Better hiring decisions

Structured data helps you identify patterns and make evidence-based decisions about who to hire.

The case for structured screening

Every hiring decision involves evaluating soft skills, culture fit, and potential—things that are notoriously hard to measure. Without structure, different interviewers assess different things, using different standards. The result? Inconsistent evaluations and decisions based more on "gut feel" than evidence.

Questionnaires solve this by giving everyone a common framework. Application questions help candidates self-select—if they can't answer basic requirements, they probably aren't the right fit. Internal scoring forms ensure your team evaluates candidates on the same dimensions, making it possible to compare apples to apples.

Application questions: Filter before you invest time

The best screening questions are designed to surface deal-breakers early. Does the candidate have the required certification? Are they willing to relocate? Do they have experience with your specific tech stack? By asking these upfront, you avoid scheduling interviews with candidates who were never going to work out.

Open-ended questions like "Why do you want to work here?" and "Describe your biggest professional achievement" help you gauge communication skills and motivation before the first call. Candidates who put in effort here tend to be more serious about the opportunity.

Internal evaluations: Standardize your team's feedback

After each interview, your team fills out the same evaluation form. Rate the candidate 1-5 on technical skills, communication, culture fit, and potential. Add notes about specific examples. Give an overall recommendation: advance, maybe, or reject.

This structured feedback makes debrief meetings more productive. Instead of vague impressions, you have specific scores and observations to discuss. Over time, you can even analyze which evaluation criteria best predict successful hires.

Example questions for different roles

Engineering

  • Years of experience with [specific language/framework]?
  • Describe a complex technical problem you solved
  • What's your approach to code reviews?
  • Are you comfortable with on-call rotations?

Sales

  • What was your quota attainment in your last role?
  • Describe your largest closed deal
  • How do you approach prospecting?
  • Are you comfortable with cold outreach?

Design

Questionnaire FAQs

Can I make questions required or optional?

Yes—each question can be marked as required or optional. Required questions must be answered before the candidate can submit their application. Use this for deal-breaker questions, and make nice-to-know questions optional.

Can I use different questions for different jobs?

Each job posting can have its own set of questions. You might ask about Python experience for a backend role and React experience for a frontend role. Create reusable question templates to save time when posting similar jobs.

How do internal evaluation forms work?

After interviewing a candidate, team members fill out a standardized evaluation form. This includes numerical ratings (1-5 or 1-10) for different criteria, text fields for specific observations, and an overall recommendation. All feedback is attached to the candidate's profile.

Can I customize the rating scale?

Yes—choose from 1-5 scales, 1-10 scales, or create custom labels (e.g., 'Needs Work', 'Meets Bar', 'Exceeds Bar'). Different teams prefer different scales, so we give you the flexibility to match your existing processes.

Can candidates save their progress and come back?

Draft automatically saves candidate progress as they fill out the application. If they close the browser and return later, their answers are preserved. This is especially important for lengthy applications that candidates might complete across multiple sessions.
