We’re back with another rundown of what’s new on Lavalier. This time, we cover two features that help you go deeper on hiring evidence and measurement. Plus, a reminder your Workday integration is ready.

Get a visual map of candidate experiences connected to role requirements

Most of the time, it’s hard to make sense of what happened in an interview. Do they have all the right skills? Did you get enough evidence to be sure?

Now you’ll see a visual of what candidates shared in their interviews mapped to the specific requirements of the role. Instead of reconciling transcripts, scattered notes and feedback, Skills Matrix organizes interview evidence against the competencies that matter, so teams can see at a glance where a candidate has experience and where you still need more signal.

When hiring teams explicitly assess candidate performance against job-related capabilities, research has shown the eventual hire performs better on the job. High-quality interview documentation predicts on-the-job performance, but it goes even further. Candidates who are hired based on high-quality, documented interview assessments are also more likely to be in the organization three years later. In other words, when hiring teams document clear skills assessments, they make better hires.

Bring definition to “culture-fit” and evaluate candidates against your values

Every company has values that matter to them. These are typically the qualities that amount to “culture-fit.” But this has historically been difficult to measure consistently, and at scale. Worse case, it falls back to gut feel.

Hiring teams can now define the specific values and competencies that matter to their organization, then measure how well each candidate demonstrated those values in every interview.

Instead of relegating values alignment to post-interview opinions, Lavalier surfaces what candidates said and did, so teams can factor real “culture-fit” measurement into their final hiring decisions.

Be sure to integrate your ATS, especially Workday

We now have several ATS, calendar, and conferencing integrations ready to turn on but today we’re highlighting Workday.

Integrate Workday and your candidates, roles and structure, scheduled interviews, and scorecard information flow between tools automatically.
