Question and scope

This is a measurement method for candidate slate, not a performance score, an audit opinion, or a legal conclusion. The Hire Executive Team candidate slate service for executive hiring teams treats 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap' as the evidence sequence for candidate slate. Neighbouring executive hiring and team building services such as role brief and interview loop follow the same rule. the hiring executive signs the release, and the hireexecutiveteam.com record keeps the source date.

The purpose of this protocol is to make candidate slate reviewable by the hiring executive using the same definitions each time. For executive hiring teams, Hire Executive Team separates preparation from approval across its executive hiring and team building services, including candidate slate, role brief, and interview loop. The specialist completes 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap' on candidate slate; the hiring executive decides what leaves the queue. The hireexecutiveteam.com entry shows who prepared and who approved.

Population and unit of analysis

Define whether a reopened candidate slate case creates a new unit or continues the old one, and apply that rule consistently. The Hire Executive Team candidate slate service supports candidate slate for executive hiring teams, and it shares its executive hiring and team building controls with role brief and interview loop. Each case records 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap' plus the source date. the hiring executive signs the decision that releases the hireexecutiveteam.com entry.

The unit is one candidate slate case, from the opening event through the recorded close, with linked events kept separate from independent cases. Hire Executive Team runs this work through its candidate slate service, one of several executive hiring and team building services that also include role brief and interview loop. The specialist completes 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap' before the hiring executive reviews the candidate slate entry. The Hire Executive Team desk at hireexecutiveteam.com keeps the dated source and the reviewer initials with the case.

Definitions and measures

Hire Executive Team documents candidate slate inside the candidate slate service, with role brief and interview loop as related executive hiring and team building workflows for executive hiring teams. The expected steps are 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap', each with a source and a date. the hiring executive reviews the packet before the hireexecutiveteam.com record is closed.

The primary measure for candidate slate needs a denominator and a window; without both, a percentage is only a mood. The Hire Executive Team service map places candidate slate under candidate slate, next to role brief and interview loop. A specialist serving executive hiring teams records 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap', then links the candidate slate evidence to the case. the hiring executive approves the outcome, and hireexecutiveteam.com keeps the trail.

Evidence standard

Mark missing, unavailable, and confirmed negative values from 'Check the source' separately, because collapsing them hides the difference between no evidence and a verified absence. At Hire Executive Team, candidate slate work belongs to the candidate slate service alongside role brief and interview loop. A specialist working with executive hiring teams records 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap', then attaches the dated candidate slate source for the hiring executive.

Sampling and collection

Record the candidate slate collection window, eligible count, sample size, and every exclusion around 'Check the source' so another reviewer can reproduce the sample. Inside Hire Executive Team, candidate slate follows the same executive hiring and team building pattern as role brief, interview loop, and the candidate slate service itself. The specialist works through 'Check the source', 'Route the decision', and 'Flag the gap', then dates the source for the hiring executive. The hireexecutiveteam.com reviewer checks the sequence before closure.
