Hiring Operations (processes & tooling)
Anchor-Based Rating Scale
A rubric that maps each numeric score to a short, concrete behavioral anchor so reviewers rate consistently.
"I want every interviewer to mean the same thing when they pick a number."
An anchor-based rating scale defines explicit, behavior-focused descriptions ("anchors") for each numeric level (e.g., 1–5) so evaluators judge candidates against the same examples and expectations.
