Hiring Machine: Your Step-by-Step Guide to Exemplary Hiring Practices vol-3

How can I get useful interview feedback from my hiring team?

One of the most challenging aspects of the hiring process is obtaining useful feedback from your staff. No matter how many employees you engage in the hiring process, it’s important that you gather the feedback in a consistent and meaningful way.

Use candidate evaluation forms that your team can complete during the review process. When each member of the hiring team contributes to the interview feedback, you elevate the entire process. Each person’s perspective and expertise improves the scoring. Use multiple choice, star ratings or scale questions in the evaluation form. This prevents vague “gut feelings” from entering your process.
