"Just seeing how quickly this all manifested was absolutely incredible. There were times we’d send out interview requests, and by the time we got back into the system, we already had responses. Sometimes you wait a week just to schedule an interview, but with Montage, we could get completed interviews back within a matter of hours.”
“We no longer base everything on the CVs. Automated Video Interviews give candidates the chance to better express themselves and that gives us a clearer picture as to who to engage for the next step. Flexibility was another bonus, being able to watch the interviews at our own pace.”
“To achieve our vision of making the financial lives of our customers better, we need to ensure we are selecting top talent into the organization. This assessment is essential in helping us identify the individuals who will perform successfully and provide exceptional customer service. The Universal Fit Pre-Hire Assessment ultimately allows us to improve the candidate experience, increase new hire retention and improve on-the-job performance.”
“We have introduced Video Interviewing for all vacancies in the Irish firm. Overall it has provided better alignment with HR and the business. We selected Modern Hire over several vendors because they had a proven digital platform with Plug and Play Technology. Being able to brand our account to reflect our messaging and EVP and its integration with the Taleo ATS were also factors in our decision.”
“The ability to contact our talent database at scale to deliver an engaging experience far exceeded our expectations compared to our traditional approach of using marketing automation tools. Its intelligent, multilingual, and automated conversational capabilities enabled us to rapidly execute the project in less than 4 weeks and helped uncover thousands of new candidates who are ready to explore new job opportunities.”
“For us, [HireVue’s] texting solution was an invaluable resource and vital lifeline to our employees during a challenging, extended shut down period. Every message sent out would get hundreds of ‘thank you’s.’ I’m looking forward to sending the ‘we are open’ message.”
“Using Sonru has definitely helped push Lendlease’s image into more of an innovative type company. We have recruited graduates in the past and used the same process time after time. Since having used Sonru, we’ve been able to highlight to the candidates that we are moving with the industry, that we are adapting to new technology.”
“Perisher brings in some 600 new staff as part of its 1300 seasonal workforce each year, with candidates for these roles coming from all over Australia and internationally. We needed a system able to accommodate the varying times that candidates were available to interview and when managers could review them.”
“It Sonru really makes Tiger Brands appear to be innovative. Not many companies in South Africa are using this tool so we’re viewed in the market as a technologically advanced company which we think is really important.”
"One of the biggest benefits that the business saw was around reducing unconscious bias. HireVue has helped reduce bias by 90% from the hiring process, which has contributed to achieving a 50 / 50 hiring split for gender across all levels of the business so far in 2021. Previously, this was 70 / 30 and male dominated. The Executive Committee is now also very diverse with a 50 / 50 gender split. This really helps other people in the business aspire to be what they can see.”
“Since going live with HireVue in June 2020 across our business, our average time-to-hire has reduced from over 40 days to 23 days. This achievement is even more impressive given we filled double the number of roles than the previous year. Without HireVue as a platform we simply would not have been able to handle the role volume that we experienced after Covid. The reduction in our time-to-hire has allowed us to remain competitive in a very tight job market. We have also seen a large reduction in the time that the Talent Acquisition team spends screening candidates. With the use of HireVue we have been able to create an almost 60% reduction in the time spent screening candidates across Sales and Corporate roles, whilst maintaining a strong candidate satisfaction score throughout the process.”
“I love HireVue as it allows us to get a sense of the candidates before inviting them along to an interview. We can easily gain an indication of their experience and how they respond to situations to determine if they’re a good fit for the role. It ensures that we only go to the interview stage for high quality candidates, making the interviews that we do have more meaningful.”
“The successful recruitment campaign meant that more than 5OO first-round interviews were required with Sonru’s video interview technology identified as the best way to shortlist candidates. This technology proved to be incredibly beneficial not only for our managers who could review the video interviews around their busy schedules, including via their phone but also for the candidates themselves.”
“Leading a team of nearly 50 people can be challenging in itself, add to the mix recruiting and you have quite the conundrum. What HireVue gives me is time back in my day which can be dedicated to potential candidates rather than sifting through all applicants unnecessarily.”
“Having such an agile recruitment process has meant we have a skilled and experienced talent pool to ensure we employ the best candidate for each position. The video interviews are accessible for two years, which allows our managers to revisit candidates for future recruitment opportunities.”
