PRE-RECORDED VIDEO INTERVIEW TIPS, Questions & BRILLIANT ANSWERS!
Why culture fit is a crucial part of talent acquisition
Itâs amazing how important culture fit is when hiring talent, even for software engineers. Most of the time, you are not only looking for someone who can solve problems, but also someone whose values, beliefs, and characteristics are a natural fit in your organization. Because culture fit varies greatly between organizations (and people), it can not be objectively assessed by tests or scores without bias. Regardless, video interviews provide a reasonable method for reviewers to understand the language level, behavior, and values of their candidates. The candidates record themselves on video answering specific questions, which a reviewer can watch at any time.
After you have finished all interview questions, and depending on the company/position you are applying for, you may be asked to provide availability to help with scheduling a next round interview. At this point, you have not yet been shortlisted by the recruiter. However, providing availability will signal your intent to the recruiter and speed up the process in the event that you are shortlisted.
The next slide tells you about all the questions that are included in this interview, as well as their configuration, supported languages, and time limits. There are also links to sample questions to help you familiarize yourself with the interview environment. Please note that these sample questions are not part of the interview.
GitHub is empty / GitHub created on the same day
In order to submit their interview, candidates must authenticate using Linkedin, Facebook, Github, Bitbucket, or Gitlab. Github is the most commonly used platform by developers. Occasionally, Filtered will notice that a candidate has an empty Github (no repos/activity) or has created their Github account just to submit the interview. These may be indicators which they are trying to hide their identity. We recommend combining this alert and other confidence analysis alerts in order to make a judgment call.
Filtered tracks IP addresses and knows where the candidate has taken their test. Occasionally, this location is not the same as where the candidate claims they are taking it. If the distance between the two locations is within a certain range, this may be fine, as the candidate is generalizing their location (e.g. saying âBostonâ instead of the exact location of the suburb âQuincy, MAâ). However, if the two locations are in different countries, this might be something that you should dig into further in order to verify the candidateâs identity.
This issue applies specifically to MSP accounts. There are times when the same candidate takes the same test through different vendors in order to pass the test and beat the screening rules. Filtered runs internal analysis across all interviews and flags any duplicate submissions. Recruiters and MSP managers will receive a notification about the flagged candidates if any duplications occur.
