How do I edit my Scorecard after launch, and why are my scores changing?

The Scorecard gives each candidate a score from 0 to 100. You can change it at any time, even after your hunt is live.


The Scorecard ranks candidates. The Brief finds them. To get more candidates or different profiles, change the Brief.


Open the Scorecard


  1. Open the hunt, then the Agent tab.
  2. Click the Scorecard card. The Edit Scorecard window opens.


Edit the criteria


Put the most important criterion at the top: drag the criteria to change their order. Then:


  1. Make a criterion required: click the pin on the left of the criterion.
  2. Add a criterion: click Add criterion, at the bottom of the window.
  3. Click Save when you're done.

To reword or remove a criterion, tell Umamy in the conversation. For example: "Remove the English criterion".


The percentages are calculated automatically, based on the order of the criteria and which ones are pinned. You don't need to enter them.


Required or optional?


  • Optional: the criterion counts in the score, without blocking the candidate.
  • Required: a candidate who doesn't meet it is not approved automatically.


Keep required criteria for your true deal-breakers (1 or 2). Making everything required empties your talent pool and can pause your search.


Why are my scores changing?


After each change, Umamy recalculates the score of every candidate in the hunt. Allow about 20 minutes for 2,000 profiles. In the meantime, the order of the list may move.


  • Group your changes rather than editing a criterion every five minutes.
  • Wait until the recalculation is done before judging the new scores.


Check the result


  1. Open the Candidates tab, then switch to the Table view (icon at the top right).
  2. Look at the Score column: your best profiles should be at the top.
  3. If not, tell Umamy: "this criterion penalizes the right profiles".

Keep approving or rejecting profiles with a short reason: that's what fine-tunes the ranking.


Still stuck?


  • The scores haven't changed: the recalculation may still be running. Check again in 20 to 30 minutes.
  • No new candidates anymore: you probably have too many required criteria. Unpin the least important ones.
  • A question: write to us from the chat bubble, we'll look at it with you.
