# Tasks and scorecards

> Assign follow-up work to the hiring team and collect structured interview feedback.

Tasks track the work a hire needs; scorecards turn interview impressions into
comparable, structured feedback. Both keep the hiring team aligned without
side-channel chat.

## Tasks

A task is a piece of follow-up work tied to a candidate, application, or job —
for example, "send the take-home" or "check references." Assign it to a
teammate with a due date.

* Tasks appear on the owner's list and on the related candidate.
* Completing a task records who did it and when on the timeline.
* An [automation](/developers/automations) can create a task on a stage change,
  so routine steps are never forgotten.

<Tip>
  Use a task for anything with an owner and a deadline. Use a note for a decision
  or context. Keeping them distinct keeps the timeline readable.
</Tip>

## Scorecards

A scorecard is a set of criteria an interviewer rates after an interview.
Instead of free-form impressions, each interviewer submits scores and notes
against the same criteria, so candidates are compared on the same basis.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Assign the scorecard">
    Attach a scorecard to an interview or interviewer. Choose the template that
    matches the stage.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit feedback">
    After the interview, the interviewer rates each criterion and adds notes.
    Submit once — a completed scorecard is part of the record.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Compare">
    Before a stage decision, review scorecards side by side. Look at the reasons,
    not only the totals.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  A scorecard is a decision aid, not a decision. A human owns every hire and
  reject. Do not auto-advance or auto-reject on a score alone.
</Warning>
