    Scout keeps searching

    Scout uses your feedback to refine the search. You choose who to contact.

What you receive

A shortlist with reasons, evidence and open questions.

Scout shows why a profile may be relevant without presenting unknown information as fact.

01Known information
Relevant experience and supporting profile information.
02Open questions
Interest, salary expectations and availability still need a conversation.
03Your decision
You assess the profile and decide who to contact.

Questions about the approach

Short answers about what you provide, what changes and what you continue to decide.

Do I need a job description?

No. You can begin in plain language. If you already have a job description, you can use it as additional context.

Can I use feedback about previous candidates?

Yes. Specific feedback about what fits and what does not helps make the search direction clearer.

What happens when the first candidates miss the mark?

Explain what is missing or overemphasised. Scout uses that feedback to refine the direction and show different profiles.

What information is included with a candidate?

You see known relevant experience, why the profile may be worth reviewing and which important questions remain open.

Does appearing in the shortlist mean someone is interested or available?

No. Interest, salary expectations and availability remain open until you discuss them with the candidate.

Who decides whom to contact?

You decide which candidates to contact and lead the conversation with them.
