Retooling the Hiring Process

Real-time video interviews retain their prevalence, at 54%, a figure unchanged since 2018 despite the pandemic, according to SHL’s Year Over Year Talent Trends Report, while structured interview methods have experienced a decline, dropping to 56% in 2023 from 76% in 2018.

“Hiring teams have long had the flexibility to use interview tools of their choosing and the capability to ask any question, whenever desired. Unfortunately, this creates many variables and risks that could lead to non-compliance with the EEOC,” says Sheilin Herrick, Head of Technology Hiring Solutions for SHL. “In the worst of cases, it can introduce adverse impacts and inconsistent hiring outcomes.”

So what’s next? “In 2024, we expect HR and department teams to closely evaluate the interviewing tools used in the hiring process to ensure control and relevance to the job,” said Herrick. “ This will improve outcomes for candidates and reduce legal risk for teams.”
