"Flexible and Efficient Hiring, Though Lacks Real-Time Interaction"
What I like best about Willo Video Interviewing is how it makes the hiring process faster and more inclusive. Candidates can record interviews in their own time, and hiring teams can review responses when it suits them. It is a great balance of flexibility and efficiency.
Cons
Limited candidate communication features can cause confusion and missed follow-ups.
Integration challenges with hiring platforms affect tracking and efficiency.
Cumbersome editing workflow requires multiple clicks for simple changes.
Can feel less personal compared to live interviews.
Email delivery and branding limitations, including spam issues and basic templates.
Limited question visibility and customization, with fewer templates.
Some candidates feel uncomfortable with video recording, impacting completion rates.
David K.
There are a few bugs that can make the software difficult to use, including difficulty interfacing with the Apple iPad, a lack of options for how to rate interviewees (I would prefer a numerical rating system or the ability to determine our own rating system, as opposed to the five options given by Willo). Additionally, the videos auto-advance from question to question, which can cause difficulty when you need to re-hear a student's response to an audition question before moving onto the next question.
