# Calibration

> Trace scores back to rubric versions and run controlled recalibration in Exterview, preserving auditability across evaluation and session revisions.

## Purpose

Exterview keeps evaluation behavior traceable through controlled configuration, versioned setup, and reviewed changes. The same inputs produce the same result, and you can trace every score back to the rules that produced it.

## How consistency is maintained

  <Card title="Versioned configuration" icon="code-branch">
    Every rubric change creates a new version — it never silently overwrites the last.

  <Card title="No retroactive drift" icon="lock">
    Prior results stay tied to the version they were scored under.

  <Card title="Full traceability" icon="magnifying-glass-chart">
    Every score traces back to the configuration version in effect at the time.

    Only authorized roles can change configuration, through Governance.

<Info>
  This is the compounding advantage: because your configuration is versioned and
  frozen, evaluations stay reproducible as your calibration improves — results
  don't drift underneath you.

## FAQs

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Will a candidate's score change if we update our rubric?">
    Not retroactively. Changes create a new version; prior results stay tied to the version they were scored under.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can we trace why a candidate scored the way they did?">
    Yes. Scores trace to the configuration version and rubric in effect at the
    time.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who can change the configuration?">
    Only authorized roles, through reviewed change control. See Governance.
