When I first founded Hirevire, I was fundamentally opposed to using AI for candidate screening. I still believe that recruitment is an inherently human process that should not be reduced to algorithms. My core conviction is simple: candidates invest hours crafting responses, and they deserve genuine human attention.

We’ve had AI generated transcripts for this exact reason, it would help you read through the video and audio responses generated - while saving you the time to view all the videos in-depth.

I’ve always believed that being a professional is like running on a treadmill, if you’re not moving forward, you’re going backwards. AI technology has recently reached a pivotal point where it can meaningfully augment—not replace—human decision-making in recruitment.

With that very big context - here’s what we’ve released to a everyone

You will have the option to add a prompt to explain your ideal candidate profile or evaluation criteria. The application responses are then reviewed by Hirevire’s AI and you get a summary insight on why the AI considers the response to be a match - or not.

AI Reviews works only video and audio responses which have transcripts enabled.

AI Reviews can be manually triggered

Individually

Or in Bulk

Or automatically for every new application from within job settings

Evaluation criteria needs to be provided as a 200 character prompt

The AI review shows you match/non-match insights for each video or audio response with reasoning available on hover

We need your feedback to help improve this.

Added option to link to your custom privacy policy here.

Thinking time is our way to allow for our customers to set a time for candidates to prepare for an answer. This resolves a persistent issue where some candidates read the question and then take a long time to formulate an answer and then reply.

Thinking time can be set for all types of questions on hirevire

For answers that need a recording we show a time at the top of the screen which counts down the time available and then starts the recording automatically.

This time starts when the question is first seen. This timer continues even if the page is closed, or the candidate moves to the next question. The recording must start within the allotted thinking time. If the recording cannot start (let's say the candidate has closed the window and then comes back to the question after the thinking time has elapsed) - the question is locked and the candidate is asked to move to the next question.

This answer shows as skipped in the application view.

The recording when stopped, enables a 30 second timer on the "Next" button - so that the next question question is visible without any feedback from the user.

Standard response type questions (Single-line text, links, numbers, dates, multiple choice) can now have thinking time as well.

One thinking time shows for all questions - since they're all on one page.

The colour of the timer is a dimmer version of the button colour set in the company branding options in Hirevire.

For text entry or file upload type questions - thinking time is actually answering time - where the answers should be given within the time allotted.

We've mentioned thinking and answering time as different

We've been slowly working on improving thinking time since the last release - details of the existing featureset is here https://hirevire.canny.io/changelog/thinking-time-v05

We'll continue to improve it based on feedback.

Numerous Hirevire customers who used Microsoft 365 recently have had issues logging in, since Microsoft's Safety Scanner would click on the magic links before customers could view the email.

To mitigate this, we henceforth have only OTPs in the login email.

Now, you can preview PDF file responses, such as resumes, directly within the dashboard without downloading and opening the files.
