What makes an interview structured?
A structured interview uses predefined role-relevant questions, consistent scoring criteria, interviewer responsibilities, and documented evidence for each candidate.
Can CloudTest assessment results inform interview questions?
Yes. Candidate strengths and gaps from earlier assessments can help interviewers select focused follow-up questions while maintaining a consistent interview framework.
How do scoring rubrics improve interview quality?
Rubrics clarify what weak, acceptable, and strong evidence looks like, which helps interviewers rate responses more consistently.
