As a founder, there are a few company milestones that bring incredible joy. Fundraising is often one of them (Willo raised a Seed round in 2021 that I’m proud of). Helping our customers streamline video interviewing is another (the average user saves 6+ hours per week of admin with Willo). But the real win for me is seeing candidates succeed. And it’s only just the beginning.

With over 40 video interview software platforms available, it can be difficult to choose the right one. If you’re considering video interviews and want a platform that helps manage the whole process (versus just having a video call on Zoom or Microsoft Teams), these questions will help you sort out precisely what you need so you can make a decision on software.

Video interviews help you get to know a candidate more personally than a phone screen without the time and costs of an in-person conversation.

In the first 2 weeks of March, Willo users saved 9,000 hours of work (that works out to 6+ hours per recruiter per week).

While the ability to hire talent from all across the globe is one of the best things about remote work, it also comes with challenges of its own. To hire a good candidate remotely, you’d need to modify your hiring process to accommodate special remote qualities as well as judge a candidate in the usual way you would in an in-person interview.

Introducing file uploads and advanced sharing on top of Willo’s existing asynchronous video capabilities.

As remote work continues to hold around the world, companies need to think more consciously about diversity and inclusion (D&I) than ever. When you aren’t in an office together, it’s easy for already-marginalised communities to end up out of sight and out of mind.

We are proud to be an official video interviewing partner with Greenhouse, the leading ATS for in-house recruting teams around the world.
