You already know what a great hire looks like. Now every interviewer does too.
You write the definition once the skills, what matters most, what “strong” actually means for this role. S9 InnerView keeps every interviewer downstream reading from that same copy. Nobody’s quietly writing their own version halfway through the search.
The same document, from first draft to final score
Draft
Start with the job description. S9 InnerView drafts a first pass at the skills that matter, split across Career, Role, and Culture.
Edit
You adjust it until it’s actually right for this role, and decide how much each part should count.
Lock in
Once locked, that draft becomes the only copy anyone downstream reads from. Interviews happen against it.
Score
Scores come back with the reasoning attached. You read the case and make the call.
Foundational capabilities that drive long-term career success.
Role-specific skills essential for success in the position.
Alignment with the organization’s values, mindset, and ways of working.
Split across Career, Role, and Culture.
The Standard Carries Your Name
Before this, every interviewer quietly wrote their own version of “what we’re looking for” nobody assigned that job to them, it just happened, round after round, because nobody had written it down first.
Now there’s one document, and it’s yours.
When Candidate A gets the offer over Candidate B, the reasoning already exists. Nobody has to reconstruct it from memory.
The Final Decision Stays Yours
S9 InnerView organizes the evidence and shows its work it doesn’t hire anyone. The definition is yours. The call is yours. Everything in between just makes sure nobody’s working from a different draft than you wrote.
