Evaluation Management

Evaluation Management allows your organization to electronically capture, review, and analyze an evaluator's input obtained during a candidate interview.

The new HTML-based Recruiting product leverages the same Evaluation Management functionality and user interface as found in the Legacy Recruiting product.

Different people in your organization are involved in the evaluation process. Here's an overview of how the process works:

• The content manager creates, edits, and manages categories to organize evaluation questions, evaluation skills, and evaluation questionnaires.

• The content manager creates, edits, and manages evaluation questions and evaluation skills used in evaluation questionnaires.

• The content manager creates evaluation questionnaires.

• Recruiters add evaluation questionnaires to requisitions.

• Recruiters send evaluation feedback requests to evaluators to ask them to evaluate candidates using evaluation questionnaires.

• Evaluators provide feedback on candidates they interview using the evaluation questionnaires.

• Recruiters view evaluation questionnaires completed by evaluators.

Create an Evaluation Questionnaire

Evaluation questionnaires contain evaluation questions and evaluation skills used to capture an evaluator’s info during a candidate interview. If you're a content manager, you can create evaluation questionnaires. Before you do, look at the existing questionnaires in the Evaluation Questionnaires library. Use quick filters to refine the list by questionnaire (enter one or multiple words), status, and category. If you don’t see the questionnaire you’re looking for, create a new one.

1. In the Library menu, select Evaluation Questionnaires.

2. Click Create.

3. Complete the information in the Properties tab. Enter the name of the questionnaire, a short label, and instructions on how to complete the questionnaire. Indicate if you want to display the Questions tab, Skill Ratings tab, and the Overall Recommendation in the questionnaire. If you decide to include the recommendation, you can select the format of the Recommendation response and indicate if the recommendation is mandatory.

4. Go to the Questions tab to add questions to the questionnaire. You can indicate which questions as required. Evaluators will have to answer the question when completing the evaluation questionnaire. You can also add weight values to question answers. You can also remove questions, reorder questions, and hide or show question details.

5. Go to the Skill Ratings tab to add skills to the questionnaire. Click Select Rating Scale to add a rating scale to apply to the questionnaire. Rating scales are created by your administrator. Once the rating scale is selected, you can define which skills are required when evaluators complete questionnaires. You can add, remove, and reorder skills (which were defined in the Evaluation Skills library). When skills have been added, you select the desired skill level for each skill.
