Scorecards are internal evaluation tools used to assess candidates during or after various hiring stages. Suitable for evaluating candidates at any pipeline stage, they are based on existing, customisable templates. They include rating criteria and space for notes. This helps your team compare candidates objectively and efficiently, while avoiding unstructured feedback.

Choose from existing scorecard templates, or create your own in Settings → Scorecards.

Templates define the structure of your scorecards. You can reuse them across several jobs and hiring processes. Easily create or manage existing templates in Settings → Scorecards.

To create or edit a scorecard template:

Changes made to templates only apply to scorecards created after the update. Existing scorecards remain unchanged.

All published scorecards are visible in the candidate's profile. You can add a scorecard to any candidate with an active application, directly from their profile.

Scorecards save automatically as you work. Once published, only the person who created the scorecard can edit or delete it.

At the top of the scorecard, you'll find the list of questions assigned to the template. Each question includes an Answer and notes input field. You can answer questions in free text, use rich text formatting options, add questions by clicking Add a question, and remove a question by clicking the delete icon.

Below the questions, you'll find a list of attributes (e.g. Communication skills, Organisational fit, Reliability). Each attribute can be rated using a 5-star system. You can add other attributes by clicking Add an attribute.

At the bottom of the scorecard, choose from 4 overall ratings: Definitely no, No, Yes, Definitely yes. You must also provide a summary in the General conclusions, pros and cons field.

Only the team member who created a scorecard can edit or delete it. Other users have read-only access.

All published scorecards for a candidate are shown in their Scorecards tab. If several team members publish feedback, JOIN displays each individual scorecard with the name of the person who wrote it, and an aggregated average per attribute.

Only published scorecards appear in the candidate profile view. Drafts remain private to their creator until published.
