Prysm Note for hiring
Hiring is a queue with people in it, and the most common failure is silence. A simple pipeline that makes waiting visible prevents the slow fade that candidates read as rejection.
What matters here
- A list per open role
- One task per candidate with a stage
- Notes from each interview in one place
- Reminders for every promised update
- A weekly review of stalled candidates
Setting up a role
One list per role, one task per candidate. Put the stage in the task status and the source in a tag, which is enough structure to answer where everyone is.
Interview notes
One note per candidate, appended after each conversation. Compare candidates on the same questions, not on the impression left by the last interview.
Keeping candidates informed
A reminder to send an update, even when the update is that there is none. The cost of silence is higher than the cost of a short email.
