revealing scores useful to candidates for some other reason not covered by that
Honestly, I hadn’t even thought of encouraging them to apply for future roles. My main thought regarding feedback is to allow them to improve. If you assess my work and then tell me the ways in which it falls short, that allows me to improve. I know that to work on. An example would be something like “Although your project plan covered a lot of the areas we requested, you didn’t explain your reasoning for the assumption you made. You estimated that a [THING] would cost $[AMOUNT], but as the reader I don’t know where you got that number. If you had been transparent about your reasoning, then you would have scored a bit higher.” or “We were looking for something more detailed, and your proposal was fairly vague. It lacked many of the specifics that we had requested in the prompt.”

Quantitative scoring doesn’t really give you that, though!
