As you’d suspect, digital interviews take place online, so you can conveniently participate in one anytime, anywhere.
The traditional recruitment process typically includes:
Digital interviews bring everything online, saving you time, money, and headspace.
By now, most of us have been on a video conference, either an online meeting for work or a video call with friends and family.
Video interviews are similar, but they’re used for professional hiring purposes.
You may meet for a live video interview (a real-time, face-to-face meeting, which may or may not be recorded) or a pre-recorded video interview (everyone participates in the interview on their own time).
So long as you have access to a desktop, laptop, or mobile device, you can participate. Just make sure you’ve got a decent internet connection and a way for people to see you (a webcam or built-in camera).
While all video interviews are digital, not all digital recruitment is video-based. The online hiring process often also includes:
Or, it might make sense to invest in an all-in-one remote recruitment suite. So much depends on your unique hiring needs.
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is at the heart of many HR efforts. Digital interviews can help amplify the push for greater DEI within your organization. Online interviews break down geographical barriers so recruiters can hire top talent worldwide. This increases your potential candidate pool, aids in diversifying teams, and allows you to welcome and accommodate more people.
Structured digital interviews reduce the dangers of hiring bias. They’re backed by science to help you make better hiring decisions. How? By applying more structure to the digital interview process. The digital interview incorporates consistent interview questions and rating systems that keep interviews focused and fair. The structured process also improves efficiency and collaboration within hiring teams.
Digital interviewing doesn’t just benefit hiring teams. Candidates benefit from being able to interview from the comfort of their home, and they don’t have the extra nerves that can come from trying to navigate a new space. In the case of pre-recorded video interviews, candidates also get the convenience of being able to interview any time of day. VidCruiter makes it easy for job applicants to participate; they simply click on a secure, unique link to enter the virtual interviewing room.
Digitizing your hiring efforts fast tracks your workday. Automation within digital interviewing steps accelerates the screening process, allowing recruiters to reduce their time-to-hire by up to 90%. It allows you to quickly identify a shortlist of candidates, digitally interview them, recruit feedback, and arrive at a hiring consensus so you can make job offers to the best candidates sooner.
After all, speed is important to candidates, who expect a quick turnaround on hiring decisions. 66% of candidates wait less than two weeks before moving on to other job opportunities.

Virtual interviews can save organizations and HR departments thousands of dollars a year. With so many money-saving benefits, many wish they’d switched to digital interviewing sooner. The average cost-per-hire is over $4,000 and turnover costs about a third of a worker’s annual earnings. It pays to hire the right people for the job—and the right HR tech makes all the difference.

Digital interviews are far more personable than a phone interview, helping employers and job seekers better understand each other. Since you’re not wasting time on people who aren’t qualified for the position, you can build stronger relationships with top candidates.
Digital interviewing is more prevalent than ever before. Although the digital transformation has been coming for some time, when COVID-19 made most in-person meetings impossible, global adoption of remote recruiting accelerated. Now virtual interviews are commonplace. Many organizations count on them to completely and confidently replace in-person interviews.
When we meet online, we eliminate all travel considerations, making it much easier to connect and manage time commitments. It’s no wonder why so many hiring teams have transitioned to remote recruitment.
Pre-recorded video interviews in particular make timezones and busy schedules a worry of the past. Since applicants record answers to pre-determined questions solo, they can do it anytime. Hiring teams review applicant videos anytime of day.
Since digital interviews are socially distanced, they help keep everyone safe, and they’re also super efficient. They integrate with your existing hiring processes, supercharging what’s working and fixing what’s not.
VidCruiter’s team of recruitment specialists can help you make the transition to remote recruitment, simplifying all stages of hiring—digitally and seamlessly.
