Best Practices for Virtual Interviews

(From SHRM) Despite evidence that the majority of American job seekers prefer in-person interviews, many companies continue to utilize virtual interviews in the hiring process. Virtual interviews are favored for their ability to evaluate candidates from various locations, streamlining the hiring timeline. PwC, for instance, fully embraced remote interviews this year to broaden its talent pool. For companies adopting virtual interviews, key best practices include utilizing one-on-one interviews for candidate comfort, initiating discussions with non-formal topics, posing uniform questions to compare responses, and readiness to adapt in the face of IT challenges.
