Welcome kit 3: Run AI interviews and make a decision
Let Tandem run the first AI interviews, read its reports, and make your first hiring decision: Tandem scores, you decide.
Set up the AI interview
Open Hiring flow, expand AI Interview and click Edit stage. Write a few questions about the work itself, mark the ones that matter most as High, and choose the language. Turn on Auto-advance only when you're comfortable with the bar.
Read the first reports
When a candidate finishes, open their profile and click Reports. Read the summary, then the reasoning behind each answer. Play the recording if something surprises you.
Make your first decision
Open Applicants and click Needs Review to see who's waiting for you and why. Use the Stage dropdown to move a candidate on, or to Hired or Rejected. Tandem never rejects anyone; that call is always yours.

Good to know
AI interviews use credits. Tandem reserves them when it sends an invite and spends them only when the interview happens.

That's the whole loop, from prompt to decision. If you get stuck, contact support.
Welcome kit 2: Reach your first candidates
With your role live, use Tandem to find people who haven't applied yet, invite them by email and read your first results.
