Candidate Evaluation Overview

The Candidate Evaluation module gives your hiring team a structured, consistent way to assess candidates throughout the hiring process. Instead of scattered notes or verbal feedback, everything lives in one place — scored, organized, and visible to the right people.

This update was built directly from your feedback, and it brings a fully revamped experience that covers everything from building evaluation templates to reading unified scores across your entire hiring team.

The evaluation module lives in two places inside Recruitera:

1. Templates → Evaluation Forms This is where you build and manage your evaluation templates — the forms your team will use to assess candidates.

From your dashboard, go to Settings, then in the left sidebar, go to Templates and click on Evaluation Forms.

2. Inside the Candidate Profile → Evaluation Tab This is where evaluations actually happen — per candidate, per job.

Open any candidate profile and click on the Evaluation tab at the top.

Once you're inside a candidate's Evaluation tab, you'll find three views:

Summary — Shows the candidate's overall average evaluation score, calculated automatically across all evaluators and all submitted forms.

Completed — A log of all evaluation forms that have been filled and submitted for this candidate, including the score, stage, date, and evaluator.

Requested — Evaluations that have been assigned to team members but not yet submitted, with the deadline and who requested them.

Here's a quick map of everything the module covers:
