What is myInterview?
myInterview is a one-way video interview platform that allows candidates to answer pre-defined interview questions in the initial screening stages - often in place of the traditional phone interview. The recruiter sends a link with a flow of questions creating a sequence of video snippets that form a video introduction The recruiter reviews the videos, shortlisting candidates and engaging hiring managers earlier in the process.
Why use Indeed?
Indeed is the #1 job site in the world, with over 250 million unique visitors every month. Plus it has a free option which is good for some limited-time exposure. Note that with the free posting option your job posting will move down the list as new jobs are published. But with so many candidates it can become overwhelming to manage the volume of applications. This is where myInterview comes to the rescue, use video interviewing to hear from every candidate so you can more quickly make a decision on who to progress with.
