Executive Summary
PyjamaHR enables you to generate comprehensive candidate reports—including AI interview videos—and share them securely with stakeholders who may not have access to the platform. This article explains how to generate, download, and distribute these reports safely, ensuring sensitive information is protected and your stakeholders receive all necessary details, including full-stitched interview videos.
Detailed Overview
Sharing candidate reports with external stakeholders (such as leadership teams or hiring managers outside your organization) is a common requirement in recruitment workflows. PyjamaHR provides robust tools to generate detailed reports, including interview summaries and video recordings, which can be securely shared as downloadable PDFs or attachments. This process is essential for:
Keeping decision-makers informed without granting them platform access
Ensuring compliance and confidentiality when transmitting sensitive candidate data
Providing a complete view of candidate assessments, including AI-stitched interview videos
Integration with Other Features:
Report sharing works seamlessly with PyjamaHR’s AI Interview module and candidate profile management. Reports can be generated directly from the candidate’s profile, ensuring all relevant data is included.
Business Impact:
Secure report sharing accelerates decision-making, maintains data privacy, and reduces the need for manual data extraction or risky ad-hoc sharing methods.
