Video interviewing: what’s new? This is a topic we’ve written about before, but as you can imagine, it continues to change. And grow.
There are the interviewers who set a time to talk with you via Zoom or Skype or similar, very convenient for all parties.
Then there are the systems that are automated: They show you a question, give you a few minutes to think about your answer, give you a moment to record, a moment to make edits, and then store them in the Cloud for all team members to see at a time that works for them.
Somewhat different, HireVue’s artificial intelligence (AI) gives it special abilities to not only record, but it evaluates tone of voice, pauses, eye contact, if the person is reciting something memorized versus begin spontaneous, and other factors. It then scores each candidate into one of three "buckets" -- top one third, middle one third, bottom one third. And the company is proud of how its algorithms neutralize bias based on gender or other factors.
