The Brief

Hiring, without a hiring background

Managers across Alut's facilities aren't recruitment specialists, but they're the ones interviewing and hiring for their own teams. Without a shared structure, interview quality, reference checks, and hiring decisions varied manager to manager, with no consistent way to compare candidates. The head of the recruitment department saw the need and came up with the idea: give the managers in the field a tool.

I designed and built the tool together with the head of the recruitment department, whose years of recruiting experience shaped it.

The Solution

Four tools, one interview

The head of recruitment is the department's authority, with years of experience, so the goal was to carry her knowledge into a process that newer managers could follow. Four connected pieces: role-specific interview questions, where each role has its own list and every question measures a different section or quality; a structured reference-call script covering what to ask and how to run the call; a weighted rating questionnaire that turns interview signals into one comparable score; and a labor-law FAQ that keeps managers compliant along the way: what's legal to ask, notice requirements, timelines.

Interview prep: candidate and role details in, a set of tailored interview questions out

The Outcome

A repeatable process, not a personal skill

  1. 01Presented to managersWe showed it in a meeting held for managers, and they were excited to have a tool that would help them.
  2. 02Asked for moreManagers use it, and they keep asking us to add more roles.
  3. 03Part of intakeThe scores then became part of the intake process, so for certain intakes managers have to use it.
