The Future of Live Video Interviews For Recruitment

According to the Aberdeen Group's talent acquisition survey, "live video interviewing" was seen by 68% of the respondents as a key HR capability, far ahead of "recording live interviews", which ranked second with 19%. Although the numbers show that HR professionals value interviewing candidates with live video, it should not mask the roadblocks that both parties may encounter when using this approach. Poor video quality or a lack of integration can transform a simple interview into an unbearable experience. To help avoid common pitfalls when choosing a live video solution, here are five requirements to look for: 1. Live video should accurately emulate an in-person interview. 2. Live video calls should be established in a few seconds. 3. Live video should empower real-time collaboration. 4. Live video should be enterprise-grade. 5. Live video should be integrated into a recruiter's workflow.
