    Why Hiring Still Feels Like Guesswork (And How to Fix It)

    If you've ever struggled to define a role before hiring, especially one you've never hired for before, you're not alone.

    Hiring managers across industries tell me the same thing: "I know what I'm looking for… I just can't put it into words."

    And when the role isn't clearly defined, the rest of the hiring process falls apart:

    • You start with vague or recycled job descriptions
    • You rely on instinct in interviews
    • You struggle to align with your recruiter or HR partner
    • You waste time talking to the wrong candidates

    Hiring becomes reactive, inefficient, and full of guesswork.

    But it doesn't have to be.

    The Hidden Hiring Problem: Lack of Role Clarity

    Most job descriptions are lists of skills, tasks, and responsibilities. They describe activity, not impact. They don't define success. They don't guide your judgment in interviews.

    Without role clarity, you can't make strong hiring decisions. You default to gut feel. You lose alignment across the team. You miss top candidates because you're not clear on what "good" actually looks like.

    A Better Way: Structure Before Sourcing

    This is where Klareda comes in. Klareda helps hiring managers bring clarity to the start of the hiring process.

    You define:

    • The mission of the role
    • The outcomes that matter most
    • The competencies that drive performance

    Based on that, Klareda generates:

    • Structured interview questions (including follow-ups)
    • Progressive interview flows
    • Scorecards for better decision-making
    • Clear, role-specific job descriptions and job ads

    It also includes a Chrome extension and ATS integration so you can stay focused without jumping between tools.

    Designed for Hiring Managers

    Klareda isn't a generic HR tool. It's built for leaders who need to hire well without getting buried in process.

    You get:

    • Fewer interviews with better candidates
    • More alignment with your recruiter or people partner
    • Stronger decisions based on defined criteria

    It works fast. It's built around how managers actually think. And it's already in use by companies like DKB, Sparetech, and Endeavour.
