HireVue is a video, mobile and social recruiting platform.
It's an excellent platform for individuals who want to practice coding, improve their problem-solving skills, and enhance their programming knowledge. Organizations used this platform to hire. you can practice coding on the platform and strong your logical part but can't provide you with the experience of a live project where you build something for the real world.
HireVue was very well suited for my interviewing process with my current company for both my initial hire and my lateral move within the organization. It was very convenient given where I am geographically located to interview with our corporate office in Rhode Island. It provided the convenience of interviewing remotely for the opening posted.
It allows candidates to be recorded answering some initial interview questions and eliminates the need for recruiters or hiring manager to get on the phone or meet with them live.
It stores the video interviews in a manner that is easy to do, use, and recover.
It's also great to be able to record these interviews and then they can be shared with others on the team as needed for panel interview purposes, etc.
We have experienced some technical issues with the Live Interview feature. A lot of time it is because the user's computer settings are not set up correctly.
They are working on adding a feature that will allow you to edit the email templates. Hoping for this to be released soon as it is nice to have different communications sent out for different cites around the globe.
Customized CodeVues can be difficult to set up. Recommend having a technical employee help out with this. Would like to see more CodeVue questions added to the Question Library.
Though both are used as teaching mediums, hacker rank may be slightly better for beginners and is more generalized than the alternatives that would focus on just one aspect of computer science. However, they are not as large in terms of content as other products
Gray Peak doesn't even compare to HireVue. Where I think Gray Peak is a 2 or 3 out of 10, I am absolutely convinced that HireVue is a 10! Yes there are probably some tweaks for HireVue but this product is truly amazing. It impresses me each day with the volume that we are able to put through and how it is a complete convenience for ALL parties involved in the process
Time to fill has been reduced/ shortened since we are able to screen more candidates quicker.
Time to schedule has been shortened as candidates are able to self-schedule their own interviews with a hiring manager; no more chasing people through phone calls to coordinate multiple schedules.
Candidate reach has been greatly enhanced - we can reach more candidates than we ever could with traditional phone screening.
