Talent acquisition (recruiting) suites are used by recruiting teams to manage the job application selection process. Capabilities include an applicant tracking system, which handles the job requisition, job posting, application, and candidate selection workflows, and a combination of candidate relationship management (also known as sourcing or pipelining) and/or employee onboarding modules. Today’s talent acquisition suites offer a variety of functions with an emphasis on automation and AI-enabled capabilities to provide a streamlined, engaging experience for all stakeholders involved in the hiring process, such as recruiters, hiring managers and candidates. Organizations that do their own hiring require a means to engage, select and onboard would-be employees.
Video interviewing software helps organizations to evaluate the candidates through video calls and messages. This evaluation can be done either through pre-recorded (one-way) or live (real-time) web interviews. Most video interviewing software facilitates the integration with ATS (applicant tracking systems) and recruitment management systems. In pre-recorded online interviews, candidates have the flexibility to record their responses to the questions already prerecorded by recruiters at their convenience. However, in live video interviews, the recruiters meet with candidates online face-to-face by setting up a meeting time. Unlike generic video calling tools, video interviewing software is equipped with multiple recruitment-specific features and can be used in conjunction with many ATS, HR, and recruiting software. Some advanced software has built-in AI that can analyze candidates' facial expressions, nonverbal behavior, voice intonation, etc. to help decide on a candidate's fitment for the organization.
