Interview Central is a dedicated interface within SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management designed to streamline the interview feedback process. Its primary function is to allow interviewers to provide structured evaluations of candidates. This includes viewing the candidate's profile and resume, assessing them against specific competencies tied to the job requisition, assigning a rating for each competency, adding comments, and providing an overall hiring recommendation. This structured approach ensures consistent and comparable feedback from all interviewers.

A. Candidates can be moved to another status.

This action is performed by recruiters or hiring managers on the application workbench or pipeline, not directly within the Interview Central interface, which is focused solely on feedback collection.

B. The interviewer can extend the Offer Letter.

Extending an offer is a separate, formal process managed through the Offer Approval and Offer Letter functionalities, typically handled by a recruiter after all feedback and approvals are complete.

D. The recruiter can invite the candidate to apply.

This is a sourcing or Candidate Relationship Management (CRM) activity that occurs before a candidate has an active application for the interview stage. Interview Central is used post-application.
