HireVue Named HR Product of the Year

Human Resource Executive ® Magazine Names HireVue’s Newest Offering 2009 HR Product of the Year

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – (Business Wire) September 21, 2009 – HireVue, the leading provider of video interviewing solutions, today announced that HireVue 3.0, a video interview management solution, has been named one of the 2009 Top HR Products of the Year by Human Resource Executive ® magazine. Selected from a record number of entries, HireVue was chosen after thorough evaluation by the Human Resource Executive ® editorial staff.

“This is a tremendous honor,” said Mark Newman, CEO and co-founder of HireVue. “HireVue 3.0 is designed to help employers re-think the entire hiring cycle and save time and money while making a better quality hire. This new offering was designed in close collaboration with our customers to give their hiring teams greater flexibility and power to drive results. We’re very proud to accept this award.”

Employers use HireVue to screen candidates with Virtual Video Interviews where the employer defines a set of questions that are answered by the candidate over the Internet via webcam. Clients also use HireVue’s Live Video Interviews to interview candidates via online videoconference. Both types of interviews are recorded and stored in HireVue’s proprietary and secure system for review. Interviews can be taken from any location with an Internet connection and many employers set up on-site video kiosks for high volume hiring. Webcams and technical support are included with every video interview. The HireVue solution can be used directly from www.hirevue.com or through the newly announced integration with Taleo Enterprise.

“Human Resource Executive has been evaluating HR products and conducting this competition for more than 20 years. Our goal has always been to identify products and services that clearly offer value to the HR community while demonstrating innovation, and HireVue does just that,” explained David Shadovitz, editor-in-chief of Human Resource Executive ®. “It takes the hiring process to the next level and greatly simplifies interview management, communication and collaboration while reducing time-to-hire and costs. We’re pleased to honor HireVue as a Top HR Product of the Year for its innovation and the resulting value it provides to today’s human resources professionals.”

HireVue will be presented with the 2009 Top HR Product Award at a special luncheon held on September 30, at the HR Technology Conference in Chicago. HireVue will also be demonstrating its video interviewing platform at the conference, September 30 – October 1 at McCormick Place in Chicago.
