took the survey
In English and Finnish
We’ve conducted an ongoing survey since 2015, asking candidates for feedback and opinions on video interviews. In this ebook, we summarized all the survey responses we received in 2022. The survey respondents were candidates who completed their pre-recorded video interviews using the Recright video interviewing platform. A pre-recorded video interview is an interview format where the hiring team prepares and records video questions for candidates to respond to with video answers at their convenience.
