CANDIDATE REVIEW SUPPORT · Workflow idea

Give every application a careful review—and keep the decision human.

Help a recruiting team organize application materials, prepare job-related summaries, and collect interview feedback in one review process. Tell candidates when automated assistance is used, protect their personal information, provide a reasonable alternative where needed, and leave screening, advancement, and hiring decisions to qualified people.

A useful direction.

An application submitted for an open role by a candidate

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps recruiting teams keep applications and interview feedback organized without treating a score or summary as a hiring decision.

  1. Confirm the role and candidate’s consent

    Check that application materials belong to the selected role and that candidates have received clear information about how their data and any interview recording will be used.

  2. Organize job-related evidence

    Summarize only information relevant to the published role criteria and keep each point traceable to the candidate’s own materials.

  3. Prepare interview questions and criteria

    Use consistent, role-related questions and a documented rubric; avoid inferring protected or unrelated personal characteristics.

  4. Review interview feedback with a recruiter

    Have a qualified person assess the original responses and notes, consider accommodations, and correct omissions or unfair conclusions.

  5. Approve candidate decisions and messages

    Require a recruiter to make advancement decisions and approve the exact recipient and wording of every candidate email before sending.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

Keep in mind

Resumes, voice recordings, contact details, and interview responses are sensitive personal information. Limit collection and access, explain any automated assessment and recording, offer an appropriate human-led alternative, check for bias and accessibility concerns, and require qualified recruiters to review original evidence before deciding whom to advance or hire. Any candidate email must be checked and approved by a recruiter before it is sent.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define job-related criteria and owners

Set clear requirements for each role and identify the recruiters responsible for reviewing evidence and making decisions.

Tell candidates how information is used

Explain assessments, interviews, recordings, retention, and candidate choices before collecting or using personal information.

Restrict candidate data access and retention

Limit files and interview material to the hiring team, set a deletion schedule, and avoid collecting information not needed for the role.

Review fairness, accessibility, and email approvals

Check assessment criteria for bias, provide an appropriate alternative interview path, and require recruiter approval for each candidate email.
