What hiring teams say after watching: she's so warm; actually answered the question; great communicator; didn't pretend to know; really easy to listen to.

Why first rounds mislead

You're not comparing candidates.
You're comparing conversations.

Six calls, six different conversations. Different questions, different time of day, a different version of you by the sixth one. Then you line the candidates up and choose, as though the thing you'd measured was them.

1

By the sixth call you're asking better questions

Your first interview of the week and your last are not the same interview. You work out what to probe as you go, which means the person you spoke to first was assessed by a worse version of you, and they'll never know it.

2

Your panel never sees the same thing

When three people each take their own call, you end up comparing three sets of notes instead of three candidates. Everyone in the room is arguing from a different conversation, and the loudest recollection usually wins.

3

There's nothing to go back to

A live call leaves a memory and a few scribbles. If someone questions the decision a month later, or you want another look at the person who came second, there is nothing to return to.

How it works

Write the questions once.
Everyone gets the same ones.

Nothing to schedule, nothing to install, and no back and forth with people you haven't decided about yet.

1

Build your interview

Write your questions, or start from a template. Set how long candidates get to think and how long they get to answer.

2

Send the link

One link goes to everyone on your list. Candidates record on their device whenever it suits them. No account, no download, nothing to book.

3

Watch and decide

Answers land in one place. Your whole panel watches the same interview instead of comparing notes from three separate calls.

Not only hiring

Anywhere you'd rather hear the person.

A

Hiring and recruitment

First-round screening at any volume, from one role to a seasonal intake.

B

Auditions and presentations

Casting calls, talent auditions, pitch rounds and student showcases. Anything you need to watch rather than read about.

C

Research and interviews

Collect structured answers from people in different places and time zones, without booking a single call.

Your next role

Ask everyone the same thing.
Then choose.

Build your first interview and send it to one shortlist. You'll know within a day whether you ever want to run six separate first-round calls again.
