# Weekly hiring digest emails

Intervieux sends a weekly digest email for each open job, covering new applicants, completed interviews, candidates who moved stage, and the top 3 new candidates that week, so a hiring manager stays current without logging into the pipeline.

Not everyone with a stake in a hire checks the pipeline daily, and not everyone should have to. A hiring manager who cares about one open role wants a Monday-morning summary of what happened, not a standing obligation to log in and scroll. The digest exists for exactly that person: one email, once a week, scoped to a single job.

## What it does

Each open job with digest activity gets its own weekly email, sent to whoever is subscribed to updates on that role. The email covers four things: how many new applicants came in, how many AI interviews were completed, which candidates changed pipeline stage, and a call-out of the top 3 new candidates from the week based on their interview scores. It reads as a status update someone can act on in under a minute, not a raw data export.

## How it works

1. **Activity accumulates over the week** — New applications, completed interviews, and stage changes are already being recorded on the job's pipeline as they happen through the week, so the digest has a full week of activity to summarize when it goes out.
2. **The digest compiles per job** — Rather than one email covering every open role at a company, each job generates its own digest, so a hiring manager tracking one role only sees that role's activity.
3. **Top candidates get called out by name** — The three highest-scoring new candidates from the week are surfaced directly in the email, based on their AI interview scores, so the reader knows immediately who is worth a closer look without opening the pipeline first.
4. **It goes out on a weekly cadence** — The digest arrives once a week rather than daily, matching how often most hiring stakeholders actually want to check in on a role that is not moving urgently fast.

## Four sections, one email

New applicants gives the raw volume for the week. Completed interviews shows how many of those applicants actually finished the AI screening. Stage movements shows who advanced or dropped out. Top 3 new candidates gives the reader a shortcut straight to who matters most, without reading the rest.

## Built for the person who is not in the pipeline daily

A hiring manager, a department head, or a client watching a search does not need pipeline access to stay informed. The digest brings the relevant summary to their inbox on a schedule instead of requiring a login habit.

## Sits alongside the branded email center

Digest delivery runs through the same branded email infrastructure used for other employer communications, with engagement tracking and suppression handling, so digest emails behave like the rest of a company's outbound communication rather than a separate system.

## Pairs with hygiene nudges to cover both directions

The digest reports what happened, new applicants, completed interviews, stage moves. Pipeline-hygiene nudges cover the opposite case, candidates who went stale or sat too long in one stage without anything happening to them at all. Together they give a hiring manager both sides of the picture without needing pipeline access to see either one.

## Who this is for

This is for anyone with a stake in a specific role who does not need or want daily pipeline access, a hiring manager waiting on updates, a department head who asked to be kept in the loop, or a recruiter who wants a written weekly record of what happened on a role without generating it by hand.

## Frequently asked questions

### How often does the digest send?

Once a week, per job. Each open role with activity generates its own digest rather than one combined email covering every role a company has open.

### What does the digest include?

New applicant counts, completed interview counts, candidates who changed pipeline stage, and a highlight of the top 3 new candidates from that week based on their AI interview scores.

### Who receives the hiring digest?

Whoever is subscribed to updates on that specific job, which typically includes the hiring manager and recruiter working the role, so the digest reaches the people actually making the decision.

### How are the top 3 candidates chosen?

By their AI interview scores from that week's completed interviews, so the digest surfaces the strongest new applicants without requiring the reader to compare candidates manually.

### Does the digest replace checking the pipeline entirely?

For someone who only needs a periodic update, often. For a recruiter actively working a role day to day, the digest is a weekly summary alongside the pipeline, not a substitute for the live view when action is actually needed.
