More job interviewees are facing a new vexation: one-way video interviews. Job seekers submit their recordings into the void. There’s no one on the other end to respond in real time.
If you’re a “Sex and the City” fan, you may recall a 2001 episode from the original TV series. Mr. Big complains that the woman he’s pursuing does not answer his calls or return his messages.This is the power of one-way communication: One party exercises more control over the timing and nature of their interaction.
Young job hunters may welcome these platforms. Perhaps they’re accustomed to curating their image on social media. Or they’re comfortable filming themselves on their devices and seeing their talking head fill the screen. “Sometimes you can take a break,” said Benjy Gillman, co-founder and chief executive of myInterview, based in Tel Aviv, Israel. “It depends on the employer’s discretion.”
Regardless of how much time you’re allowed to respond, you may feel nervous recording your answers. Gillman’s advice: Radiate authenticity. If you rely too heavily on scripts or try to sound perfect, you risk coming across as canned or fake.
