Why Ratio?
A complete structured-interviewing suite
Where other tools give you features, Ratio gives you best practice in action: build the kit, guide the interviewer, score every answer the same way, and compare candidates on the same criteria, in one workflow.
Two ways to run an interview
Most interview loops run on instinct and goodwill. Here is what changes when the structure is built in.
The usual interview
Structured, in Ratio
What decides
The usual interview: Interviewers form an impression in the first few minutes and spend the rest of the hour confirming it.
Structured, in Ratio: Every candidate is rated on the same skills, weighted for the role. The rating is the decision.
The questions
The usual interview: Each interviewer asks their own favourites, so no two candidates get the same interview.
Structured, in Ratio: One question per skill in every round, built from the job description, with follow-ups ready.
The scoring
The usual interview: A thumbs up or down, remembered differently by everyone in the debrief.
Structured, in Ratio: Four RATE prompts and a four-star rating under every question, the same for everyone.
Fairness
The usual interview: Confident talkers and people who remind the interviewer of themselves get the benefit of the doubt.
Structured, in Ratio: Same questions, same rubric. Candidates are compared on the work, not the rapport.
Defending the call
The usual interview: "We liked her more" is hard to explain to the hiring manager, and harder to explain to the candidate.
Structured, in Ratio: The ratings and notes behind every score sit on a scorecard you can share with anyone who signs off.
Across rounds
The usual interview: Every round starts over. The screener and the hiring manager measure different things.
Structured, in Ratio: Every round scores against the same skill model, so ratings roll up across rounds and interviewers.
Time
The usual interview: Prep is rushed, debriefs run long and the loop stalls while people wait for opinions.
Structured, in Ratio: The kit is built in minutes, scoring happens in the room and the roll-up is ready when the round ends.
How we build Ratio
People make the call
AI writes the kit. Your interviewers do the rating. Ratio adds the ratings up and never scores a candidate itself.
One workflow
Build, interview, score and compare in one place, on one set of skills. No stitching four tools together.
Honest about the research
Structured interviews are 2.2x more predictive than unstructured ones. That is the method. We do not claim it for Ratio.
Built by recruiters
Seventeen years of agency recruiting at Robert Half, Adecco and Frank Recruitment Group, with product and engineering co-founders.
“Hiring is becoming an AI arms race, with candidates and companies both optimizing for algorithms. Ratio is the rare tool I've seen that uses AI to support human judgment, not replace it.”
