Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a recruitment system and more particularly relate to a system and a method for generating interview insights in an interviewing process to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the interviewing process.

BACKGROUND

Interviews are one of the most used methods to evaluate a candidate's eligibility for opportunities for job, promotion, higher studies, and the like. Therefore, thoroughness and fairness of the evaluation process is particularly important. The ability of an interviewer to interact with a candidate and unearth sufficient information to determine the candidate's eligibility is a crucial step of the evaluation process as the interviewer represents the organization during the interview. Often organizations may end up with poor decisions as there is no formal training process for interviewers, no quality review is performed on their interviewing technique, no interview insights, or candidate skill graphs for the interviewers, and no analysis is performed on the success of their decision to approve or reject any candidate in a systematic manner. Moreover, sometimes the interviews become biased due to unconscious biases of the interviewer. Improper training of the interviewer, lack of reviews and poor analysis may lead to poor decisions and being unfair to candidates who are actually deserving. In addition, there are areas where candidates may be more objectively evaluated by a proprietary scoring mechanism than individual interviewers.

Hence, there is a need in the art for a system and a method for generating interview insights in an interviewing process to address at least the aforementioned issues.
