What the Report Will Show

Score band → performance correlation

HireSignal score range (0–40, 40–60, 60–75, 75–85, 85–100) vs. average 6-month performance rating from hiring managers.

Dimension-level predictors

Which of the 11 dimensions best predicts real-world performance — broken down by role type and company size.

False positive / false negative rates

Where HireSignal overestimates or underestimates candidate quality — with the bias conditions that cause each.

Retention vs. score

12-month retention rates for engineers hired across different score bands. The primary headline metric.
