Interview intelligence helping Recruitment Teams

6 Reasons TA Teams Are Thankful for Interview Intelligence

‍

The decision of whom to hire is one of the most important decisions that organizations make. Hiring processes can often be long and tedious for the recruiters as they involve interviewing several candidates one after the other in multiple rounds. This makes retention of information, consistency, and evidence gathering a challenge. However, TA Teams that use Interview Intelligence have it much easier. 

‍

Interview Intelligence refers to a tool or software that transforms the process into a transparent and evidence-led one through means such as recording, transcribing, live cues, suggestions, and post-interview analytics. It aids recruiters and hiring managers in conducting consistent, well-structured interviews which they can refer to once again as it is typically either recorded or transcribed. This improves the hiring accuracy, and candidate experience, reduces bias and screening time

‍

Here are 6 reasons TA Teams are thankful for Interview Intelligence:

‍

1. Better Quality of Candidates: Interview Intelligence tools provide analysis of the interview at the end for the recruiter to better evaluate the candidate. Additionally, with the tool recording/transcribing the interview, the interviewer no longer needs to make exhaustive notes and gets to focus more on getting to know the candidate better.

‍

2. Greater Efficiency and Collaboration:  Having a system that performs several redundant tasks and saves a lot of evaluation time improves the overall efficiency of the hiring process. It also increases collaboration and ownership between hiring managers, the TA team, and interviewers, who can now collaborate over data on a single platform. Hiring is a team sport, afterall!

‍

3. Ability to revisit the interview: Recruiters do not miss on small nuances of the interview as they can always revisit it through the recording or the transcript. These nuances in many cases can be the deciding factor.

‍

4. Consistent Interviews and Reduction in Bias: A well-structured process can help ensure consistency across factors such as interview duration, questions, and evaluation parameters. This helps in preventing unconscious biases from creeping in. 

‍

5. Better Candidate Experience: Since all aspects of the hiring processes are measured over time, the candidate experience improves across touch points. The organization understands what's working and what's not due to the data provided and can take measures to improve. With interview intelligence, brand touch points like glassdoor also show improved scores and positive feedback.

‍

6. Transparent Processes: Interview Intelligence tools record all the information. This can therefore be used by the senior members of the hiring team to ensure that the processes are being conducted in the best way possible.
