Leave a Review HireVue for Candidates
Poor setup
The way the app runs you don't submit your interview as one final product but for some reason as individual pieces. There is no reviewing the final product and the next button is also the submit button. I have never seen an online resume or application where when you go to the next page it submits the prior. This is not common practice and no one should have to wonder if they can’t finish their work and look at the whole picture. Also if your service is to act as a medium for interviews why would you choose to go against the common practice? Why make your experience and specific style a unique challenge that interviewees have to add to their interview preparations?
Further I believe little real effort was made to account for this and ensure people are made aware. Mentioning it in a body of text within one link on you FAQ page on the tech help page is to the point of devious.Show lesspsu2357
Gets the job done, but impersonal.
I suppose we will all be interviewing in this format so we should get used to it. The app does the basics without any extras that don’t need to be there. That being said, things like this are impersonal and make the interview process more nerve-wracking than something in person- “practice” questions, countdown timers and the ability to review your answers are only there to irritate and frazzle.
Scheduled phone interviews and video calls where you speak and meet someone in or hired by the company don’t give you so much time to wonder if that job on the other end of this impersonal app is actually worth it. Anyone not recognizing this fact are on the other end watching their applicants squirm and whine as they sit and chuckle.Show lessZorblaz
Great Way to Interview
These developers have done a superb job in developing a great service for both the person being interviewed as well as the company hiring!! You are given enough information on how the process works and even can take breaks between interview questions to grab a drink of water or such to feel refreshed for each and every question! Highly recommend.Show lessOUSooner4Life
Just like real life, only virtual.
I really enjoyed the video interview. Like being there in person. You have adequate time once the questions are asked to give and explain your answer. Video is a great way to show who you are, how you respond and articulate to their questions. Just what type of person you are. A nice mix of video, audio and typing made for a comfortable interview.Show lessmmi. overcomer
Great app imitating the feel of a real interview
This app is great and definitely gave me enough time to practice, enough time to prepare for questions in the real interview and enough time to answer the question. Very easy to use making it user friendly even for those that lack technological use.arelimmartinez
This Artificial Intelligence has its own agenda
I met with the hiring manager of a large retail chain, he said I was what they were looking for and he would hire me right now but I had to be interviewed by this artificial intelligence app. I had good lighting, no background noise, I practiced, I got all dressed up as if it were a real human interviewing me and it came back "unqualified". The hiring manager called me and told me and said to take it again. I did it all over and got the same result. I have never been fired, held my jobs for years, received many merit raises and now I just wanted a part time job to supplement social security and this bot says I'm unqualified to put shoes on a shelf! I am not impressed with this mindless and inhuman technology.Show lesslikeynolikey
Love love love!
Love this app! It was easy and idiot proof... if any mistakes were made it was just me trying to get my answer across correctly. All companies need to use this before a real interview. Then they can really see how much the person loves what they do, and why they feel they should work for the company. Excellent app!Show lessStarsmiles67
Mirrors Reality; Shows Integrity
I liked the way that the online interview closely mirrored a real interview: you get one chance to answer a question and there are no do-overs. This makes the process clean and neat and keeps an interviewee from falling into an endless cycle of re-doing responses. It also gives the hiring committee a pretty accurate profile of what a candidate will do under pressure. I especially liked the (unlimited?)practice time—I only did 2 or 3 questions, but it was comforting to know there were more. I was able to quickly hone a process that worked for me—which includes taking note of the question do that I would make sure to answer it, and also to make quick notes so I would not freeze and forget once the camera “started rolling.” Great app. I’d highly recommend it as a hiring tool!
*Also, for the company (school district)that used this hiring tool for my interview: It shows that they are dedicated to equity and fairness by using the HireVue process. Oftentimes candidates feel that the decisions are made before interviews are held. This process builds trust and respect for the district. It shows integrity and thereby raises the standards for surrounding districts.Show lessJenny.ynnej
Cerner interview process
Super easy to use, love that I could do it all from my phone, and that I didn’t have to leave my house to do a job interview. How awesome is that? The questions were very general, but it’s also the initial interview, so I understand why they didn’t go into specific questions about my job as a tech.Arissa T
Why?
I honestly did not like this whole video interview I would rather be interviewed in person. Talking to my phone is not necessarily something I would like doing I’m a people person. Not everyone wants to sit somewhere quiet starring at a screen I understand you can simply make the video recording not show yourself but you can still see yourself all they do is put a sheer setting over you. Honestly thought it would be like face time or something but no. It really gives us candidates a relatively bad first impression. I thought it’s just lazy and apathetic.Show lessCdt19936
