Overall Satisfaction with HireVue

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use HireVue as our first round in the selection processes to screen for candidates that we would like to bring in for a first round face-to-face interview. Primarily, we utilize HireVue for our internship, and sales and call-center positions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Quick screening of candidates - less time managers & HR needs to spend on screening.
Ability for multiple managers / team members to review and score.
Easy to use.

Cons

Reminders sent out to candidates that they have a HireVue waiting to be completed would be nice.

Return on Investment

More serious candidates.
Quicker screening time.
Lower number of completions compared to traditional phone screenings.

Alternatives Considered

ApplicantPro

We use ApplicantPro for our ATS, their system is nice because it is integrated right into the ATS, where HireVue can not do this for us.

Other Software Used

ApplicantPro, DocuSign

Likelihood to Recommend

Depending on the company need, it may not be the first recommendation made. The completion rate of HireVue invitations sent out is relatively low, where you may have better luck with a more traditional phone screening.

HireVue Feature Ratings

Easy to use.
Quicker selection process time.
Ability for multiple people to review and score.

Innovative Uses

Get a feel for the personality of the candidate without meeting them.
How serious they take the process.

Future Planned Uses

Utilize the testing functions.
Utilize the product across more areas of the company.

Likelihood to Renew

The company is currently looking into other ATS systems, with that we aren't sure the need to continue to use HireVue.

Thanks for reviewing us! We appreciate your feedback and take it very seriously. We are happy that we are able to help you save time with recruiting. We understand that not everyone is comfortable with digital interviews. That's why we offer unlimited practice questions with each digital interview to make sure the candidates are comfortable and confident. We also have a 24/7 support team available through phone, email and chat if they (or you) have any questions. try.hirevue.com/contact/ We actually do have reminder emails, texts, and/or phone calls that can go out to candidates. There is a tab that is for "scheduled reminders" that you are able to edit. You can edit the message, and edit how you want the reminders to be sent out. There is a blue envelope icon next to each candidate - that is how you instantly send a reminder! Follow us on Twitter @HireVue, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn if you need assistance, or want to see some awesome HR content. - Nicole
