What is Peer Review?

Performance feedback provided by colleagues at the same organizational level, capturing perspectives on collaboration, teamwork, and day-to-day behaviors that managers may not directly observe.

Why it matters in hiring

Peer Review comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
