Interview Process Tracker

The useful distinction

An interview tracker is most useful when it shows the process as a sequence of commitments: who you will meet, what to prepare and what happens afterwards.

A process tracker should preserve uncertainty where it exists instead of filling gaps with assumptions.

A practical workflow

Use the following as a working sequence, then adapt it to the companies and conversations in front of you.

• Name each stage and its format
• Record participants and questions while they are fresh
• Add follow-up and decision checkpoints

Keep the system workable

Keep one clear record for the opportunity, its current stage, the people involved and the next action. That gives you enough structure to return to the search without adding ceremony.

Candidate keeps this context together so a useful update after an application, conversation or exercise does not need to be copied across several tools.
