The guided scoring interface walks you through each rubric criterion one at a time, then asks for your overall recommendation. This is where you do the actual work of evaluating an application.
|
|
|
|
## Opening the Scoring Interface
|
|
|
|
Click any active card on your **My Reviews** dashboard (or its **Score Now** / **Continue** button). This opens the guided scoring page at `/review/[cohortSlug]/guided`.
|
|
|
|
The page has a two-column layout:
|
|
|
|
* **Left column** -- background information about the application
|
|
* **Right column** -- the scoring form
|
|
|
|
## Left Column: Background Tabs
|
|
|
|
The left column has several tabs depending on the stage:
|
|
|
|
* **Application** -- the applicant's submitted answers, attachments, and links. Eligibility questions are filtered out. File attachments can be downloaded; URLs open in a new tab.
|
|
* **Reviews** -- completed reviews from earlier stages (hidden on the first stage). If blind review is enabled, reviewer identities are hidden.
|
|
* **Assessments** -- self-assessment results from team members (second-round stages only).
|
|
* **Script** -- interview questions configured for this stage, rendered from markdown. Use this to guide your interview conversation.
|
|
* **Notes** -- a private text area for your own interview notes. These auto-save and are tied to the specific stage. Only you can see them.
|
|
|
|
## Right Column: Scoring
|
|
|
|
By default, you score one criterion at a time in **focused mode**. A **Show all** toggle in the upper right switches to a view where every criterion is visible at once.
|
|
|
|
In focused mode, each criterion shows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Criterion number and name** (e.g., "Criterion 1/5 -- Mission Alignment")
|
|
2. **Description** of what to evaluate
|
|
3. **Score options** -- either threshold cards with descriptions (click to select), named levels, or numeric buttons depending on how the rubric is configured
|
|
4. **Notes field** -- optional per-criterion notes
|
|
|
|
Use the **Next Criterion** and **Previous** buttons to navigate. You can also use the **Jump to...** dropdown to skip to any criterion. A criterion must be scored before you can advance to the next one.
|
|
|
|
### Keyboard Shortcuts
|
|
|
|
In focused mode, you can score without touching your mouse:
|
|
|
|
* **Up/Down arrows** -- navigate between threshold or level options
|
|
* **Enter** -- select the focused option and advance to the next criterion
|
|
* **Left/Right arrows** -- move to the previous or next criterion
|
|
* **Number keys (1-9)** -- set a numeric score directly (when simple score buttons are shown)
|
|
|
|
## Saving and Submitting
|
|
|
|
Your work auto-saves after you make a change. A "Saving..." / "Saved" indicator appears near the top right. You can also click **Save Draft** manually at any time.
|
|
|
|
Once all criteria are scored, click **Proceed to Recommendation** to move to the final screen. This shows your score summary, lets you select a recommendation, and provides space for overall notes.
|
|
|
|
Click **Submit Review** when you are ready. A confirmation dialog explains that submission locks your scores and notes. After confirming with **Submit & Lock**, your review is complete and you are redirected to the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
After submission, your scores and notes are locked. You can still change your recommendation if the review is for the application's current stage, but scores cannot be edited.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
For interview stages, the **Submit Review** button is disabled until after the interview has occurred. You can still prepare by reviewing the application and scoring criteria beforehand.
