Overall Satisfaction with HireVue

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

HireVue was adopted by our whole organization and I like the fact that you can ask programming questions and filter out candidates before actually doing a formal interview with them.

I felt like it was well suited to ask programming questions and have the interviewee respond within a certain amount of time. I am not a big fan of the responses that I have gotten from people talking into the camera.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Providing an opportunity to view potential employees and see their strengths in programming.

Cons

I am not sure how to address this, but there are a few people that just don't feel comfortable talking to a camera to be recorded. If there was a way to help those types of people that would be awesome.
Some of the javascript programming is a bit cumbersome.
Some people are afraid of having a HireVue, and refuse to do it and aren't considered for working at our company even if they might be qualified.

Return on Investment

I feel like we have been able to get better qualified candidates for most of our interviews.

Alternatives Considered

They haven't used anything that competes.

Other Software Used

Visual Studio.NET, Progress Sitefinity

Thanks for reviewing! I'm glad that you like using CodeVue! CodeVue is always up to date and checked on regularly. You can add and track new product ideas and requests anytime, as well as view and vote on other customers request too in The Hub (our customer community): http://hir.vu/1n6m0sU. Unfortunately not everyone is going to be comfortable doing webcam interviews, and there is not much that anyone can do about it. We offer an unlimited number of practice questions before each and every interview to help candidates get more comfortable. We highly suggest all candidates do as many practice questions as they need to. If a candidate gets cold feet, please have them call our 24/7 Support team - they have fantastic advice that might help someone get the courage they need to continue with their interview. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, etc. feel free to call us as well! (800) 655-4106 we are also available through chat and email: try.hirevue.com/contact/ - Nicole

Enjoy hirevue, but only use certain portions of it
