Organizations should take time to think and act strategically on how to best retain and attract fresh new talent. Since 2009, one out of ten employees quit their jobs.

Video interviewing speeds up the hiring process and gives time to streamline the candidate’s efficiencies to place him in the right position. An instant feedback mechanism is harnessed through deploying AI. This relieves the candidate from stress and avoids selection bias in the recruitment process.Texting
