As an interviewer, you play a critical role in helping your organization hire top talent. This article provides an introduction to the workflows you will commonly need to complete as an interviewer in your organization's Lever instance.


Submitting interview feedback

When you are scheduled for an interview with a candidate, you will receive a calendar invitation with the location of the interview (e.g. phone number, video conferencing link, reserved conference room etc.) along with a link to the candidate's feedback form and resume. You can access the candidate's feedback form and resume using the following methods.

1 - Calendar Invite

  • Click the 'view resume and leave feedback' link in the interview calendar event

2 - In Lever

  • Navigate to the Interviews section of your Lever environment
  • Click the Complete Feedback button next to the corresponding interview in Lever

3 - Email Reminder

  • Click the Complete Feedback button in the automated interview reminder email

Next, complete the interview feedback form including all required questions as well as the rating for the candidate, and then click the Submit Feedback button at the bottom of the form.

 

Working on the go? Though working out of a browser is the optimal experience, you can also complete interview feedback on a mobile device. To learn more, refer to our help article viewing interview activity on mobile.

Dismissing feedback reminders

In the event that you did not attend an interview or did not need to submit feedback for a specific interview for which you were scheduled, you can dismiss feedback reminders using the following methods:

  • Click the 'x' to the right of the Complete Feedback button in Lever

  • Click the Stop reminders and/or the I didn't attend this interview link(s) in the interview reminder email

Referring candidates

By referring candidates, you can help bring top-tier candidates into your organization's talent funnel. In Lever, you can refer candidates directly, as well as generate social media share links for open roles. To learn how to submit and manage referrals, refer to the following help article:

Applying for internal job postings

Your organization may choose to list certain job postings on their internal job board. Here is how to quickly access the internal job site: 

  • Navigate to the Interviews section of your Lever environment
  • Click the View job site button and select 'Internal Job Site'

The Lever platform treats applications from internal candidates differently, to ensure your job hunt is confidential. Only the appropriate members of your recruitment team will be able to see that you have applied to an internal role, and any scheduled interviews will be marked as private by default.

Managing your notifications and personal settings

Stay in the loop while protecting your inbox. To access your notification settings and/or update your avatar image, hover over your avatar in the platform header click on your email address.

To learn more about the different types of notification that you can enable/disable, hover over the question mark (?) next to each notification checkbox. For more detail on each notification, refer to our help article on configuring personal account settings.
