Interviews & Assessments for HireZootSettings

Settings

Available to users with the required plugin management permissions.

This section contains three sub-tabs:

  • General
  • Scoreboards
  • Notifications

General

  • Feedback Visibility: Controls whether hiring panelists can see each other's feedback on an evaluation. Choose from:
    • Always visible — evaluators can view other panelists' feedback at any time.
    • After Submission — feedback becomes visible to other evaluators only after the viewer submits their own.
    • Hidden — evaluators only ever see their own feedback.

Scoreboards

  • Evaluation Forms: Reusable scorecard templates attached to interviews and assessments. Each form lists a Form ID, Name, and number of Questions.
  • New Form: Creates a new evaluation form with a title and an ordered list of questions.
  • Edit / Duplicate / Delete: Available per form. Delete is disabled for the built-in default forms.
  • Default Forms: Four forms are included out of the box — General Interview, HR / Candidate Fit Interview, General Assessment, and CV Assessment / Screening — each pre-filled with a standard set of questions.

Notifications

  • Notification Templates: Email templates sent at each stage of the interview lifecycle, listed as an expandable accordion.
  • Template Name: A label to identify the template.
  • Type: Whether the template applies to an Interview or an Assessment.
  • Event: Whether the template sends on Schedule, Reschedule, or Cancel.
  • To: Whether the email goes to the Candidate or the Evaluator.
  • From / Subject / CC: Standard email header fields.
  • Content: A rich-text editor for the email body, with an option to Use HTML Template.
  • Template Tags: A reference panel listing merge tags (candidate name, job title, interview date, evaluator, etc.) available for use in the subject or content.
  • New template / Save / Delete template: Manage templates individually.
