Structured evaluation

Fairer decisions start with the same criteria for everyone.

Agree what good looks like before the first interview. Fibisoft Recruit keeps every reviewer on the same scorecard and records every step.

The problem

Unstructured interviews lead to gut-feeling hires.

  • Different questions, different answers

    When each interviewer improvises, candidates cannot be compared fairly.

  • The loudest opinion wins

    Without written scores, the most senior voice in the room decides.

  • Nothing to learn from

    When a hire does not work out, there is no record to look back on.

What structured evaluation looks like

Weighted scorecards on each stage

Attach a scorecard to each stage and set the weight of every criterion. Each reviewer gives one score and a comment.

Common questions

What is structured evaluation?

Assessing every candidate for a job on the same criteria, with the same weights, and recording the result. Decisions become easier to compare and explain.

Can scorecards differ between stages?

Yes. Each scorecard is attached to a stage, so a first screen and a final interview can use different criteria.

Where do we see past decisions?

Every stage move is logged, and the Audit Log keeps who did what and when.

How does Match Score fit in?
