SALT LAKE CITY, UT--(Marketwire - Jun 7, 2011) - HireVue, a leading provider of video interviewing solutions, today announced its sponsorship of The Talent Board's First Annual North American Candidate Experience Awards. HireVue's sponsorship underscores its commitment to improving the interview process for candidates, helping them achieve maximum impact and exposure without the overwhelming time and travel commitments of traditional interview processes.
"HireVue provides a rich medium for companies to deliver a highly differentiated and engaging interview experience while building a remarkable employment brand," said Mark Newman, HireVue's co-founder and CEO. "We're thrilled to sponsor the Candidate Experience Awards and to be working with The Talent Board, whose mission and commitment to improving the recruiting process directly aligns with our goals."
Founded by the talent acquisition industry's leading experts -- Elaine Orler and Mark McMillan, Talent Function Group; Gerry Crispin, CareerXroads; and Ed Newman, Accidental Entrepreneur -- The Talent Board is a non-profit organization focused on the elevation and promotion of a quality candidate experience. The organization, awards program and its sponsors are dedicated to recognizing the candidate experience offered by companies through the entire recruitment cycle, and to forever changing the manner in which job candidates are treated.
Using HireVue's Video Interview Management Platform, organizations of all sizes and across all industries have taken steps to improve the interview process for both employer and job candidate -- from removing scheduling and geographic barriers, to providing a standardized, unbiased interview, and a collaborative candidate review process. Because HireVue's technology is typically used early in the recruiting process, it helps candidates stand out as individuals, rather than just qualifications on a résumé or a voice on the phone. With HireVue's video interviews candidates are at an advantage, often showcasing their skills, qualifications and interpersonal skills to several members of the recruiting team with just one interview. As a result, candidates remain engaged and receive feedback sooner.
"HireVue represents the cutting edge of candidate experience," commented Orler. "They have educated the market on how to capture the ROI offered by video. And their experience shows that candidates like it. We are proud to have them involved in the Candidate Experience Awards."
The First Annual Candidate Experience Awards ceremony will take place on October 4, 2011 at the HR Technology Conference in Las Vegas, Nev. Nominations should be submitted by June 30, 2011. Those interested in learning more are encouraged to attend The Talent Board's complimentary informational webinar on Wednesday, June 8, 2011.
