How can additional information about an interview be stored in Salesforce?

Building a custom object to reference the interview's GUID is an effective way to store additional information about an interview in Salesforce. This method allows for a direct association between the stored information and the specific interview instance through its unique identifier (GUID). Custom objects provide flexibility and scalability, enabling users to tailor data fields to capture exactly what is needed for their specific requirements, such as interview notes, candidate feedback, and assessment scores.

Additionally, the relationship established through the GUID ensures that the data integrity is maintained, as each piece of information is linked to a specific record, allowing for easier retrieval and reporting on interview-related data. This approach not only enhances organization within Salesforce but also ensures that related information can be accessed seamlessly as needed.

While other methods, such as attaching data directly to a flow or using standard objects, may seem viable, they often lack the specificity and customization that a dedicated custom object offers. Custom objects are particularly useful when organizations need to track complex data relationships or when a standard object does not suffice for the required information.
