Interview Bar Calibration & Hiring Support

I help calibrate interview standards and support hiring processes – ensuring consistent quality assessment, improving hiring decisions, and signaling focus on engineering quality through structured interview processes.

The Approach

What I Address

Teams without calibrated interview standards face inconsistent hiring decisions, missed quality signals, and engineering standard variations that impact team quality and culture.

Without proper calibration, interviewers assess candidates differently, making it difficult to maintain consistent quality standards and build strong engineering teams.

How I Work

I provide interview bar calibration and hiring support that improves hiring quality:

  • Assess current interview processes and standards
  • Calibrate interview bar and assessment criteria
  • Review interview questions and evaluation approaches

The Value

Outcomes

  • Consistent interview standards and assessment criteria
  • Improved hiring decisions and quality outcomes
  • Clear quality signals and evaluation framework
  • Stronger engineering team quality and culture
  • Confidence in hiring processes and decisions

Deliverables

  • Interview bar calibration assessment
  • Standardized interview processes and criteria
  • Interview question and evaluation framework
  • Hiring process improvements and recommendations
  • Quality assessment and calibration guidance
  • Follow-up consultation on hiring processes

The Fit

Who This Is For

Engineering teams building hiring processes, founders scaling engineering teams, CTOs ensuring quality hiring, and organizations improving recruitment.

This applies to teams establishing hiring standards, organizations scaling engineering, companies improving hiring quality, or teams calibrating interview processes.

Ideal timing includes when building hiring processes, during team scaling, when improving hiring quality, when establishing standards, or as part of recruitment improvement.

Why Interview Bar Calibration Matters

Consistent interview standards are essential for quality hiring. Without proper calibration, teams make inconsistent hiring decisions, miss quality signals, and struggle to maintain engineering standards. Expert calibration helps you establish and maintain high-quality hiring processes.
