Video Interviewing has now become an essential part of the recruitment process. The world of work has changed for all of us. Where we work, how we interact with our colleagues and how we recruit.

We can’t just stop interviewing people! When you still need additional or replacement staff for your team, it’s important to make sure you get the very best person for the job. But at the same time, keeping everyone safe.

Here at Charterhouse, we are helping many companies interview and onboard remotely. With great success too! And now we are taking that one step further by offering video interviewing to all our clients. We like to call it Technology Enhanced Recruitment.

But it’s not just adhering to social distancing rules that makes video interviewing so attractive. There are many other benefits. Here’s our top 5 –

Pre-Screen Your Way

We know that you will always have criteria when it comes to selecting which candidates to interview. Video interviewing can really help you be confident that you are making the right decision. By using video technology, we can interview your shortlisted candidates, ask them your questions, record the answers and send you the interview.

No More Wasted Time

How many times have you selected someone for interview based on their CV, for the interview to not turn out as expected. By using video interviewing in your shortlisting process, you know that you are only selecting the best for you. You can now meet only perfect fit candidates who are right for your role. The hardest bit will be choosing which one to make an offer to!

Interview

Share your video interviews

Video interviewing is a great way to get feedback from other colleagues. Our technology allows you to share your interviews with colleagues for them to view at at time that works for them. No more having to co-ordinate busy diaries. Some companies we work with like to ask their teams to be involved in interviews too. Particularly with so much remote working, we’ve found that it really helps to bond a team when they feel involved in the hiring decisions. Video interviewing makes that simple!

Keep organised

Searching for CV’s in your InBox? Looking for feedback emails from colleagues? Our portal makes things easy. With everything in one place, you can access CV’s, video interviews and more. By using the portal, you can provide feedback in real time, both to other colleagues in the process and your recruiter. Access everything you need, when you need it.

Never lose talent again

Using video interviewing literally halves your time to recruit! Not only is this good news for your busy schedule. It also means that you can act quickly. When candidates are in multiple processes sometimes taking too long to move the interview process through can mean that you lose out on the best talent.
