Automatically score candidates against custom rubrics with weighted criteria and get detailed AI-generated feedback on every application.
Where: Job Settings → Scorecard tab

How it works:
Define evaluation factors (communication, technical knowledge, culture fit, etc.)
Set weights and 5-level rubrics for each factor
Associate factors with specific questions

New applications receive automatic scores (1-5 scale) plus detailed feedback
Use cases: Prioritize top candidates faster, standardize evaluations across team members, identify strengths/concerns with AI-backed reasoning, reduce initial screening time.
Note: AI Scorecards count toward your plan's application limits. All new applications after scorecard setup will be automatically evaluated.
Take complete control of your candidate experience with instant redirects to your own thank you page.
What's New
- Skip Hirevire's Thank You Page - Send candidates directly to your custom URL immediately after they submit their application.
- No intermediate page, no delay.

How It Works
- In Job Settings → Thank you page, you'll find a new option: "Skip thank you page (redirect immediately)"
- When enabled, candidates land on your URL the moment they hit submit.
You can also include query parameters to personalize their experience:
- Application ID (id) - Track this submission in your system
- Applicant email (email) - Personalize the page with their information
- Job ID (job_id) - Route them to role-specific next steps
When a candidate applies, we now capture their IP address and display the inferred location (city/country) on the application card.
Where: Application detail page (hover to see IP). Toggle location visibility in Job Settings → Application columns.

Use cases: Spot geographic patterns, verify jurisdiction compliance, detect potential fraud (multiple applications from same IP).
Note: Only new applications will have location data shown.
Hiring can be seasonal. Instead of canceling and losing your data, you can now pause your Hirevire subscription and keep everything safe for up to 3 months.
What's new
Pause instead of cancel: Instead of cancelling, your subscription can now enter a 1 month, 2 month or 3 month pause state.
Keep your data: All jobs, candidates, responses, templates, and settings stay intact during the pause.
One-click reactivation: Unpause anytime before automatic renewal and resume right where you left off—no setup required.
Where
My Account → Manage Subscription → Cancel subscription (new pause options shown).
Reactivate via the link in reminder emails or by logging back in.
How it works
- Cancel your subscription.
- Choose your pause duration: 1 month, 2 months or 3 months.
- Billing stops immediately; data stays safe for the duration you selected.
- Reactivate anytime before the deadline to restore full access.
- After the pause window expires, all data is permanently deleted.
Notes
You cannot access your account during the pause (read-only mode coming soon).

Why
Help candidates discover your jobs directly in Google Search results. When you publish structured job postings to Google for Jobs, your roles appear in Google's dedicated job listings carousel—reaching more qualified candidates where they're already searching.
What's new
- One-click publishing to Google for Jobs
- Turn on "Publish on Google Jobs" in Job Settings → General, and your posting automatically includes the structured data markup Google needs.

- Optional job details for richer listings
- Add Employment Type (full-time, part-time, contract, etc.) and Include Annual Salary in the job editor. These fields populate Google's Rich Results and help your posting stand out.
- Preview how it looks
- See exactly how your job will appear in Google Search results before you publish.
Where
- Job editor (when creating or editing a job): new fields for Company Details (Employment Type, Salary toggle)

- Job Settings → General → Google for Jobs: enable publishing and preview your structured listing
How it works
- Create or edit a job in Hirevire.
- Fill in Company Details (employment type, optional salary).
- Go to Job Settings → General → scroll to "Google for Jobs."
- Check "Publish on Google Jobs" and click Preview to see how it will appear.
- Save. Google will crawl and index your job posting for display in Google Search results.
Notes
- Structured data is automatically generated using schema.org/JobPosting markup.
- Google typically indexes new postings within a few days; use Google's Rich Results Test to verify.
- You control which jobs are published; you can enable or disable per job.
Impact
- More visibility = more qualified applicants.
- Jobs published to Google for Jobs often see higher application rates from organic search traffic.
