How Does Live Video Interviewing Work?

A live video interview is a real-time, two-way interview conducted online between a candidate and one or more interviewers. This live video interview tool eliminates travel costs, standardizes evaluation across every interviewer, and creates a complete audit trail for every hire. The process follows four steps in VidCruiter’s live video interview platform.

Recruiters can add their own questions or use VidCruiter's database of validated questions.

How Does Live Video Interviewing Fit Within VidCruiter’s Video Interviewing Platform?

Live video interviewing is one component of VidCruiter’s video interviewing platform. The full suite includes two interview formats designed to work together across the hiring funnel.

Pre-recorded (one-way) video interviews

Asynchronous screening at scale, used early in the hiring funnel to replace phone screens. For more information, check out VidCruiter's one-way video interview software.

Pre-Recorded Video Interviewing

Live video interviews

Real-time, two-way video interviews supporting MMI assessments, panel interviews, group interviews, and hybrid formats.

Live Video Interviewing

Each format shares the same question bank, scorecards, candidate profiles, and reporting dashboards. Hiring teams move candidates between stages without rebuilding content or losing context. Live video is the right format when real-time conversation, multi-interviewer participation, or timed MMI station rotations are required.

Why Should You Use Live Video Interviews?

Live video interviews solve the biggest cost and consistency problems in mid- and late-stage hiring: travel expenses, scheduling delays, and unstructured evaluation. A live video interview platform replaces in-person meetings with a faster, standardized, and cost-effective process.

Cut Hiring Costs and Improve ROI

Live video interviews eliminate candidate and interviewer travel, reduce no-shows, and lower cost-per-hire. The result is measurable ROI for high-volume teams.

Cut Hiring Costs

Standardize Every Interview for Reliable Decisions

Structured questions, common rating scales, and shared scorecards give every interviewer the same criteria. The result is improved consistency, fairness, and reliability.

What Do Customers Say About VidCruiter’s Live Video Interviews?

Volume recruiting is just a different ball game, and many of our processes were manual and time-consuming. Recruiters simply didn't have enough hours in the day to properly vet all applications, schedule and conduct the number of interviews needed, and complete their administrative tasks consistently. We knew there was a better way.
