored with a Gold Stevie Award in the Tech Innovator of the Year – Services category, and a Bronze Stevie Award in Entrepreneur of the Year – Business & Professional Services. He has also received the Thought Leadership and HR Excellence (Provider) Award from the HRO Today Association Awards.
Sanjoe's contributions to Talview and the talent acquisition industry as a whole are undeniable. His unwavering vision continues to propel Talview forward, shaping the future of how businesses discover and hire top talent.
As we look ahead, we are filled with excitement for what Sanjoe's leadership holds in store for Talview. Sanjoe's journey is an inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs everywhere. It's a testament to the power of hard work, vision, and the courage to pursue your dreams.
