New Scorecard response types

Introduction

Recruiters and Hiring Managers can now customize how interviewers provide feedback using five flexible response types in scorecards. In addition to the existing star-rating system, you can now choose from radio buttons, dropdowns, or a comment-only format—helping capture both quantitative and qualitative feedback during interviews.

This update applies across global scorecard settings and individual job-stage scorecards. No changes are made to existing feedback, and no data migration is needed.

Choose a Response Type While Setting Up a Scorecard

When creating a scorecard at the Global Settings level or for a specific Job → Stage, you can select one of the following response types for each skill:

• 5-star rating scale (labels customizable)

• 2-option radio buttons (labels customizable)

• Single-select dropdown (labels customizable, up to 6 options)

• Multi-select dropdown (labels customizable, up to 6 options)

• Comment only
  
  

Customize Labels

Each response type allows label customization. You can tailor these labels globally or at the individual Job → Stage → Scorecard → Section → Skill level. Customizations made at the skill level apply only to that specific job-stage combination.

Enable Mandatory Responses (Optional)

You can make feedback mandatory for specific skills by toggling the Mandatory setting. When enabled, interviewers must provide a response for that skill.
