What is Walk-In Interview?

An open interview session where candidates can attend without a prior appointment, commonly used in high-volume hiring across retail, hospitality, and healthcare.

Why it matters in hiring

Walk-In 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.
