HireVue, the pioneer and global leader in Human Potential Intelligence today announced a new category for hiring, marking a shift from standard hiring practices and introducing a forward-thinking paradigm that assesses candidates based on their skills and potential. By challenging traditional norms, HireVue places the focus squarely on what truly matters — human potential.
HireVue believes that traditional hiring methods are outdated and broken - a sentiment echoed by job candidates and employees worldwide. In the recent HireVue Hiring Experience Report 2023, which surveyed over 3000 individuals, respondents overwhelmingly expressed discontent with the current hiring landscape. Points of frustration include a lack of feedback (40%), the constraint of resumes rather than assessment based on potential and skills (30%), the need for more streamlined processes to adapt to new requirements (37%), and the prevalence of inaccurate job descriptions (31%).
Rearview Recruiting: The Broken Tradition
Conventional "Rearview Recruiting," relies on outdated practices where hiring decisions are made based on resumes and qualifications. Legacy HR Tech compounds the issue by leaning heavily on resume screening and profile scraping. Focusing on what a person has done and not what they have the potential to do creates blind spots and hinders the identification of future talent needs. This traditional system further frustrates candidates with a soulless, manual, and opaque process that takes way too long, with little communication and no feedback.
Science, Not Guesswork: The Birth of Human Potential Intelligence
HireVue's Human Potential Intelligence offers a new way, moving beyond traditional practices and prioritizing fairness and objectivity.
By leveraging AI to evaluate candidates based on potential, skills and interests, it replaces guesswork with a nuanced understanding of each candidate. This transformative approach positions HR not just as a cost center but as a strategic talent incubator, ushering in a new era where the hiring experience becomes a human journey of growth and empowerment for all involved.
Madeline Laurano, Founder & Chief Analyst, Aptitude Research commented: “HireVue's introduction of 'Human Potential Intelligence' represents a groundbreaking shift in the traditional landscape of hiring. Relying on the constructs of the past like resumes and job descriptions falls short in identifying potential, HireVue's innovative approach that brings together both the art and science of hiring by design, supported by their industry-leading AI, stands out as a beacon of change. By focusing on the skills and potential of the humans in the hiring process, this new category redefines hiring criteria and opens doors for companies to hire for the needs of today and ensure they have the right talent for the future."
Anthony Reynolds, CEO at HireVue says, "Hiring is in need of a revolution, and we firmly believe that the antidote lies in technology guided by science. Conventional hiring practices tend to overlook the untapped potential of candidates, fixating on past achievements. Instead, we’re creating a world where every candidate, regardless of the outcome, gains valuable insights and redirection towards roles that align better with their potential.”
