158 Hirevue Testimonials

“Modern Hire combines the power of interview technology and predictive assessment while keeping the candidate experience a key customer priority.”

“In previous years, students needed to wait in line for hours to get a chance for a 5 minute interview. Now, we bring iPads to Career Fairs, students simply need to answer 2-3 general questions, and we follow up with relevant job opportunities. With HireVue, we can consider every interested student, not just those who get in line first.”

“On-demand phone interviewing is a big selling point. I’m offering candidates an opportunity to interview on their own time, when it works for them. I also get candidate responses much faster. On average, I send out 60 to 70 interview invites each week. I’ll have candidates to review the next day, and within a week, I have about 25 candidates to review. I would never connect with 25 candidates in a week over the phone, I just wouldn’t.”

"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.”

“If we didn’t use video interviewing, we would have interviewed candidates face-to-face, which would be nightmarish to coordinate so many candidates’ and interviewers’ schedules not to mention the time constraints of recruiting that amount of candidates within two months.”

“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.”

“Trying to filter through over 150 graduate applications can not only be time-consuming but extremely difficult to judge the quality of candidates without much experience. HireVue allowed me to ask all the candidates some simple video interview questions, assess them across a range of gamification activities, and gain assistance from the AI ranking system to determine who we would bring into our assessment centre. Without HireVue the process would have taken weeks to sort through rather than a few days and we were able to hire 8 incredible graduates.”

“Our hiring managers enjoy the flexibility of being able to view interviews around their work commitments and various rosters. They can log in from their mobile device or computer to review shortlisted candidates and add their comments. It also facilitates the same selection panel for the selection and appointment of a candidate."

“We see our candidates as customers, and we want to serve them in the best way possible.”

“Candidates enjoy the flexibility of being able to complete the interview in their own time. Many candidates are shift workers in healthcare, and attending an interview during our office hours may be difficult for them. Also, candidates in senior positions may have limited time during the day to complete a phone screening or attend first-round interviews.”

“HireVue has completely transformed our ability to move at pace and scale in a highly competitive market. With circa 250,000 applications through 60 recruiters – the bottleneck was palpable to get to 5,000 hires. We have been able to deliver candidate convenience, encourage self-scheduling and reduce review time by 35%.”
