SkipTheFilter — Degree-Free Supply Chain Job Board & Credential Kit
Mid-career supply chain and procurement professionals with 5+ years of hands-on experience get auto-screened out by ATS and HR filters set to require a bachelor's degree, even when hiring managers would gladly interview them. They waste time on applications that never reach a human and feel invisible despite commanding $80k-$120k salaries. There is no dedicated channel that connects these verified-experience candidates directly to employers who have explicitly removed degree requirements or who hire on competency evidence alone.
- Differentiator
- Three-part moat: (1) Curated job board where every listing is manually verified as degree-optional or skills-first — candidates trust the signal immediately; (2) A downloadable Competency Evidence Kit — a structured template pack that helps candidates translate experience into STAR-format accomplishment statements, skills matrices, and a one-page credential summary that mimics the clarity of a resume with a degree, giving them something concrete to send; (3) Employer side charges per post and gets a pre-filtered pool of vetted experienced candidates, which is a real value prop for lean HR teams at mid-size manufacturers who struggle to fill ops roles. The combination of trusted job discovery plus a tangible artifact to overcome the screening anxiety is the hook. No competitor is serving this specific intersection — general skills-first boards like Otta or Pallet are broad; this is laser-focused on supply chain and procurement identity.
- TAM
- Conservative reachable niche: ~50,000 active job-seekers in US supply chain without degrees at any given time. At $19/month subscription or a one-time $49 credential kit, realistic ARR of $150k-$400k from a small fraction of that pool plus employer job post fees ($199-$499 per post from SME manufacturers, 3PLs, distributors who already hire on experience). Not venture scale, but plausible $5k-$15k MRR within 12-18 months as a solo operator asset.
