How We Evaluate

RoleSignal uses a multi-dimensional evaluation system designed to give you specific, actionable feedback—not just a single score.

Our Philosophy

Interview performance isn't one-dimensional. A candidate might excel at technical accuracy but struggle to communicate their ideas clearly. Another might be a great communicator but miss key technical considerations.

That's why RoleSignal evaluates your performance across multiple dimensions. This approach helps you understand not just how well you did overall, but specifically where you're strong and where you can improve.

We don't believe in arbitrary scores or rankings. The goal is to give you feedback you can actually use to get better at interviewing.

  • Developing and refining solutions systematically

Technical Knowledge

Depth and accuracy of technical understanding

  • Correct application of concepts and principles
  • Understanding of trade-offs and limitations
  • Awareness of best practices and patterns
  • Ability to explain technical decisions

Communication

Clarity and effectiveness of your explanations

  • Organizing thoughts logically
  • Using appropriate terminology
  • Explaining complex ideas simply
  • Responding to questions directly

Structure and Clarity

Organization and coherence of responses

  • Clear beginning, middle, and end

What "Actionable Feedback" Means

Not This

"Your answer was okay but could be better."

This Instead

"When discussing the caching approach, you jumped to the solution before explaining the problem you were solving. Try starting with the bottleneck you identified, then walk through why caching addresses it, and finally describe your specific implementation."

The difference is specificity. Good feedback points to a particular moment, identifies what could change, and suggests how to change it. That's what RoleSignal aims to provide.

How to Use Your Feedback

1

Read the full transcript

See exactly what you said. Often you'll notice things yourself before reading the feedback.

2

Review each dimension

Look at where you scored well and where you didn't. Focus on patterns, not individual scores.

3

Pick one thing to work on

Don't try to fix everything at once. Choose the most impactful area and focus your next session on it.

4

Practice again

Run another session with your focus area in mind. Compare feedback to see if you're improving.
