Q&A with International Recruitment Specialist, Maddie Evans:

Q:

What inspired you to look into video interviewing? Were there specific challenges in your day to day were you looking to solve with video interviewing?

A:

We wanted a platform that could enable us to offer a quicker requisition turnaround. We also hoped to provide more streamlined service to both candidates and clients. Ideally, we wanted something to help our clients buy in to candidates and gain a deeper understanding of who they are looking at as a person. We wanted an upgrade from just a CV when making decisions on shortlisting candidates for interviews.

Q:

Did Spark Hire replace a similar tool or is this the first time your team is using video interviewing?

A:

This is the first platform we have used.

Q:

What criteria did you have in mind for a video interviewing solution?

A:

Simplicity for both candidates and clients was essential for us, as well as a professional and visually appealing interface. We were also looking for a platform where clients and candidates could dial in from any type of device (computer, phone, tablet etc). Working worldwide across many different time zones, it was also important that our candidates and clients would have 24/7 support.

Q:

What made you choose Spark Hire as your video interviewing solution?

A:

Not only did Spark Hire's services meet all of our criteria, the high level of support provided by the team was second to none right from our first sales enquiry call. The level of initial and ongoing training provided, as well as their willingness to take on any recommendations and listen to what their clients want was encouraging. Their pricing structure is also extremely competitive.

What was getting started with Spark Hire like?

Quick and easy. The first training programme made up of three sessions were well structured and informative. We were able to get up and running in no time.

Q:

How has Spark Hire improved your hiring metrics and process?

A:

We are able to make placements quicker and easier than ever before.

Q:

What was your team’s recruiting process prior to using Spark Hire?
