Welcome to the RightMatch AI Knowledge Base. This article provides a comprehensive overview of how scoring works within our platform, helping you make the most informed hiring decisions.
Interview Scoring
Question Scoring
Scoring Range: Each question is scored on a scale from 1 to 5 based on the candidate’s answer.
Scoring Criteria: The scoring takes into account:
The applicant’s response.
The skill level designated in the interview (e.g., Beginner, Intermediate, Expert).
The job description.
The specific skills associated with the question.
Unanswered Questions: If a question is left unanswered, it receives a score of 0.
Skill Scores
Aggregation: Question scores are aggregated by skill to form overall skill scores.
Multiple Skills per Question:
If a question pertains to multiple skills, it is proportionally weighted for each skill.
Questions associated with a single skill carry more weight for that particular skill.
Aptitude Score
Calculation: The aptitude score is a weighted average of the individual skill scores.
Weighting Factors: Skills are weighted based on their designated skill level:
Expert skills have a higher weight.
Beginner skills have a lower weight.
Custom Scores and Models
Team Input: Custom scores provided by your team members are integrated into the model, enriching the context for future interviews.
Model Updates: A new custom model is generated after every 25 custom scores are added, ensuring the model stays current with your team’s insights.
Resume Scoring
Skills and Work Experience Extraction
Data Extraction: The system extracts relevant skills and work experience from the candidate’s uploaded resume (in PDF or DOCX format).
Comparison Basis: These extracted elements are compared against the job description to evaluate fit.
Scoring Weightage
Work Experience: Holds the highest weight in the resume scoring algorithm at 70%.
Skills: Contribute 30% to the overall resume score.
Rationale: This weighting reflects the greater importance of practical experience in most job roles.
Custom Models
Continuous Improvement: Similar to interview scoring, a new custom resume scoring model is generated after every 25 custom scores are added.
Customization: This allows the model to adapt to specific criteria and preferences unique to your organization.
Important Notes
Video and Transcript Usage
Video Content: The candidate’s video is not used in the scoring process.
Transcript Reliance: Only the transcript of their answers is considered, ensuring a focus on content over presentation.
Spelling and Grammar Considerations
AI-Generated Transcripts: Since transcripts are generated by AI, spelling mistakes from the candidate are not penalized.
Text-Based Interviews: For interviews conducted via text, spelling and grammar are evaluated and can impact the score.
Trust Score
Independence from Performance: The trust score is independent of the candidate’s interview or resume performance.
Determining Factors: It is solely influenced by the candidate’s browser events during the interview process.
