Interview Summary Agent — Structured Debrief Capture

The Interview Summary Agent captures structured debrief notes from interviewers and consolidates them into a candidate assessment — reducing debrief friction while improving the quality of hiring decisions.

Debriefs that actually inform decisions

Interview debrief quality is one of the most under-managed variables in the hiring process. When interviewers aren't prompted to provide structured feedback immediately after an interview, the quality of their recall degrades rapidly — and the hiring decision ends up being made on impressions rather than evidence.

The Interview Summary Agent sends a structured debrief questionnaire to each interviewer immediately after their session. Responses are consolidated into a per-candidate assessment with fit-signal analysis against the intake brief. The recruiter reviews the consolidated assessment before it is shared with the hiring committee.

Interview Summary Agent capabilities

Immediate post-interview debrief capture

Sends a structured debrief questionnaire to interviewers within 30 minutes of interview completion — while recall is fresh. Completion typically takes under 10 minutes.

Multi-interviewer consolidation

Consolidates feedback from all interviewers into a single candidate assessment with agreement and divergence surfaced — so hiring committee discussion is informed, not redundant.

Intake-brief alignment analysis

AI-assisted analysis maps interviewer observations to intake brief success criteria — identifying which criteria were addressed and which remain open.

Recruiter-reviewed before sharing

Consolidated assessments are reviewed by the recruiter before sharing with the hiring committee. Recruiter can add context, flag concerns, or adjust framing.

Interview summary workflow

Interview completes → debrief questionnaire sent → responses consolidated → recruiter review → hiring committee share.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can interviewers see each other's debrief responses before the consolidated assessment?

By default, individual responses are blinded until the consolidated assessment is generated — reducing anchoring effects from early-responder bias.

Is the debrief questionnaire configurable per role or interview stage?

Yes. The agent generates questionnaire content from the intake brief, but recruiters can customize question focus by interview stage (technical, cultural, leadership).
