Candidate Scorecard

Q: How do I know the Candidate Scorecard output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Every rating is tied to specific evidence from the interview, not impressions; Competencies not actually assessed are marked "Not assessed", not guessed; Strengths and risks are concrete and balanced — not a one-sided narrative; The recommendation states a confidence level and what would change it.

What to give it

▸The role & competencies — what's being assessed (or use the role's interview kit).

▸Interview notes — what the candidate said/did, ideally with examples.

▸The interview scope — which round/competencies this interviewer covered.

▸Scale — the rating scale to use (e.g. 1–4: strong no / no / yes / strong yes).

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓Every rating is tied to specific evidence from the interview, not impressions

✓Competencies not actually assessed are marked "Not assessed", not guessed

✓Strengths and risks are concrete and balanced — not a one-sided narrative

✓The recommendation states a confidence level and what would change it

✓Open questions hand the next interviewer something specific to probe

✓No invented quotes/claims; bias-prone "culture fit" is replaced with job-related evidence

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not rate on overall vibe — anchor each score to what the candidate actually demonstrated

Do not invent or embellish what they said to justify a rating

Do not score competencies you didn't test — flag them for the next round

Do not hide low confidence behind a confident-sounding verdict — say how sure you are

Do not lean on "culture fit" as a reason — name the specific, job-related concern
