Hinterview feature is a 2 way video tool, which enables a tailorable approach to video interviewing.
Recording a Hinterview is a quick and straight forward process.
It's all about setting expectations with your candidates early in the process and ensuring they're well prepared.
1 - There are several options to start a Hinterview session. To discover them, simply click on the small arrow pointing down. To directly create a lobby, where your candidates can be invited to, simple click on the text in the icon saying "Hinterview".
The options below are:
Copy Link - will copy a link which can be pasted or sent to the user attending the session.
Start Hinterview - Will open the lobby immediately, just as clicking the text "Hinterview" in the button will.
Invite Via Email - Simply sends out an email.
Please note: the "Invite Via Email option uses Outlook Integration. If not integrated, it will automatically prompt the Outlook app.
1.2 - It is also possible to record a Hinterview session from the candidate page, in the Candidates tab, as long as the candidate exists. If a candidate does not exist, one must be created in order to start a Hinterview session using this method.
2 - Once opening a session, Hinterview will start checking the user's connection to the server, as well as equipment permissions.
Please note: If the user is not able to get through this stage, an error message indicating the issue will show. These are usually related to permissions or connection. It is important to make sure no other applications or browser tabs are using Microphone and Camera.

3 - Once the connection checks have successfully verified the user, the below window will show. The record button will appear at the bottom, once the other user is connected.
It is also possible to send an invite at this stage, by clicking in the top-right corner button with a +.
4 - Clicking to invite will open a side window, where it is possible to, again, copy a link or directly invite a user by inserting their email.
5 - The below shows a candidate's point of view. They will also go through the same connection checks. However, they will be prompted with the below screen, once successfully passed the connection checks.
Here, the candidate will have to insert their Name, Email, and accept our terms below by ticking both boxes. They can also check their equipment using the menu on the left. Once everything has been filled, the button at the bottom will become available (orange). Once they click on the button, a notification will be sent to the recruiter.
6 - The below, shows how the recruiter received the notification. Clicking on the button will open up a side bar menu, showing who is waiting to be let in.
7 - Clicking the candidate will allow them in.
8 - The recruiter and candidate are now side by side. Note, the recording button will now show below.
9 - After clicking the record button, notice a second timer (which is the recording timer) will show. To stop the recording, press the record button again. This ensures the recording stops and saves, but the call keeps going.
10 - Once the call is shut down, the recording will be uploaded and processed. It is important to wait until this process finishes before doing other tasks, as they may interfere with the processing.
11 - Once processed, the recording can be found either by Candidate page or in the Hinterview tab. The title can be changed, and notice the session is now attached to a Candidate's name.
