Post-interview feedback

Collect evidence while the interview is fresh.

Assigned reviewers receive the relevant scorecard after the interview. Strong and insufficient ratings require evidence, with one reminder after 24 hours when feedback is still missing.

Hard-requirement workflow

Keep automatic action behind objective evidence.

Only an eligible, confirmed hard-requirement miss can start the workflow. Hire records the reason, marks the candidate not suitable, and holds the rejection email for a 24-hour review window.

Mandatory criterionWork eligibility
Confirmed as not met

The application answer does not meet the vacancy's configured requirement.

AI cannot start this workflow. Missing evidence and subjective feedback cannot reject a candidate.

What is an interview scorecard?

An interview scorecard is a consistent set of role-specific criteria used after interviews. Reviewers record a rating and the evidence behind it, making feedback easier to compare.

Can we reuse scorecards across vacancies?

Yes. Admins and recruiters can create company-wide or department scorecard templates. A vacancy receives its own copy, so later template edits do not change an active hiring decision.

What happens when reviewers disagree?

Hire flags conflicting recommendations in the debrief. The hiring team compares the underlying evidence and acknowledges the disagreement before finalising the decision.

Can a recruiter override a criterion?

Yes. An authorised recruiter can replace a criterion result with a required written reason. Hire keeps the original result, the override, and the recalculated ranking visible in the record.

Can a scorecard automatically reject a candidate?

Only an objective mandatory criterion that is explicitly eligible for automatic rejection can start the workflow. Subjective feedback, missing evidence, and AI recommendations cannot reject a candidate. The email waits 24 hours so the team can review or reverse the decision.
