Reviewing an Interview

Clicking a candidate row in the Interview Results Table opens that candidate’s full interview review. The left side is the recording and transcript, the right side is the analysis: scores, summary, question grades, candidate questions, recommended jobs, flagged events, and the AI chat. The screenshots in this guide use a video interview. Phone interviews use the same layout, but without the video player, Proctoring ring, and Flagged Events section.

​

Tabs Across the Top

Above the candidate name you’ll see a row of tabs. Which ones appear depends on the interview type and your job’s configuration:

• Video Call / Phone Call: The interview itself — recording (or audio) and transcript.
• SMS: Text history with the candidate.
• Email: Email history with the candidate.
• Resume: The candidate’s resume (only when one is on file).
• Timeline: Scheduled follow-up events for the candidate.
• Scheduled Follow Up: Active follow-up scheduling state.
• Feedback: Candidate-submitted feedback about their interview experience (only when feedback was actually provided).
• ID Verification: Persona ID verification details (video jobs with ID verification on).
• Follow Ups (Beta): Notes for the candidate.

​

Playing the Video and Following the Transcript

The video plays in the panel on the left side of the Video Call tab, with standard play / pause, volume, full-screen, and (for video interviews recorded on a desktop with screen share) a toggle to switch between the candidate’s webcam and their screen. Network bars show the candidate’s connection quality across the call. The transcript appears under the video. Anything that has a timestamp is clickable and seeks the video to that moment, including:

• Lines in the transcript itself
• Question grades on the right side
• Candidate questions
• Flagged events (and individual frames within them)

This makes it easy to jump straight to the part of the interview behind any score, comment, or flagged moment.

​

Scores at the Top: Completion, Grade, Proctoring

The header on the right side shows three rings at the top, plus an “Ask anything about this interview” button.

• Completion: The percentage of the interview the candidate completed. 100% means they reached the end.
• Grade: The candidate’s overall interview score, 0–100, computed from how the candidate’s answers were graded against the configured screening questions.
• Proctoring: Video interviews only. A 0–100 score that summarizes how clean the interview was based on the frequency of flagged suspicious events. See Proctoring Score for the full scoring rules.

The thumbs up, thumbs down, and comment icons next to the candidate name behave the same as in the Interview Results Table.

​

Summary

The Summary is a generated overview of the interview. The exact sections (such as background, reason for looking, key prior experiences, key strengths, and candidate location) come from the job’s summary template. Click the pencil icon next to Summary to edit the generated text directly, or apply a saved summary template.

​

Question Grades

The Question Grades section is the per-question breakdown of how Tenzo graded the candidate’s answers. For each question, the card shows:

• Score (left): The grade Tenzo assigned this question, rounded to a whole number out of 100. A ? means the question was not asked, a red score means a required question was failed (grade 0).
• Question title: What the candidate was asked.
• Badges: Question type and importance pills, such as Resume Based, Major, Info, or knockout markers, when they apply to this question.
• Answer: A condensed version of the candidate’s answer.
• Show Breakdown: Appears for questions graded against a rubric (bucket grading).

Clicking any question card seeks the video to the moment that question was answered.

​

Grading Instructions Tooltip

Hovering the score on the left of a question reveals the Grading Instructions Tenzo used for that question. For auto-generated and resume-based questions, the tooltip also shows the Generation Instructions that produced the question.

​

Show Breakdown

Clicking Show Breakdown expands the rubric scoring for that question. For each category in the rubric, the breakdown shows:

• Category name and max points (such as Motivation for Applying (max: 50 pts))
• Score: Points awarded.
• Selected Bucket: The rubric bucket Tenzo chose for this category.
• Rationale: Why Tenzo chose that bucket.
• Total Score at the bottom when there are multiple categories.

If you manually edit a category score, it is tagged Human Override in the breakdown.

​

Candidate Questions

If the candidate asked any questions of their own during the interview, they are listed in the Candidate Questions section. Each entry shows the candidate’s question (bold) and how Tenzo answered it during the interview. Clicking the card seeks the video to where the question was asked. If the candidate asked a question Tenzo couldn’t answer, the entry is highlighted in orange with an See Job Background Info link. Use that link to add the missing context to the job’s Background Info so future candidates get a real answer.

​

Recommended Jobs

When reverse sourcing is enabled, Tenzo can also recommend other open jobs in your workspace that this candidate might fit. Recommendations appear in two groups when applicable:

• Recommended Jobs (Within 40 miles) — jobs near the candidate’s location.
• Recommended Jobs (Anywhere) — jobs anywhere in the workspace.

Each row shows:

• Plus icon (+): Add this candidate to that job as a sourced candidate.
• Job name: Click to open the job’s script editor in a new tab.
• Star rating: A 1–5 star match score. Hover the stars to see Tenzo’s reasoning for the match.

If no matches are found, the section shows No matching jobs found for this candidate.

​

Flagged Events (Video Interviews)

For video interviews, the Flagged Events section lists proctoring events that were detected during the interview. These are the same events that drive the Proctoring score. If nothing was flagged, you’ll see this: Otherwise each event is listed with its timestamp (or time range when the event lasted longer than a few seconds) and a description. Clicking an event seeks the video to that moment. Events that the AI vision analysis classified as not suspicious are hidden from this list.

​

Event Types

Common events you may see:

• Tab switch detected — the candidate moved focus to a different tab or window.
• Not in frame / Candidate absent then returns to frame — the candidate was missing from the camera view.
• Multiple people — more than one person was detected in the camera view.
• Looking away / Partially out of frame — the candidate’s face was off-screen or turned away.
• VPN or proxy detected — the candidate’s IP looks like a VPN or proxy.
• Location outside allowed countries — the candidate’s IP is in a country your job does not allow.
• Camera off / Camera disconnected / Mic off / Mic disconnected / Screen share disconnected — the corresponding device or stream stopped during the interview.
• App switch — mobile candidate switched to another app.
• Copy-paste used — the candidate pasted text into an answer field.
• Rejoined — the candidate left and rejoined the interview.

​

Which Events Have Images

Face and visual events show a thumbnail of the camera frame at the moment of the event. These include Not in frame, Multiple people, Looking away, and Partially out of frame. For events with multiple captured frames, the thumbnail shows a 1/N counter and a Show more analysis link expands a gallery of every captured frame plus the AI’s detailed analysis. Most other events show only the timestamp and description. Tab switch events typically don’t include an image because the camera is no longer in focus during a tab switch — the screenshot above shows several tab switches without thumbnails.

​

Ask Anything About This Interview

The Ask anything about this interview button opens an AI chat scoped to this candidate’s transcript. When opened for the first time, the chat shows a welcome banner and four suggested prompts:

• What concerns did the candidate have about the job?
• Did the candidate mention their primary reason for wanting this role?
• Write a submission email to send to the hiring manager highlighting why they’d be a good fit. Use bullets.
• Did the candidate mention their salary expectations?

Click a suggested prompt to send it as a message, or type any question into the input at the bottom. The microphone icon dictates your message via speech-to-text. Responses are formatted markdown, so things like submission emails, bulleted highlights, and tables render cleanly. You can also start the same chat for multiple candidates at once from the Interview Results Table by selecting candidates and clicking Chat Assistant.

​

Resume Tab

When the candidate has a resume on file, a Resume tab appears in the top tab row. The tab shows the candidate’s contact info, an inline PDF preview, and a Resume download link with a download icon for grabbing the original file. When resume filtering is enabled for the job, the resume score, star rating, and per-requirement match badges (with hover-evidence) also appear above the PDF.

​

Feedback Tab

When the candidate submitted feedback after their interview, the Feedback tab is enabled. The tab shows up to three sections:

• Interview Experience Rating: The candidate’s 1–5 star rating of the interview, plus a badge for how the feedback was collected — Video Interview for in-app feedback after a video interview, or Phone Feedback for SMS-based feedback after a phone interview. Stars are colored green for 4–5, yellow for 3, and red for 1–2.
• Feedback Reasons: Tagged reasons the candidate selected, such as Smooth and efficient experience, Significantly worse than a human, or Technical issues (video interviews only).
• Additional Comments: Free-text comments from the candidate (when provided).

If the candidate provided phone feedback over SMS, a Feedback Responses section shows their answer to the open-ended “anything else” question.
