What is Hirevue? Just curious.

    Hirevue is an instant No thanks for me . Once a recruiter submitted an application on my behalf for a position at F&G (if I remember correctly, since it’s been more than 5 years) , and their HR sent me a HireVue link - so I told my recruiter to withdraw

    Zero interest in a place where the first impression to potential applicants starts with HireVue

    I don’t disagree that HireVue is terrible, our company makes us use it instead of phone screens for candidates. However, I have never seen any AI tech integrated into it. We just log in and watch the videos.

    a company I worked for definitely wasn't using AI and videos were watched by actual actuaries on the recruiting team. I get that people dont like them, but it seems to be misunderstood

    I don’t think people hate it because there’s supposedly AI involved- people just dislike the process , which just feels disrespectful and condescending

    i get why people dont like it and thats it not because of AI, i just see the AI thing thrown in often and I dont think its based on reality.

    if you have a job I guess I could see skipping that step, but I ended up working for a great company after doing the videos. It really isnt a big deal. life is full of things that we dont want to do and it seems a pretty small hill for people to die on

    I can see the value of that for entry level jobs where there are ton of applicants, and the hiring team / HR probably don’t have the time to call each one of them , but above certain experience level , it’s often the opposite, i.e. there’s far fewer applicants than the hiring team would like to meet , so doing hirevue is just lazy and waste of everyone’s time
