Together, your Topics Coverage Dashboard and Candidate Summaries are powerful tools that allow you to evaluate candidates holistically, ensuring you’re not missing any critical information.

  • Track which skills were covered with the Topics Coverage Dashboard.

  • Summarize critical candidate responses across all interviews with Candidate Summaries for a transparent, unbiased decision-making process.

How to Access:

  1. Select "Candidates" from the Interview dropdown in the side panel.

  2. Search for your candidate.

  3. Toggle to "Interviews" beneath the candidate’s name and job title.

  4. The Topics Coverage dashboard appears to the right of your recordings, showing topic coverage levels (high, medium, low, or no coverage).

  5. Expand "Candidate Summary" to focus on specific topics and see unbiased summaries from all interviews, with easy access to direct evidence.

Topics Coverage Dashboard Highlights

  • Identify Gaps: Quickly see which skills and topics were thoroughly covered, briefly mentioned, or missed entirely, ensuring that interviewers fully evaluate the candidate’s skills and are held accountable.

  • Tailor for Relevance: Start with key topics from the job description, then adjust the list to fit your specific needs. This keeps the focus on what matters most for each role.

  • Dive deeper: Expand topics to see subtopics and identify areas needing further context or improvement in interviewer performance.

Candidate Summaries Highlights

  • Objective Insights: Automatic summaries of a candidate’s key responses offer a comprehensive view of their relevant skills and experience, helping reduce bias in the hiring process.

  • References to Interviews: Check out the source of the summary and share recordings, transcripts, or summaries with collaborators.

  • Quick Resolutions: Resolve conflicting information by reviewing a concise synopsis of key responses, giving you confidence in making informed decisions.

Topics Coverage Dashboard and Candidate Summaries are only available to site admins and recruiters — not all interviewers.
