Time to Review Insights
When a quality applicant applies, our best practice is to review and reach out to them within 24 hours or less.
To take a pulse check of how quickly you and your team are reviewing your applicants, review the "Time to Review" data within the Hiring Velocity report.
Mobile App Activity
The Hireology mobile app is a great tool for hiring managers to connect with new applicants quickly and kickstart the hiring process. You can download our app for your smartphone by searching for Hireology in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Recently updated, our iOS and Android app features the ability to:
- Review applicants and their documents
- Communicate with applicants via text or email
- Advance, decline or hire applicants
- Search through your candidate database.
Speed with the Prescreen Survey
Prescreen Surveys use automatically scored true and false statements to provide insight into applicants prior to conducting an interview. In general, those who have scored 70% or higher on the survey are considered to be quality applicants.
We recommend you use the prescreen survey score as a way to prioritize reviewing and reaching out to applicants
- Customizing the prescreen survey will ensure that the survey score is a valuable and trusted assessment of quality.
- Take a deeper dive into how your applicant answered each question by reviewing the full survey.
Interview Best Practices
Once you have identified a quality applicant, reaching out to schedule an interview quickly is critical.
