FAQ

Interview scorecards: common questions

What is an interview scorecard?

A simple sheet that rates each candidate on the same criteria, scored right after the interview while it's fresh. It replaces a vague gut feeling with a number you can compare across candidates.

Why use a scorecard instead of going with your gut?

Structured, scored interviews predict job performance about twice as well as unstructured ones. Scoring forces you to judge every candidate on the same yardstick instead of on whoever you spoke to most recently.

What should an interview scorecard measure?

Focus on the traits that predict success: work ethic, honesty, teamwork, problem-solving, and culture fit. Most hires fail on character rather than skill, so weight your scorecard toward character.

Is this interview scorecard free?

Yes. Score candidates, compare them side by side, and export your results, all free and with no signup.
