The "Industries Helping Hands" team by this blog is providing you with the vision & advantages of the virtual interview in the modern recruitment & hiring process. It will also play a major role in the overall "IHHPET" assessment and hiring process.

Faster process: Virtual Interviews have done all that they needed to do and the sky is the limit. There's an enormous efficiency when you look at a 10-15 minute video interviewing with an hour and a half individual meeting.
Cost-Effective: The innovation works truly well. It saves money on the organization, time to hire, and cost of welcoming possibility for on-location an interview, in addition to its a truly smart selection of natural web innovation to a business procedure.
Greater Reach: Presently one can get to everybody in the meantime and Virtual Interviewing has empowered us to twofold the number of candidates we meet.
Transparency: Transparency is also can be maintained very efficiently through cutting-edge technologies available in the market today.
Cost Savings: Interviewing costs include everything from taking the candidate out to lunch on the day they come into the office to flying in interviewees and interviewers. Video conferencing solutions are more cost-effective and still provide a satisfactory amount of human interaction.
Scheduling Flexibility: To be respectful of candidates coming onsite to interview – especially if they are in school or currently have another job it’s best practice to have the candidate meet the entire interview panel in one day. Unfortunately, it can be extremely challenging to juggle the calendar availability of 4-7 interviewers in a 4-6 hour time span. Every time I schedule an onsite interview, I feel like I’m playing a stressful game of Tetris and my main goal is to line up each interview back to back seamlessly without large awkward breaks.
Brings consistency to the process: A benefit to conducting a virtual interview is having the ability to record the session. There are times where interviewers forget what the candidate said during the interview. Before the interview, inform the candidate they will be recorded and gain consent. After the interview, the interviewer can go back through the interview recording to gather notes and make final decisions.
Eliminates in-person interview stress: Job interviewing can be anxiety-filled for many people. The high level of anxiety around interviewing can make it difficult to communicate clearly in the interview and even sabotage the candidate’s chances of landing the job. Virtual interviewing eliminates some of the unnecessary added stress like picking out the right attire, getting stuck in traffic, finding parking, or potentially spilling coffee on themselves during the interview. Interviewing virtually enables candidates to interview from a comfortable space and bring their best foot forward.
Expands the candidate pool: Many candidates are hesitant to travel for job interviews even if they fully intend to move to the city where the office is located because it’s a lot of money to put on the line for something that may not happen. Not all companies will pay to fly candidates out to interview and if they don’t, the burden is left on the candidate to front the money. With virtual interviewing, candidates can fully vet companies from the comfort of their own home, secure the job offer and sign on without spending a dime on travel costs during the recruiting process.
Reduce time-to-fill: Time-to-fill is a very important metric to track in recruiting. Knowing how long it takes to fill a role informs the business on things like how difficult the role is to fill, how organized the recruiting process is and how cooperative the interview team is in clearing schedules for interviews. Most recruiters would attest, onsite interview dates are often pushed out and delayed because the interviewers are too busy to squeeze in interviews. With virtual interviewing, scheduling can be more flexible so it’s easier to fast track candidate virtual interview dates. Getting candidates in front of the interview panel faster will yield quicker hiring decisions so candidates can be onboarded faster and therefore reducing the time-to-fill metric.
