Agree on the criteria
Before reviewing applications, decide which skills and experiences matter for the role. Use the same criteria throughout the process and document the evidence behind each decision.
Coordinate the interviews
Give each interviewer a clear focus. Share practical information with candidates in advance, including timing, format and any preparation required. Leave time for candidates to ask their own questions.
Communicate next steps
Keep candidates informed when schedules change. After a decision, close the loop promptly and review what the team learned. A consistent process supports better decisions and a clearer candidate experience.
