Why Great Recruiting Starts Before the Job Is Posted

For: Talent Acquisition Partners and In-House Recruiters

You've seen it too many times.

The hiring manager says, "I'll know it when I see it." They can't define the role. They send over a list of tasks or copy an old job description. And then they expect magic.

You're left chasing profiles, screening endlessly, and trying to read minds in the process.

The real problem? Hiring doesn't break at the sourcing stage. It breaks at the definition stage.

The Problem: No Clear Definition of "Good"

When a role isn't clearly defined, the whole hiring process is built on shaky ground.

You end up with:

  • Vague job descriptions that don't reflect reality
  • Misalignment between hiring teams and recruiters
  • Interviews that lack structure and consistency
  • Feedback that's based on gut feel, not data

You're doing your best with what you're given. But you shouldn't have to translate guesses into good hires.

The Shift: Clarity Before Candidates

Klareda brings structure to the first step of hiring—defining the role.

It helps hiring managers get clear on:

  • The mission of the role
  • The outcomes it's responsible for
  • The competencies that predict success

Once that's in place, Klareda generates:

  • Structured interview questions and follow-ups
  • Interview flows and assessment plans
  • Scorecards to bring consistency to feedback
  • Accurate, compelling job descriptions and ads
  • A Chrome extension for use during live interviews
  • ATS integration to streamline workflows

Why Talent Teams Love Klareda

Klareda doesn't replace your expertise—it strengthens it.

It makes hiring managers clearer, more accountable, and easier to collaborate with. It creates alignment before sourcing starts. And it gives you sharper tools to engage, assess, and select candidates.

You spend less time herding cats and more time delivering great hires.

It's already being used by teams at DKB, Sparetech, and Babble. And it's built to slot into whatever tools and systems you already use.
