Set calibration
Before any action can occur in Talent Matching, you must set up your calibration for the role. The calibration is a set of your defined and weighted criteria that is used to calculate how strongly a candidate matches your settings.
You can find the calibration by clicking Create Calibration in the top right corner of the page.
You can quickly add skills by defining your role in a couple sentences using the field at the top of the page and clicking Generate skills.
Otherwise, you can add skill by choosing from the list of suggested skills or clicking Add skill manually.
After a skill is added, rate its importance to the role. This will be used as part of the matching to figure out where you want to put emphasis for the role.
Complete the rest of the fields in the window and click Save Calibration you're finished.
Review candidates using Talent Matching
After a calibration is completed, the candidate's Match score will display on the table.
You can click the score to see what skills were matched on the calibration.
A match score can be one of five categories:
- Strong match
- Good match
- Partial match
- Limited match
- Needs manual review
Note: Candidates who need manual review must be assigned a match score by a user. Read more about manual review.
To view candidate details, click a name on the list. The side panel will expand and show:
- The candidates resume, with highlighted terms based on what was included in talent matching
- A justification summary as to why the candidate was assigned their specific match score
Filters at the top of the page can be used to narrow the list.
Available columns can be controlled by clicking the icon next to the calibration button.
Override a candidate's match score
You may want to override the score if you've manually reviewed the candidate's resume and decided that the information wasn't accurate.
Open the side panel.
Click Override match score under the summary.
Follow the steps in the window to override the score.
Find candidates who need manual review
In some cases, a candidate may need to be manually reviewed by your team. This occurs in cases where a candidate's resume could not be reviewed, or AI is turned off for a job.
To find candidates who require manual review, use the filter at the top of the page.
Update calibration
To modify your calibration for the role, click Update calibration in the top right corner and update the information in the field.
After a calibration is updated, all current candidates will be reviewed and assigned a new match score.
