Interview Scorecard Playbook: Objective Hiring [EN]

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Sound familiar? After an interview, the hiring manager says "I didn't like them" — with zero explanation. Two interviewers evaluate the same candidate in completely opposite ways. You hire the "perfect" candidate based on gut feeling — and three months later they fail probation. Ring a bell?

Without a Scorecard, hiring is a lottery. Decisions are made on emotions, not data. The cost of a bad hire ranges from 50% to 200% of the employee's annual salary. 78% of decisions about a candidate are made within the first 10 minutes of an interview — driven by cognitive biases: halo effect, cloning, gut feeling. And while your team spends weeks debating "like or dislike," the best candidates walk straight to your competitors.

This course is about stopping gut-feel hiring and building a system for objective candidate evaluation. No theory lectures. Step-by-step demonstrations where you create a real Scorecard for a real vacancy in your company — and leave with a ready-to-use tool you can implement this week.

In 3 Practical Demonstration Sessions You'll Complete the Full Scorecard Implementation Cycle:

Step 1. Diagnosis — What a Scorecard is and how it differs from a checklist or feedback form. Cognitive biases in hiring and 5 common mistakes. The cost-of-bad-hire formula. Quick assessment of your current evaluation process with gap identification.
