Async (Asynchronous) Video Interviews allow candidates to record their responses to predefined interview questions at their own convenience, without the need for a live interviewer.

Key Benefits

  • Flexibility: Candidates can respond anytime, anywhere

  • Scalability: Screen multiple candidates without scheduling calls

  • Consistency: All candidates receive the same set of questions

  • Fairness: Reduces bias by standardizing the interview experience
    Efficiency: Saves time for hiring teams, especially in high-volume roles

How It Works

  1. Create an Interview
    Set up your job role, add video or text-based questions, and enable async interview mode.

  2. Invite Candidates to apply
    Share the interview link with candidates manually or automatically via job application portals.

  3. Candidates Record Responses
    Applicants complete the interview by recording answers within a set time limit.

  4. Review & Rate
    Recruiters or team members review video responses, apply ratings, and make decisions, all from the dashboard.
