$19.00

Generic scorecards produce generic hiring decisions. These role-specific scorecards are built around the competencies that actually predict success in each function.

Software Engineer scorecard: technical problem-solving, code quality judgment, systems thinking, and collaboration. Product Manager scorecard: product sense, prioritization, stakeholder management, and data orientation. Sales scorecard: commercial acumen, discovery skills, resilience, and pipeline discipline. Each scorecard includes competency descriptions, evidence prompts, and a weighted scoring model.

FAQS

Q  Why are role-specific scorecards better than a generic one?

A generic scorecard applies the same competencies to every role, which means important role-specific predictors are missed. A strong software engineer and a strong product manager require fundamentally different competencies, and the evidence that demonstrates each one in an interview looks different too. Role-specific scorecards define the right competencies, provide evidence prompts tailored to that work, and apply weightings that reflect what matters most for performance in that specific function.

Q  What competencies does each scorecard cover?

Software Engineer: technical problem-solving, code quality judgment, systems thinking, collaboration, and communication. Product Manager: product sense, prioritization under constraints, stakeholder management, data orientation, and strategic thinking. Sales: commercial acumen, discovery and qualification skills, objection handling, pipeline discipline, and resilience. Each scorecard also includes a culture contribution section using objective, evidence-based criteria.

Q  How do the scorecards connect to the Interview Question Bank?

The Scorecards identify which competencies to assess; the Question Bank provides two to three questions per competency to use in the interview. Together they produce a structured, consistent process: same competencies assessed, same questions asked, scores documented independently before the group debrief. The Debrief Guide then provides the facilitation framework for converting those scores into a hiring decision.

Q  Can I modify the competency weightings?

Yes. All scorecards are delivered as fully editable Word documents. The weighting column can be adjusted to reflect your organization's specific priorities — for example, weighting collaboration more heavily for a team-critical engineering role or commercial acumen more heavily for an enterprise sales role.
