Overview

Wizehire helps you quickly identify top candidates using DISC+ insights and Talent Match.

Instead of reviewing every application manually, you’ll see which candidates are the strongest fit, right from your job dashboard.


How applicants are ranked

Wizehire evaluates candidates based on:

  • their DISC+ profile (behavioral fit)

  • their screening question responses (skills and experience)

These signals are combined to determine how well a candidate aligns with your role.

💡 Helpful note: This is often shown as Talent Match or candidate fit insights throughout your dashboard.


Where to see candidate fit

You can view fit insights directly in your job dashboard:

  • on the candidate card

  • by hovering to see more detailed match information

  • across any stage, not just recommended candidates

  • reduce time spent reviewing low-fit candidates

  • make faster, more confident hiring decisions

💡 Helpful note: Scout provides guidance, but you remain in control of final decisions.


Filter and move faster

You can use fit insights alongside your workflow to:

  • prioritize which candidates to review first

  • move strong candidates forward quickly

  • stay organized as your applicant pool grows


Why this matters

In today’s hiring environment, speed and clarity matter.

Having early insight into candidate fit helps you:

  • avoid decision fatigue

  • reduce second-guessing

  • connect with top candidates before they’re gone
