In most organizations (if not all), interviewing candidates is an imperfect practice. Interviewing can help you find your ideal hire, but it also sometimes results in the downright wrong hire.

An interview evaluation form helps interviewers provide detailed and structured candidate feedback following an interview. Standardized interviewer feedback ensures all candidates for a given role are being evaluated on the same criteria so you can make apples to apples comparisons. This, in turn, helps hiring managers make well-informed decisions about which candidates to move forward in the recruitment process and, ultimately, hire.

There’s a slight disagreement about whether or not employees are being paid fairly. A 2016 report from Payscale found that while 73 percent of employers feel they offer fair pay, only 36 percent of employees agreed. As a recruiter, you’re in a unique position to help close that gap because often you’re the first person to begin discussion about salary negotiations with candidates.

Can your company afford to have people saying bad things about them? Trust me, people put a lot of stock by the opinions of random people that they’ve never met. Think about the last time you bought something from Amazon.
