Write a scorecard

A scorecard is each interviewer's written view of a candidate: answers to the same questions for everyone, and a recommendation. The candidate's page shows every card and an average score out of 5.

Before you start

• You must be an interviewer on one of the candidate's interviews, or work the opening (a hiring manager or someone with Create openings, move candidates and hire).

Steps

1. Open the candidate: from the link in your notice, from Today, or from Recruitment → Openings.
2. Under Scorecards, select Write my scorecard.
3. In For, pick the interview. People who work the opening without interviewing can pick General impression.
4. Answer the questions. A rating goes from 1 to 5.
5. Pick a Recommendation: Strong yes, Yes, No or Strong no.
6. Select Save. The message Your scorecard is saved. appears.

Set the questions new openings start with

1. Open Recruitment → Recruitment settings and open Scorecard new openings start with.
2. Change a Question, tick Required, or tick Remove.
3. To add one, type it in New question, pick the Answer (Rating 1 to 5, Short text, Long text, Number, Choice or Tick box), and for a choice type the Choices, separated by commas.
4. Select Save.

Good to know

• The default questions are Skills, Experience, Communication, Fit with the team and Comments.
• Each opening keeps its own copy of the questions, taken from the settings when the opening is created.
• One card per interviewer per interview. Writing again for the same interview replaces your card.
• Who reads the cards. People who work the opening read every card. An interviewer reads their own.
• The average score is the mean of the ratings on every card, shown to one decimal.
• Keep questions about the work. The settings page reminds you not to ask for a photo, age, religion or other personal traits.
• A missing scorecard shows on the interviewer's Today as Write your scorecard.
• Next: Send an offer letter.
