HireVue

HireVue is an enterprise hiring platform for structured video interviewing, pre-hire assessments, and recruiting workflow automation. Employers can invite candidates to on-demand or live interviews, combine interview questions with game-based or technical assessments, and review job-related competencies through reports. HireVue also offers virtual job tryouts, conversational recruiting, scheduling, and integrations with ATS and HR systems. Candidates use it for free; employers request a contract.

✨ Key Features

• OnDemand video interviews — Send structured interview questions that candidates answer asynchronously in a browser or mobile experience, at a time that suits them.
• Live video interviews — Conduct interviewer-led conversations with scheduling and candidate review.
• Structured interview design — Link questions to role-specific competencies so hiring teams assess candidates against a consistent framework.
• Game-based assessments — Use short, mobile-friendly psychometric games to assess areas such as personality and work style, working with people, and working with information.
• Technical assessments — Deliver coding and other technical tests that can be automatically scored and reviewed alongside the hiring process.
• Virtual Job Tryout — Show realistic job situations while assessing skills, personality, and interests through a multi-method experience.
• AI-assisted assessment — Use AI-supported analysis and job-fit insights as decision support for recruiters and hiring managers, with human review remaining important.
• Conversational AI recruiting — Automate candidate engagement and screening conversations for selected workflows while presenting the experience as AI-led.
• Workflow and ATS integrations — Connect assessments with leading ATS/CRM systems and use APIs or integrations to fit existing hiring operations.

💳 Pricing

• Essential package — custom quote — HireVue’s official pricing page describes an Essential package for organizations choosing an entry point to its hiring platform, but does not publish a fixed public amount.
• Premium package — custom quote — The same pricing page describes a Premium package for broader hiring needs; the final price depends on scope, users, assessments, integrations, and services.
• Free for candidates — $0 — Candidates invited to a HireVue interview or assessment do not pay and do not need to download an app for the web experience.

HireVue is employer-paid B2B software rather than a free recruiter tool. The public site directs buyers to request a demo or quote, and professional services, training, support, integrations, assessment design, and contract terms may be negotiated separately. Confirm the package contents and data-processing terms before purchase.
