"If a person's relevant attributes could be captured one time and used for every company they apply to, that would save a TON of people's time."

I haven't hired anyone in a while, but if I were hiring today, the kind of people I'd be looking for are smart, creative and inquisitive, and can learn new stuff quickly. How do you create an automated system that can test for these qualities?
