HireVue Facilitates Video Interviews in More than 100 Countries
SALT LAKE CITY - (BUSINESS WIRE) - HireVue, the leading provider of global video interviewing solutions,
today announced that they have now facilitated video interviews for
customers in 105 countries including such locations as Papua New Guinea,
Chad, Burkina Faso. Ethiopia, Oman, and Brazil. Global companies use
HireVue to perform both Live interviews where the candidate interacts
with an interviewer and Virtual interviews where the candidate responds
to pre-defined questions. Both types can be performed remotely and can
be recorded and stored in the proprietary HireVue system for review by
hiring managers on their own time and from any location around the
globe. Because the only technology required to use HireVue is a webcam
and an Internet connected computer HireVue is a cost effective and time
saving way for employers to aggregate feedback and other information
about candidates around the globe. As a result, global companies are
able to make quicker, more efficient hiring decisions without regard to
time zones and locations and without spending unnecessary time and money
due to travel and interview related coordination and logistics.
"As a global company, Rio Tinto needs to source talent from all over the
world," says Andrew Slentz, VP of People for the international mining
group. "Innovative solutions like HireVue allow us to quickly place
prospective employees in front of hiring managers anywhere in the world
- with minimal expense and logistical effort. HireVue offers us great
flexibility and a competitive edge in the crucial first stages of
candidate interaction and attraction."
HireVue makes it easy for companies to interview globally by handling
all of the logistics necessary to ship webcams and branded employment
materials to candidates and hiring managers. HireVue will also train
users remotely on the equipment and offers customers technical support
24 hours per day, 7 days a week for 365 days each year. Support is
provided in as many as 5 languages including French, Spanish and
Russian. Additionally, the HireVue interface supports localization so
that candidates can comfortably respond to questions in their native
language.
"HireVue is experiencing tremendous growth," says Mark Newman, CEO and
co-founder of HireVue. "A large part of our growth comes from both
companies headquartered overseas as well as US-based companies with
worldwide operations. This is not by chance. We've made a significant
investment in localization technology and global support because we
understand the inherent value of video interviewing for international
business. Crossing the 100-country mark is an exciting milestone for
HireVue. We look forward with great anticipation to adding many more to
the list!"
