The virtual interviewing module within Harver lets you easily implement an asynchronous video interview in your preselection process. Upload your own videos or ask written questions and see how candidates answer them in recorded video responses.
Virtual interviewing at Harver does not make use of automated decision-making or facial and/or micro-expression analysis technology. The video interview module is a qualitative add-on in addition to quantitative data obtained from other Harver assessments.
Within this article we will go through:
What this module is used for and how it works
Speed up your screening
See more candidates in less time with the Virtual Interviewing module. Replace the standard laborious phone screening stage and allow candidates to be interviewed at every hour of the day.
Collaborate on the hiring process
Share the recorded responses with all team members involved and collaborate on the hiring process. That way, you get multiple opinions and screen more efficiently and effectively.
Ensure fairness through consistency
Ask the same set of questions to all job candidates and compare and evaluate their answers consistently. Every candidate gets a fair shot, and you can get a real sense for who they are in a quick and convenient way.
How it works
There are two parts to the Virtual Interview module. The first part is the question(s) that you ask. You can do this by uploading a video of your own, by writing your question in text, or a combination of the two.
The second part of the Virtual Interview module is where the candidate records themselves and gives an answer. Within the setup of the module, you can adjust the settings to set things like a maximum time limit and if the candidate can re-record.
