Get the Wow Effect in your Recruiting
We’ve all tried those chat-enablers (such as MSN/Yahoo Messengers, Google, Skype and the works) that allow you to video chat with friends and family, but we haven’t really employed it for interviews, have we? Now, that’s where Wowzer comes in to usher in a new era of video interviewing that may become the future of recruiting.
For those of you still unaware of the technology, Wowzer is a video screening and interviewing technology platform formerly known as OVIA. Wowzer enables you to find the most suitable personnel in the least possible time, thereby ensuring that your next employee begins adding value to the company immediately. It helps eliminates the phone screening process, which HR professionals typically experience wastes time for the company. It also helps companies make better decisions pertaining to candidates as the interview and screening process is personalized.
Last but not least, Wowzer provides structured interviews that should provide better results, while also conveying your company’s culture and values the way you want them to be seen.
