Adaptability within the process is also key: We use Close’s customizable Statuses to show where a candidate is in the hiring process, which allows us to mark candidates as “applied” or “interviewing with senior leadership,” for example. This personalization means we can adapt these Statuses to fit our current process or change them as we continually improve.

Best of all, we can see all the information about a candidate summarized at the top of the page with AI-generated Lead Summaries. So, I need to check where a candidate is within the hiring process, I can see that immediately on one screen, with the highlights at the top.

Logging Interview Feedback and Notes
At Close, our hiring process is extremely collaborative bahamas telegram data and holistic. Each candidate is interviewed one-on-one as they progress through the pipeline. Every conversation has specific objectives and evaluates many facets of a candidate’s experience, including everything from communication style to subject matter expertise.

While this is time-intensive, it helps us hire the best possible additions to the Close team. Some companies prefer each interviewer to evaluate candidates in a vacuum, but that’s not how we’ve chosen to do things.

Our hiring philosophy is in-depth and outcome-oriented, and as such, it’s important for each team member interviewing a candidate to be able to review the notes and feedback from fellow team members who’ve already spoken with the candidate, getting as much context as possible upfront.

This is also important when you consider our hiring process isn’t quick (we typically see candidates move through our interviewing process over 30-90 days.) Keeping organized is a MUST.

To accomplish this, we use Custom Activities to track feedback in a standardized way after every interview.
