In the digital age, video interviews have become a staple in the hiring process, so we’ve gathered insights from community managers and CEOs to discover their preferred software and features.

-   Choose Professional Zoom Backgrounds
-   Enjoy Cisco Webex’s High-Quality Features
-   Record Interviews with Microsoft Teams
-   Find Reliability with Google Meet

### Choose Professional Zoom Backgrounds

My favorite tool for video interviews is Zoom. This software has a wide selection of professional-looking backgrounds to choose from, that can easily cover up the messy space behind you that could be distracting for your interlocutor.

When using this feature, you can set the scene and tone for the conversation by selecting a clean, professional background, such as an office space, or a simple apartment interior with an old-timey bookcase, or a modern wardrobe with houseplants. Having that feature at hand allows you to focus on interview preparation, instead of having to worry about cleaning up your room or about the people walking behind you in the office space you’re using.

### Enjoy Cisco Webex’s High-Quality Features

Cisco Webex is my favorite software for video interviews because it provides high-quality video and audio. It makes communication very easy with high-definition video and crystal-clear audio, allowing my candidate and me to engage effectively without disruption.

The platform prioritizes the protection of sensitive conversations and data through end-to-end encryption. This commitment to security is crucial for maintaining the confidentiality of interview discussions, a major concern in professional settings. Webex’s screen-sharing feature is one aspect I enjoy the most during the interview process. I can share presentations, documents, or other relevant materials, providing a visual aid to support discussions and enhance the overall interaction.

In conclusion, Cisco Webex offers high-quality audio and video, security measures, and a user-friendly design, making it a preferred choice for interviews.

### Record Interviews with Microsoft Teams

In our video interviews, we use Microsoft Teams. I think the best thing about this tool is its ability to record meetings and interviews. This is extremely useful for us, as we can always go back and review the interviews at any time.

Additionally, this feature enables us to share the videos with other team members involved in the hiring process, allowing for collective evaluation and informed decision-making. By reviewing the recordings and engaging in discussions, we can collectively assess the candidates’ strengths, identify areas for improvement, and collaboratively make the best hiring decision for our team.

This feature also provides a centralized repository of interview recordings, eliminating the need for manual note-taking or relying on individual recollections. This streamlined approach ensures that all interviewers have access to the same information, promoting consistency and alignment in their evaluations.

### Find Reliability with Google Meet

If you’re seeking video interview software, I’d recommend Google Meet. It’s a versatile platform with capabilities like video conferencing, screen sharing, and collaboration. Its integration with other Google applications such as Calendar and Drive makes scheduling and organizing interviews a breeze.

Google Meet also offers dependable performance as well as superb audio and video quality. Try it out and see how it can help you accelerate your video interview process.
