One-Way Video Interview

Spark Hire introduces two options on how recruiters and HR staff conduct interviews to come up with a shortlist of candidates. One of these options is referred to as one-way video interview. In this option, candidates self-record their answers to interview questions. They can create video interviews using a computer with a webcam or through Spark Hire mobile apps in case a webcam is not available.

Video Interview Control and Restriction

Video interviews are produced based on the requirements specified by the HR department or recruitment team. Hence, users will be able to create sets of interview questions that candidates need to answer in their video interviews. They can also indicate how long the answers of the candidates can be, how many times they can attempt to answer the questions, and how long they can think before recording their answers.

Conduct Interviews From Web Browser

The sets of interview questions can be saved as templates for similar interviews in the future, allowing users to be consistent in conducting interviews using this particular option. In addition, candidates can create video interviews whenever they are available, providing them flexibility in choosing a time or schedule they are most comfortable with.

Live Video Interview

The other interview option offered by Spark Hire is called live video interview. Here, the HR staff or recruiter conducts real-time video interviews with the candidates through a web browser. In this option, users need not to download and install desktop applications or any applications that have a video chat functionality. They can also record live video interviews while they are conducting them. In addition, users can ask assistance from Spark Hire’s support team which is built to offer help to ensure that settings are configured properly for the staff and the candidates before the interview.

Interview Evaluation

Since the purpose of video interviews, whether live or self-recorded, is to quickly shortlist candidates, Spark Hire offers powerful functionalities which enable users to easily evaluate video interviews and determine the candidates who will advance to the next stage of the hiring process.

Rates and Comments

Users can shortlist their candidates by rating their video interviews. They can rate video interviews using a 5-star scale. Moreover, video interviews can be shared with the other members of the recruitment team, allowing them to provide their own ratings. Hence, a team rating will determine which candidates will be shortlisted. In addition to ratings, users will also be able to post their comments for video interviews.

Video Interview Tags

Spark Hire also provides a functionality which allows users to document the reasons some candidates won’t be able to advance to the next round or stage of their hiring process. They just simply have to select the reason from a drop-down list. This list is customizable, so users can add as many reasons as they want. The platform, moreover, enables users to send email to rejected candidates. This helps them explain to their candidates why they are not qualified for the next round of the hiring process, providing them with a learning experience they can use positively for future job opportunities.
