Yeah, HireVue. My company uses them for some job postings at the discretion of the hiring manager.
In general I don't like them. I've seen some job postings that get literally hundreds of applicants though, so I get the company would look for ways to process that many more efficiently. I also think it would be difficult for a hiring manager not to judge an applicant on "video presence", hardly a skill that is top of the priority list for most jobs.
If AI sorting of videos is available I've not seen my company use that feature. To my knowledge, all videos are reviewed by humans. From a previous Lemmy posting about HireVue, I also learned it can be set to only allow one attempt at recording and answering a question, or unlimited.
I kinda think of it as an escalating arms race. Companies put filters in place for resumes. Applicants found tools that aid them in mass applying with a single click. Companies add more filters like HireVue now to deal with the flood of applicants. Applicants are replying by declining or posting to GitHub or whatever.
