The use of video interviewing has also sped up the hiring process at staffing firms. When using video, hiring processes are more efficient, better data and objectivity are obtained, and the opportunity to consistently interview and screen candidates for a position is presented as well. It's a good idea to use video interviews to cut costs, improve and systemize hiring processes, and speed up the hiring process. In February and March of 2020, the number of companies using video interviews increased by 67%. Staffing firms are increasingly using video interviews and screening as a way to reduce the time it takes to hire new employees in light of the current candidate shortage, improving economic conditions, remote working practices, and client requests. These video interviewing platforms, such as Interview, SparkHire, and Odro, improve the applicant and client/consultant experience and convenience.
