Overview
Gem's Reviews feature allows you to submit candidate review requests. On the receiving end, your colleagues (ex. Hiring Managers) will receive your request and can leave a ✖️ (pass, don't move forwards), ✔️ (accept, move forwards), or ✮ (exceptional candidate) decision, as well as write their notes about the candidate.
To see reviews that are waiting on you, as well as your review requests that are waiting on others, visit your Reviews page.
Requesting Reviews
You can submit candidates for review to a teammate directly from your Gem Project.
Select the candidate(s) that you wish to submit a review request for. Click Actions and select Request Review.
Add the reviewer's email address and write a quick note (optional). Once you're done, click Send Request.
Reviewing Candidates
Reviewers will get an email notification with your note and a link to the candidates' Gem profile(s) they have to review. Clicking the provided review link directs a reviewer to log into Gem and takes them to their Reviews page.
Note: When creating a new Gem account through a review request, we won’t require reviewers to install the Gem Chrome extension or walk them through our normal new user onboarding flow. This is by design, as most reviewers are typically in roles that don't require in-depth use of Gem (ex. Hiring Managers) and don't generally need our extension or product tutorials.
Click Review to review candidates individually. For multiple candidates, clicking Review All starts a lightweight review flow where your reviewer can leave an optional note and assign one of 3 decisions: ✖️ (pass), ✔️ (accept), or ✮ (star)
Review Results
After the review is completed and submitted, you can revisit your Gem Project and see the review status and notes.
-
Under the Reviews column, hover over the note icon to see any written feedback.
-
Hover over the ✖️ (pass), ✔️ (accept), or ✮ (star) icons to see the name of the reviewer that submitted the decision.
-
Performing outreach: By clicking the Reminder column label, you can sort candidates by their review status. From here, you can select everyone with an ✔️ (accept) or ✮ (star) decision and add them directly to a Gem Sequence by clicking Add to Sequence.
