WePow Reviews

Conducting Interviews with this system is easy to use and makes the interview process personal

Comments: The benefit I like most is the ability to conduct a live interview with face to face capability. This personalizes the interview for both parties and provides a better means of making hiring decisions.

Pros:

The ability to connect live with the person being interviewed. This allows both parties to establish a rapport and makes the interview as though they were sitting across the desk from you.

Cons:

I should be easier to edit the date and time when changes are needed due to a change in schedule by either party.

Wepow helps make our recruiting process easier and more efficient!

Comments: Make the hiring process easier!

Pros:

Wepow has great customer service and their website is user-friendly making it easy to use. The interface keeps our recruiting efforts organized.

Cons:

There are probably other features that we could use that we haven't tapped into. It can be a little overwhelming.

The product serves it's purpose. It's been able to handle an extremely high volume of candidates.

Pros:

We pay quite of attention to candidate experience, and we've heard nothing but positive feedback from that end.

Cons:

Some of the admin tools are a bit wonky and confusing, building templates could be a bit easier and the tool in general could use a little help on the UX side.

Easy to connect with candidates and to navigate around the site through many different interviews

Pros:

The connectivity to candidates and how we are able to see how far the candidate is getting. Also being able to send them direct links to their own profile and how easy it is to connect with customer support.

Cons:

The export feature - I wish it was more organized in terms of being able to export the specific tabs i.e. dismissed candidates or incomplete candidates by name to help assist with certain reports.

WePow has been a life saver. As a recruiter in an emerging industry we depend on tech like this!

Comments: I hire people. Fast. Thanks again WePow, Airfield loves you!

Pros:

WePow is a very well designed and thought out platform. You can tell they have really taken the time to build a quality product . Live Interviews have been awesome! That and the team is AMAZING!!! :)

Cons:

Limited mobile capabilities. I would love to see better Live Interviews when using mobile devices to connect.

The interface is generally slow and latency when recording is poor. Only use because it's policy.

Comments: Ability to connect with candidates globally, although I usually use Skype instead.

Pros:

- Sending interviews to candidates - The mobile app is very good, really easy to use and responsive - The support is generally good - Scriptable emails

Cons:

- Speed of interface - Latency when recording video answers - Upload interface for videos - Lags behind Skype when being used for group chats - Cost - Candidate document upload function is rectrictive

I have found WePow to be a great tool in aiding me in my recruiting efforts

Comments: WePow helps speed up the recruiting process. I can send a link in a matter of seconds and it helps me get eyes on the candidate. I can also forward on to my Hiring team for them to review.

Pros:

Ease of use for both candidate and customer. Not once have I ever had a candidate contact me and say there was an issue!

Cons:

Nothing glaring to share at this time in all honesty. From time to time there are glitches but I think they might be on the users end.

Wepow video screened candidates for the manager's review on professionalism and demo abilities.

Pros:

The ability to share candidates with managers, but maintain a limit for bias and candidate quality.

Cons:

Glitches within the system. A lot of my candidates had completed their videos, but missed one button and we are not able to see any of it. There have been a few times candidates have had to resubmit videos due to no audio, not their video being erased if not completed.

My experience can be summed up in just a few words.. Amazing, FanTASTIC and superduperb.

Comments: Lots

Pros:

Things that i like most about this software is the fact i can so easily use it and look at all my favorite people doing interviews through my favorite interviewing tool!

Cons:

The things that i like least about this software is not being able to extract data as easily as other competitors - ouch!

Easy to use, great Help section

Comments: Faster and more comprehensive way to evaluate candidates...saved us from bringing in candidates for in-person interviews and wasting everyone's time.

Pros:

It's intuitive to use, and the Help section has any answer you may need. It's easy to add evaluators and I like seeing that completion status on each candidate.

Cons:

I wasn't able to mix written questions with video recorded questions. I may be doing it wrong or my Company may have restricted a setting.

Clean, easy to use, excelent customer support, very poor in customizations and extremely expensive.

Pros:

Clean, easy to use, excelent customer support, very didatic in terms of how to record the interview and has a very clever step-by-step set-up and instructions.

Cons:

Poor in terms of customization and extremely expensive compare to the overall video interview market.

Recruiting teachers and trainee teachers

Comments: flexibility - most of our interviews are done with people overseas so we don't have to worry about trying to arrange face to face interviews across several time zones

Pros:

As we have many overseas hires it is difficult to organise face to face skype etc. because of the time differences. Wepow saves us so much time and we can review the videos when we want.

Cons:

Obviously this is not really an issue with the wepow software but sometimes the other person's video is low quality

Efficient, the platform is friendly and a nice experience.

Comments: I spend less time scheduling interviews and sending invites to the candidates an to the interviewers (I could check their agenda from Wepow).

Pros:

As an administrator, scheduling the interviews, is really easy to manage the platform and also for the candidates and interviewers is really easy to enter to the video interview. I like the interface. I like that the invites have tags and that we could personalize our invites.

Cons:

I want to send different invites to the candidate and the interviewer, and it isn't possible. It's complicated for the interviewers to contact the support team when they have a connecting issue, because they have their time measure, and sometimes the support spend a lot of time.

Very helpful in pre-screening for quality applicants

Comments: Saves time in finding quality applicants.

Pros:

A fun and interactive way to do pre-screening. It eases the administrative burden of setting up pre-screening phone interviews. The system has a good way of putting the candidates at ease with some sample questions they can use and explanation of the process. Hiring managers can be given access to view and rate the Wepow interviews, streamlining the hiring process.

Cons:

You can create template forum questions but the preview does not allow you to view the whole question or the answers if it is multiple choice. If you have 2 similar questions you cannot tell which one you are choosing.

I use WePow for many of my open positions in Nursing. It is a great tool to help screen candidates

Pros:

The fact that I do not need to do as many phone screens is a huge plus. This helps short our time to fill.

Cons:

Sharing the WePows with hiring managers is not easy. I wish we had a tool to make this easier to complete.

As my first time having a video interview, it was very easy and useful.

Pros:

Even if you are not in the same room with the other person, WePow makes you feel like you were! It gives you the full interview experience and provides you the quality tools that you need.

Cons:

The interface speed and the mobile capabilities could get better. When these two improve, WePow will be one of the best options!

Helpful and a faster way to find candidates

Pros:

It is a faster filter regarding the basic requirements and It was able to have more assertivenesses.

Cons:

I only had some feedback from candidates that couldn't accomplish the deadline because the email went automatically to trash and some of the videos didn't have a good audio.

Really easy to navigate and good customer support team

Comments: Hired plenty of volunteers and manage their application processes well on Wepow

Pros:

User friendly, large widgets, keyboard controls easy to use , good analytic page (really user friendly diagrams, like that you can send SMS or email reminder invites (and edit these)

Cons:

No archiving process - somewhere to store old interviews or invites away from your main feed. Sometimes the app is a lot quicker at loading the videos than the website

I'm a regional recruiter interviewing candidates from all over the country while in my living room.

Comments: My ICIMS connections are difficult and clunky. Some candidates have a difficult time logging on.

Pros:

I like the ability to see the candidates and their gestures before forwarding them to the hiring manager. This software enables me to do so much more than a phone screen would allow. I have the first true interview with candidates, so I can eliminate those who are not appropriate.

Very effective and easy way to interview!

Comments: It was a very easy way to get a large amount of interviews completed without having to worry about technical issues from other video chat applications.

Pros:

It was very simple for everyone to figure out without wasting a lot of time. I was able to hop on and get working right away.

Cons:

The email communication can be a bit too frequent, however, it doesn't let you forget about your reviews!

Recruiting people is incredibly easy

Pros:

We consider ourselves a company that continues to grow, we still need many talents in our company. We recently started using wepow given how small we are, we need many people and it has gone incredibly well!

Cons:

The truth is that there are very few things that I did not like, but if they could improve on some things. It seems to me that the visualization in different devices is not very good, at the same time, when you export the information sometimes it fails.

We utilise WePow to screen employment candidates and I have found it is very user friendly.

Comments: Ability to communicate with candidates, individually and as a group - and showcase our use of technology in our work environment.

Pros:

The layout is easy to use, when viewing video responses everything I need is on the one page (form question answers, video response, rating, shareability). Super quick and easy to use for mass applicants.

Cons:

Some of the reporting functionality could be updated. There's only an option pull data and not to select the data you want. For example: when I want to know the average rating all parties have provided on a candidate - the report pulls all scores entered and I have to filter and figure out the averages.

Highly Recommend

Comments: We are able to better screen applicants for jobs, as well as host interviews with external and internal candidates when Skype, Video conference or other video services are not viable.
It is not my go to for internal and external video interviews.

Pros:

The ability to have live interviews as well as the prerecorded have been instrumental in our talent acquisition needs

Cons:

It took a bit for me to figure out how to follow jobs- but the chat feature was so helpful

Easy to use!

Pros:

I like the ease of functionality with WePow. It helped us run through our pipeline much faster and monger in a good selection of candidates.

Cons:

Sometimes it was slow to load when trying to view candidate's answers. It skipped through some video segments also. It wasn't regular.

Used Wepow for several interviews when searching for new candidates

Pros:

I like seeing the video interview before talking with the candidates, and I can rate their responses so my recruiter can see them.

Cons:

I think it should have a "done" button after I review the last response. When I watch the interview and complete the ratings, it just stays on the screen and I'm not always sure it's completed from my end. I think a "done" button with an exit message would let me know I don't need to take additional steps.
