Pipeline & decisions

One hiring pipeline, with authority where it belongs.

Every application moves through the same stages — CV Pool, Expert Review, Tech Evaluation, Shortlisted, Selected, and Hired — while recruiters, client teams, and interviewers each act within their role.

The problem

Hiring breaks down between teams.

Recruiters, hiring managers, and interviewers often work from different spreadsheets and inboxes. HireIQ keeps one record per application, shows where it is and what happens next, and records who made each decision.

How it works

The workflow, step by step.

  1. 1

    Collect the requirement

    An HR Head captures the basics — title, location, experience, headcount, and must-haves. A recruiter completes the analysis before the role is published.

  2. 2

    Move applications through stages

    Expert review and technical evaluation build the evidence that a shortlist is based on, with every stage change recorded.

  3. 3

    Share the shortlist

    Client teams review shortlisted candidates with their evidence and interview feedback inside their own portal.

  4. 4

    Select, offer, and hire

    Authorized client roles select candidates and confirm hires. Offers are sent through a secure acceptance link.

Capabilities

What’s included in pipeline & decisions.

  • Work queues

    Dashboards list the decisions waiting on each person — shortlists due, reviews pending, hires awaiting confirmation.

  • Shortlist deadlines

    Each requirement can carry a shortlist due date, and dashboards flag requirements at risk of missing it.

  • Role-based client seats

    Owner, HR Head, Recruiter, and Member seats each have defined rights over requirements, job portals, candidates, and hiring decisions.

  • Requirement approval

    Requirements extracted from a job description start as drafts. A person approves each one and marks it required or preferred before screening relies on it.

  • Candidate communication

    Stage changes can notify candidates, and each candidate can check the status of an application from a private link.

  • Transparent billing on hire

    When a hire is confirmed, the client sees how the fee was calculated from compensation and the agreed markup.

Controls and safeguards

  • Hire decisions are limited to roles allowed to make them.
  • Rejections require a recorded reason.
  • Stage history is preserved for every application.
  • Client teams only see their own company’s requirements and candidates.

FAQ

Pipeline & decisions: common questions

Can we customize the pipeline stages?

HireIQ uses one consistent set of stages across every role so that reporting, permissions, and history mean the same thing everywhere.

Who can confirm a hire?

Client owners can always confirm hires. Members follow the company’s setting, and HR Head and Recruiter seats cannot make hire decisions.

Can candidates see where they stand?

Yes. Each candidate receives a private status link that shows the stage of their application without exposing other candidates or internal notes.
