What is Structured Interview?

A hiring interview format where every candidate gets the same predetermined questions, scored against a standardized rubric to improve consistency and fairness.

Why it matters in hiring

Structured Interview 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.
