Guides
Practical guides for every step of hiring
Written for everyone on the growing side of the table: the person drafting the job post, reading applications, scheduling interviews and measuring the process.
Every guide here answers a single question from start to finish and moves step by step: what to do, in which order to do it and where it usually goes wrong. This is not a list of general advice, there is enough detail to do the same work tomorrow morning.
When a guide describes product behaviour, that is genuinely how GoTeam works. The screens behind each step sit in the links at the end of the guide, but the guide itself can be applied without using the product.
Attracting candidates
How to create a career pageA guide to setting up the company career page from the panel: turning the page on, brand settings, writing a posting, the application form and what it takes to reach search results.How to write a job postingA guide to writing a job posting: basic information, the description, weighted requirements and responsibilities. Under 300 characters, the posting is closed to search.
Setting up the process
What is a structured interviewA structured interview is an interview whose questions are prepared in advance and whose answers are marked on a fixed scale. Categories, rounds, the decision scale and how the score is computed.Hiring evaluation criteriaWeighting posting criteria, decision bands and rubric approval. A posting will not save until the weights add up to 100; the required flag caps the score, it does not eliminate.KVKK in recruitmentFor candidate data the company is the data controller. The privacy notice and consent text, masking with the pii:view permission, the audit log and the deletion chain, step by step.Is AI in hiring legalNot banned, conditional: the right to object, equal treatment and human oversight. Which rule binds what, and where the reason behind a decision is recorded in the panel.What an ATS isAn ATS is the software that gathers applications in one place and shows the stage every candidate is at. What it does, what it does not do, and who makes the call.What onboarding documents are requiredOnboarding documents are the paperwork requested after a hiring decision. The default eight item list, the internship set, who is asked and when, and how delivery is tracked.Hiring process stagesThe hiring stages in order: need, posting, application, evaluation, interview, decision and document collection. What each stage produces and the condition that opens the next one.What recruitment software isRecruitment software runs the chain from publishing a posting to the employee record in one panel. Which links it has, and which of them your plan opens.What is a competency based interviewA competency based interview ties every question to a single competency and looks for a lived example in the answer. The definition, the question patterns and the grading scale.
Measurement
What a hiring funnel isA hiring funnel is the countable form of the stages an application passes through from the first record to the hire. The stages, which metric is measured where, how a blockage is read.Recruitment metricsWhat do recruitment metrics measure and which range does each number cover? KPI cards, the comparison baseline, pool KPIs, the calibration report and what is never measured.Cost per hireThe cost per hire formula, the line item list and the period boundary. Which inputs come out of the panel, which stay manual, and the seven things that break the number: step by step.Time to hireWhich two points time to hire counts between, where the start and end dates come from in the panel, and the eight things that break the calculation: a guide grounded in the code.
