Recruitment has changed drastically in the past few years. From paper resumes to video interview platforms, and now to AI-powered video interviews, organizations are adopting smarter methods to hire the right talent. In today’s competitive market, companies need efficient, scalable, and unbiased hiring solutions. This is where AI video interviews come in.
In this blog by Niyuk, we’ll explore what AI video interviews are, how they differ from traditional video interviews, the role of video interview platforms, and why businesses are increasingly adopting AI-powered video interviews to streamline recruitment.
What is an AI Video Interview?
An AI video interview is a modern recruitment method where candidates record or attend interviews through a platform that uses Artificial Intelligence to analyze their responses. Unlike standard video interviews, which are manually reviewed by recruiters, AI-powered video interviews use algorithms to assess various factors such as:
-
Communication skills
-
Facial expressions and tone of voice
-
Keyword usage in answers
-
Confidence and body language
-
Personality and cultural fit
The goal is to provide data-driven insights to help recruiters make better hiring decisions faster.
