How do I read and verify a scorecard?
Start with the overall band, then verify the must-haves, criterion scores, and evidence before making a decision.
Read it in this order
- Check the Strong, Mixed, or Weak band. If Kira could not score enough criteria, the band is withheld and shown as Couldn’t tell.
- Review each must-have. Met, Not met, and Not confirmed are separate results. A Not met result caps a shown band at Weak. Not confirmed means the interview did not establish an answer, not that the requirement failed.
- Read the 1 to 5 score, behavioral anchor, and rationale for each item under What Kira listened for. Not scored means there was not enough evidence for that criterion.
- Verify the evidence. Quotes are matched to the transcript and carry a timestamp. Use Play full answer, the transcript, and audio replay when available to check the surrounding answer.
- Record your own rating, notes, and stage decision. Kira's assessment is read-only and never hires or rejects a candidate for you.
For a shortlist, compare completed scorecards side by side. When your review is complete, move the candidate through the pipeline.
A vacancy with no scoring criteria has a recording and transcript instead of an AI scorecard. See how interviews without AI scoring work.
