Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
6.0 s · 934 KiBAbout 934 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.3 s · 1.0 MB28 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.0 MB).
Render-blocking requests
3.8 s31 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.8 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, nitrocdn.com and Facebook and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
760 ms · 85 KiBAbout 85 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 760 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 423 ms
423 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 423 ms of main-thread work and 671 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 2.9 s
A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
nitrocdn.com adds 178 ms
178 msnitrocdn.com costs a phone 178 ms of main-thread work and 408 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Legacy JavaScript
250 ms · 86 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 86 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 144 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.3 MB in 180 requests
7.3 MBYour homepage downloads 7.3 MB in 180 requests on a phone: media 4.8 MB (1), scripts 2.3 MB (64) and stylesheets 113 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit
2.07 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.07 g of CO₂e: 248.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
84 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 84 pages on predictivehire.com and 14 external pages.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,083 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
