SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Most bad hires happen because teams never define what success looks like before interviewing, then let gut feelings and group consensus override evidence. This Skill enforces a structured, evidence-based hiring process so every candidate is graded against the same written bar. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Outcome Scorecards: Write a one-line mission, three to six ranked measurable outcomes, competencies, and a comp band before sourcing begins. - Structured Interview Loops: Build a coverage matrix, question bank, and work sample so every competency is tested once and scored independently. - Evidence-Based Decisions: Run debriefs with independent written scores, bias controls, a bar raiser, and reference checks as a real gate. - Offers and Onboarding: Set comp bands, handle counteroffers without breaking the band, and build a 30/60/90 plan mapped to the scorecard. - Use Case: A founder hiring a first salesperson gets a scorecard with a revenue target and date, an outbound sourcing plan, a mock discovery call as the work sample, and a 90-day ramp plan. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to help you define a role and run the hiring process, for example: "Help me create a scorecard and interview loop for hiring our first sales rep."

Frequently Asked Questions about resonance-people-hiring

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a hiring scorecard for a new role?▼

Write a one-sentence mission, three to six ranked outcomes each with a number and a date, the competencies that predict those outcomes, and a comp band. Write it before sourcing starts so every candidate is graded against the same target.

How do I design a structured interview loop?▼

Build a coverage matrix assigning each scorecard competency to specific interviewers, include a work sample, and write a question bank with rubrics. Every interviewer scores independently in writing before any group discussion.

Should I match a competing offer above my comp band?▼

No. Either the candidate genuinely operates a level up and the role scope supports re-leveling, or you hold the band and compete on mission, ownership, and growth. Breaking the band for one hire creates internal inequity that surfaces when pay becomes known.

Can I skip the interview loop for a strong referral candidate?▼

No. A referral gets a candidate in the door but does not lower the bar. Run a compressed but real loop: a fast scorecard, a work sample, a few structured interviews with independent scoring, and a reference check, which can complete in days.

What is a bar raiser in hiring?▼

A bar raiser is a trained interviewer outside the hiring team with no stake in filling the seat, holding a veto over the hire. They test whether the candidate raises the average of the team, counteracting the urgency to lower the bar.

What hiring tasks are out of scope for this Skill?▼

Employment law, contracts, visas, payroll, benefits, termination procedure, ATS vendor selection, org design, and performance management past the first 90 days are out of scope. It covers the hiring method, not legal compliance or tooling.
