Recruiting tools Zoom transcriptions: how to transcribe calls and upgrade your interview process. Zoom can transcribe every interview you record to the cloud on a paid plan. Your interview process improves when that transcript becomes the record and interviewers write each scorecard from it the same day.
Interviews Interview transcripts: A how-to guide for recruiters. An interview transcript is worth most after the call. Recruiters get more from one by reading it for a set job, from rereading a scorecard’s quotes before the debrief to coaching the interviewer who asked the questions.
Recruiting 101 Interview fatigue is hurting your hiring: how to fix it for recruiters and candidates. Interviewers and candidates tire in the same loop for different reasons, so one fix rarely helps both. Count each interviewer’s weekly load and each candidate’s total hours before you cut a round, then fix what those counts show.
How-To Exit interviews: questions, process, and best practices for HR leaders. Judge an exit interview by whether it can sit beside the last ten. This guide gives you seven steps, the questions to ask every leaver, and four checks that show whether your departures add up to a pattern you can act on.
Recruiting 101 Personality hire: when 'culture fit' becomes a signal you can defend. Keep personality in the hiring decision and take the bare word “fit” off the scorecard. A culture fit call holds up once the note names the behavior the role needs and the moment the candidate showed it.
How-To How talent teams turn conversations into a competitive advantage with Metaview. In a contested hire, your next conversation with a candidate should already know what they told you in the last one. Give every recorded call a named reader before the next call, and use Metaview for the record that reader opens.
Recruiting process Interview scorecards: make faster, fairer, data-driven hiring decisions. A hiring decision gets quicker when the interview scorecard is built for the debrief that reads it. Give every competency that decides the hire an owner in the loop, and have each interviewer write the evidence and lock the card before anyone compares notes.
How-To How to structure interview scorecards that set everyone up for success. An interview scorecard has one author and several readers. Give each of the three people who act on the card a section of their own, and the candidate stops being asked the same question twice.
Recruiting tools 7 top interview quality tools for better hiring decisions. Most hiring teams don't know if their interviews are any good. They know how many they ran last quarter. They know how long each one took. They don&
Recruiting tools Pre-employment assessment tools: what they do, why they matter and how to choose. Choose a pre-employment assessment by the question your interviews for the role can’t answer, and agree with the hiring manager what a result will change before any candidate gives up an evening to the test.
Recruiting 101 Contrast bias: when the queue replaces the rubric. When the last candidate becomes the bar, each rating after it measures one person against another. Keep every score about a single candidate, and change the bar on purpose when someone shows it was set wrong.
Interviews Interview notetaking: tips, tools, and templates for interviewers. Write interview notes as an index to the conversation, with the minute an answer landed and the candidate’s own words beside it, and choose your tools by where those notes have to end up.
Interviews Interview summary: best practices and templates for evidence-led hiring decisions. An interview summary is ready to send when the hiring manager can decide the next step from it without opening the recording. Lead with your recommendation and back each rating with the moment that set it. The two templates here keep that order.
Interviews Interviewer bias: how to reduce subjectivity in interviews at scale. When dozens of interviewers read one scorecard differently, a candidate’s result depends on who was on their loop. Calibrate the bench on a recorded interview, then keep checking where its ratings drift apart.
Recruiting process Interview rubrics: how to standardize and supercharge your hiring process. Most rubrics settle the competencies and leave the levels to adjectives, so one interviewer’s 3 is another’s 4. Write each level from answers candidates have given, starting with the 3, and the number on a scorecard starts to mean one thing.
How-To Recording interviews: why, how, and tips to do it right. A recording settles what a candidate said, as long as your team has decided the rules first. Write down what candidates hear before the call and what happens to the file after it, then record every interview a candidate agrees to.
Recruiting 101 Interview feedback explained: how to give recruitment feedback that helps. Interview feedback helps when every line starts from something the candidate said and ties to a line of your rubric. These five habits keep every line tied to the candidate’s words across a whole panel, and get a short version to the candidate within 48 hours.
How-To The recruiter's guide to assessing candidate responses. Judge each answer in a recruiter screen against what its question was there to settle. Keep the candidate’s words, and ask another question before a thin answer counts against them, so the hiring manager gets a note they can check.
