Hiring teams often face challenges in maintaining consistency and collaboration when evaluating candidates. This can lead to misalignment in hiring decisions and a lack of standardized evaluation processes, which may introduce bias and hinder fair assessments. Scorecards help solve these challenges by providing a standardized, customizable tool for evaluating candidates.

• When creating a job, you can attach a scorecard during the job setup process.
• Scorecards can be attached to one or more jobs and toggled on or off for each job.
• Each scorecard shows details such as the creator, the date it was updated, and associated jobs (active or inactive).
• You can edit, delete, or clone existing scorecards at any time.

Create scorecards

1. In Spark Hire, go to Library > Scorecards.

2. Click Create New Scorecard at the top of the page.

   • Enter a name for the scorecard.
   • Add the trait you want to evaluate candidates on, including a name and an optional description to give more context. You can add as many as necessary by clicking ➕ Add trait.

   

3. Click Save. Then, set up the scorecard's permissions:
   • Choose the manager who will be listed as the scorecard's creator. By default, your name will appear.
   • Set visibility options:
     • Everyone – All users can view and use the scorecard.
     • Manager only – Only the selected manager can access the scorecard.
     • Specific people – Specify individual users or groups who can access the scorecard.
4. Click Create.

You can edit, delete, or clone scorecards from your library. You can also set permissions to control who can view and use the scorecards.
