Video Interviewing? \u201eMaybe the right thing for a huge company like Telekom, but we are much too small for this!\u201d This is how many recruiters from smaller companies tend to think. But this is wrong!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">No matter how small you are as a company, you possibly want to grow, you want to get the right talents and enthuse them about what you have to offer, right? The best way to do this is to set up a clever and innovative recruiting approach. Just like German Start-up\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lovoo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LOVOO<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>did!<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">Check out what they have done to boost their candidate experience and get the most out of their recruiting processes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_structure_focus\"><strong>What do you need as a Start-up? Good people &#8211; as fast as you can!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\">We are also a start-up and can, therefore, tell from our own experience as well as from our clients\u2019 perspective. Start-ups want to grow quickly but sustainably. They are looking for staff who match the company\u2019s culture and who share their vision &#8211; and who are not expensive. As you see, their objectives do not differ a lot from the objectives of big companies. Start-ups are looking to attract the right candidates (Key words: hands-on mentality, flexibility, intrinsic motivation to show performance.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">What is also very common is the pressure to <strong>screen applications in a very short amount of time<\/strong>, without counting the fact that vacancies should be filled in no time at all. Which is the case at Lovoo.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\"><span style=\"color: #4ea13d\"><br \/>\nAt LOVOO \u201canything is possible\u201d <\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">LOVOO is, we believe, an attractive employer &#8211; young, dynamic with flat hierarchies. Employees can quickly take on responsibility and play an active role. This is attractive to many candidates. LOVOO is especially looking for people thinking outside the box.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">Anja Schulz, Head of Human Resources at LOVOO (photo), had a very clear idea of the requirements that the new recruiting tool should be able to meet.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>it must be easy and fast to integrate into internal processes<\/li>\n<li>it must be flexible in handling for all employees involved<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\">LOVOO also had to consider the fact that the CEO wanted to have his say in personnel selection decisions even though he is often travelling abroad. With such decentralized decision making, Lovoo needed to make sure the selection decisions they were making were the right ones. They needed a tool which made this possible.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\"><span style=\"color: #4ea13d\">Filling 2 key positons within 30 days<\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">LOVOO decided to use the viasto<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.viasto.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <em>interview suite<\/em><\/a><\/strong> for two &#8220;Channel Media Manager&#8221; vacancies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_structure_focus\"><strong>The Facts:<\/strong> <strong>20 candidates were invited to do a pre-recorded video interview. All applicants completed the video interview. 30 days after putting the job advert online, Lovoo successfully filled those vacancies.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_structure_focus\">What conclusion did Anja draw? What did the candidates think about the video interviews? <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.viasto.com\/en\/files\/2014\/06\/2014-06-03-case-Study-lovoo_eng_pers-HW1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download our LOVOO-Case Study.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\">What conclusions can we draw from this, actually? Innovative recruiting tools like the<em> interview suite<\/em> are not only for big companies. Especially smaller firms can benefit from the positive impact that an innovative approach in recruiting can have on candidates. This can make the difference. They will connect your company with the image of a smart and attractive employer who actually cares about their candidates by providing them with a cool and short hiring process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">Feel free to talk to me about how you can use video interviewing for your Start-up, small or medium-sized company!
