    You had me up until one way interview. I don’t respect any hiring manager that cannot face me in an interview. Never do one way interviews because there is no opportunity for the candidate to interview the company.

        Look at it from the candidates point of view. You have a set of questions or a task you want us to take the time to complete. We do not have the option to ask you questions and see if it is a good fit. That is one reason why we see it as unfair.

        Now I understand that you may have hundreds of applications, 24 hours in a day, and a deadline. I don’t have a better solution for you because I’ve never hired anyone, sorry. I feel for you but many people hate one way interviews.

          That’s not the experience we give. What you describe sounds bad.

          • candidate gets an email explain company and position in about 3 paragraphs, along with responsibilities and skill we’re looking for.
          • offers a short 3 minute video explaining company and role.
          • offers a one way interview to introduce themselves, and describe relevant skills or other anecdotes about themselves.
          • every candidate receives a phone call
          • promoted candidates get f2f (video chat) interview.

          So yeah. Perhaps not optimal, but it helps us hire more effectively, and we can process twice {roughly} as many candidates
