The interface for admins was very easy to use, and it was easy to set up new questions and to record ourselves professionally. We also found it easy to overlay our company logos so that the process aligned with our branding. The ability to watch back the interview responses was great, along with their easy-to-use rating scale.

In a previous organization I worked with, we bought VidCruiter because we had an onslaught of recruiting needs that took up a lot of time for our recruiters. We had basic questions we needed all of our applicants to answer, but due to time constraints, we were only able to target maybe 15% of the applicant pool at a time. With VidCruiter, we were able to set up a basic video interview of pre-recorded questions that we could automatically send out to all qualified candidates, without needing to schedule individual interviews with them. The tool was easy to use and to rate candidates on their responses. Plus, it integrated with our ATS, making it easy for applicants to transition to their platform.

Some users had issues with the technology required to complete the video interviews. This caused us to lose out on some candidates because responding to a video interview not only requires some technical acumen, but it is also a little less personal than an actual phone call. The video also had some lag issues with us in the past, both in recording new questions and listening to responses. The design of how to navigate the back end of the website could also use some work.

VidCruiter offers a competitive price, and their ability to integrate with a large number of ATS systems makes them a preferred service in this industry.

Integration is key. The last thing you want for your applicants is to force them to log in to multiple systems, to have to redo any part of their application process, or to feel like their candidacy is not being taken seriously. Find a vendor that can integrate well and gives a positive experience for your candidates.

Not that I'm aware of. The system has been pretty consistent for a while now.

Anyone that is doing a lot of hiring for the same position. This can be for entry-level jobs or for higher-end jobs that have a lot of openings. For us, we used VidCruiter for project management and sales openings, both of which get a large volume of applicants.

VidCruiter offered extensive customization options for interview templates, making it easy to tailor the process to specific roles. The platform included robust onboarding tools, which facilitated a smooth transition for new hires. VidCruiter's scheduling tools streamlined interview coordination, reducing the administrative burden on our team.

We initially purchased VidCruiter to streamline our recruitment process with video interviewing and onboarding tools. The platform's features for candidate management and scheduling were appealing as we needed an efficient way to handle the high volume of applications. VidCruiter helped us simplify and organize our hiring process. We used VidCruiter for about two years before transitioning to another solution that better aligned with our needs for advanced AI-powered candidate analysis and seamless HRIS integration.

The platform's AI capabilities were not as advanced as we needed for in-depth candidate analysis. We experienced some difficulties integrating VidCruiter with our existing HRIS and other systems. The user interface could be more intuitive, as some users found it challenging to navigate.

VidCruiter stands out due to its extensive customization options and robust onboarding tools, which are ideal for organizations needing tailored interview processes and seamless new hire transitions. However, its AI capabilities are less advanced compared to competitors like myInterview, which excels in AI-powered video screening and detailed candidate analysis. Integration with existing HRIS systems can also be more challenging with VidCruiter.

We prefer myInterview because of its superior AI-driven insights into candidates' soft skills and its seamless integration with our HRIS. These features significantly enhance our hiring efficiency and decision-making processes, making it a better fit for our needs.

Ensure the platform is intuitive for both recruiters and candidates to avoid slowing down the hiring process. Look for tools with robust AI capabilities that provide valuable insights into candidates' soft skills and personalities. Check if the tool integrates well with your existing HRIS and payroll systems for efficient onboarding and seamless data management.

Consider features that improve the candidate experience, such as flexible recording times and user-friendly interfaces. Ensure the tool can scale with your company's growth and offers customizable options to meet specific hiring needs.

VidCruiter has continuously evolved to better meet user needs by enhancing its video interviewing and onboarding tools. The platform has introduced more customization options, allowing companies to tailor the interview process more precisely to their needs. Improvements in user interface design have made it more intuitive for both recruiters and candidates.

VidCruiter is good for medium to large organizations that require extensive customization in their hiring processes. It is ideal for companies with a complex recruitment process that benefits from tailored interview workflows and robust onboarding tools.

1. Overall, the ability to offer both live and recorded interviews.

2. The cost of the offering was very reasonable compared to its competitors.

3. The customer service you are able to receive from them when needed on demand is wonderful. They’re very responsive usually within a matter of just a couple of minutes.

My organization was looking for a way to screen applicants for an initial interview in an effective and efficient manner. Knowing that, we started exploring options for video interviewing both pre-recorded and live.

Through our research, we identified VidCruiter as an option and ultimately was the one that we implemented. We added their software during the pandemic and have used it since. It’s been a great help, and really reduced our screening times through recorded interviews as we have been doing a large amount of hiring.

1. The company is based out of the country, which was not a preference of our organization for security and compliance reasons.

2. Overall, the functionality of the system, as a whole, was a bit more limited than some of its competitor's offerings.

3. The branding of the offering was a little outdated, and wasn’t as modern as some of the alternative options we considered.

Overall, their offering is reasonably priced software that can be used to accomplish the goal of conducting live or recorded interviews with candidates. 

Many of the other offerings were much more expensive than what we were able to pay. It’s easy to use and the responsiveness of the customer service team is exactly what we needed. Some of the alternatives had much longer wait times in comparison, which we didn’t want to deal with.

It allows us to accomplish exactly what we need without paying a high price and without making our process super complicated for candidates, which we appreciate.

Overall, really determine at the start what you need a software for to help your process. If you are only needing it for basic functions, like conducting a live or recorded interview with candidates, you may find that there are some vendors that offer functionality way beyond that, which may be more than you need.

As a result, this means the price tag of those offerings could be significantly higher, more than you can justify, or are willing to pay. Once you’ve identified what you need and can pay, it really helps narrow down the list of vendors that you can move forward with.

One of the biggest improvements our organization has experienced in working with them is that they built integrations with other systems that now make our process really smooth.

For example, we utilize Workday for our HRIS and their software integrates smoothly. This wasn’t something we had at the beginning of our experience as a customer, but now have it and it’s really helped become a seamless transition from one software to the next.

Great for an organization that doesn’t need all the bells and whistles, but that needs an offering that can do basic functionality like live and recorded interviews with candidates. So ideally, the best fit would be for a small or medium size organization.

If you are a large organization, you likely want more personalized branding, a modern look and feel, and a more robust offering than what they can offer.
