HireVue's platform allows employers to create and customize interview questions, which are then presented to candidates via pre-recorded video interviews. Candidates record their responses to these questions using their computer or mobile device. The recorded videos are then analyzed by the platform's AI algorithms, which can assess factors such as communication skills, body language, and relevant job qualifications.

The AI-driven analysis aims to provide employers with insights into a candidate's potential fit for a role, helping them make more informed hiring decisions. The platform can also be used for live video interviews, allowing employers to conduct real-time interactions with candidates from different locations.

While HireVue and similar platforms offer convenience and the ability to streamline the hiring process, they have also faced scrutiny and criticism over concerns related to bias in AI algorithms, privacy issues, and potential fairness and equity concerns in the assessment of candidates.
