April 03, 2024 Ep 21 - How to conduct more intelligent interviews with Nick Livingston.
Interviewing is still considered a black box in the hiring process. There's so much data that can be captured, searched and shared.
If you do not use an interview intelligence tool, you must start now.

One such product product is Honeit Talent Solutions. I had the pleasure of meeting Nick Livingston 4.5 years ago at a Tech event and when he joined Chris Haslam and me for Episode 21.
Honeit is revolutionising the way companies conduct interviews and make hiring decisions. Here are some key points we discussed:
➡ Recording and sharing interview insights can save time, improve collaboration, and provide valuable data for decision-making.
➡ Intake calls are crucial for uncovering the actual needs of hiring teams and attracting the right candidates.
➡ Sharing interview highlights with stakeholders improves alignment, accountability, and collaboration in the hiring process.
➡ Interview intelligence data is becoming valued by HR for compliance and as an organisational asset.
➡ Documenting conversations and leveraging interview insights can significantly improve hiring efficiency and effectiveness.
🚀 Leveraging video and audio snippets in outreach can increase engagement and authenticity, helping candidates better understand the role and company.
📊 Data shows that hiring managers review and provide feedback quickly when interview highlights are shared, reducing time to alignment.
