Overall Satisfaction with HireVue

HireVue is being used for technical screenings which are the primary factor when making a hire decision. Recordings of interviews allow teams to review an incoming software engineer to see how they might fit on the specific team.

Pros

  • The whiteboard feature is nice for sharing code samples.
  • The recording feature is nice although not something that is particularly unique.

Cons

  • Video quality is typically a struggle. I have experienced several interviews where the video is super choppy or is lost all together.
  • Not having the ability to screen share is a killer. That limitation alone makes looking at an alternative a real possibility.
  • I think just having a portal for all interview teams to work from has improved our process and caused less confusion.
We have used Zoom and GoToMeeting in the past. I was not a part of the group who evaluated a more specific product like this, so I can't speak to how it performs against products that are more directly aligned with it.
The lack of screen sharing can be a limiting factor for a large majority of people.

    Thanks for reviewing HireVue! We take all feedback very seriously and we are constantly working on improving features and content on our platform. When you refer to screen sharing, in what context are you referring to? CodeVue I assume? That is a fantastic request, and I will collaborate with our developers and work with them to get this feature added to HireVue. This would help many other customers as well! Since you are in the technical field, I am sure you are aware that connecting with an Ethernet cable would be more stable than a WiFi connection, therefore creating a smoother video and lower latency issues. If you ever run into any video and usability issues, please contact me directly at (801) 231-5146 or our 24/7 support team through phone, email or chat: try.hirevue.com/contact We are here to help! I invite you to join The Hub (our customer community): http://hir.vu/1n6m0sU where you can add and track new product requests and features at any time as well as view and vote on other customer's requests. Follow us on Twitter @HireVue, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn as well! - Nicole
