Video Interviews…Cheaper than airport parking
When you are presenting products and services to the marketplace for a new product, sometimes you get a bit of push-back. That is especially true when you are talking about a product that hasn’t existed before, or a product that is so new that the majority of the target market has never heard of the product and sometimes have never even thought there might be a need for your product or service.
Push back can come from many places and on many levels. One of the places where we find that hiring companies push back a little is on the percentage of adoption of webcams in target employee homes. Hiring managers are sometimes overly concerned that the candidate pool where they are recruiting doesn’t have enough percentage of webcam owners.
“What if they don’t have a webcam” they ask?
Our answer is pretty simple. “Buy them one.” They are cheap as dirt, almost. The pictured webcam is available in our online store for right at $25.00. That is just about what a candidate would pay for airport parking ALONE for ONE DAY if you were to fly them in for an interview. So why not have the candidate order a webcam from our Amazon store and save yourself the price of the plane ticket? Seems like a no-brainer to me.
INTERVIEW on DEMAND - removing the barriers between TOP CANDIDATES and the COMPANIES that seek them.
Hiring managers - make faster, better hires while reducing costs.
Recruiters - make more placements with more companies, faster.
