Will Virtual Job Interviews Become the Norm?

Recruiting professionals predict that the use of online video conferencing for job interviews will grow, but face-to-face interviews are not yet a thing of the past.

Terri Davis, a U.S.-based senior recruiter for Decision Toolbox [link to http://www.dtoolbox.com] says that when she does international recruiting, a client will sometimes start with online video interviews and fly in only the finalists.

One of the key benefits is that it speeds up the interviewing process.

Sarah Edwards, [link to http://uk.linkedin.com/in/eaispecialist] a technology search consultant based in the U.K., says she recently had a candidate in Africa who did an online video interview for a job in Europe. The interview normally would have been face-to-face, but this was faster, Edwards says.

However, due to the candidate in Africa not having access to a quality, high-speed Internet connection, the quality wasn"t good enough using a free online service. Instead, the candidate did the interview at a video conferencing facility, which cost about ð‚¬500.

Edwards, Davis and other industry professionals predict that the use of online video interviews will grow, but in-person interviews will remain important for certain types of professions. For example, giving an engineering candidate a plant tour might be important to an employer, Davis says.
