Run a Structured Debrief to Make the Hiring Decision
Five interviewers, three candidates and a meeting that risks going to whoever talks loudest. This sets up a structured debrief: agreed must-haves up front, each candidate scored one to five per criterion, and a clear path to the decision. You give it the interviewers and the shortlist, and the room argues about evidence rather than vibes.
<context>
