It gives us more transparency with the hiring panel, and we are able to assess candidates in a more timely manner. I like the fast forward option in the video. The lead time - we have to give candidates an appropriate timeframe to complete it. Gives us more clarity in communication skills

What I like best about Willo Video Interviewing is how it makes the hiring process faster and more inclusive. Candidates can record interviews in their own time, and hiring teams can review responses when it suits them. It’s a great balance of flexibility and efficiency. Honestly, there isn’t much to dislike, but if I had to mention something, it would be that video interviews can sometimes feel a bit impersonal since you don’t get real-time interaction or feedback. That said, I understand it’s a great way to streamline the process and make it more efficient. Willo Video Interviewing solves the problem of time and scheduling constraints in the hiring process. It allows both recruiters and candidates to connect asynchronously — candidates can record their responses at a time that suits them, and recruiters can review interviews when convenient. For me, that means greater efficiency, less back-and-forth scheduling, and a smoother candidate experience. It also helps standardize the process, ensuring every applicant gets a fair and consistent opportunity to present themselves.

What I like best about Willo Video Interviewing is its ease of use and intuitive design. The platform makes scheduling and conducting interviews straightforward, while providing a seamless experience for both candidates and recruiters. It saves time, reduces administrative effort, and allows the team to focus on assessing talent rather than managing logistics. When I need to make edits, I have to go through everything again and republish. Willo Video Interviewing solves the challenge of coordinating and conducting interviews efficiently, reducing the time and administrative effort involved in the hiring process. It allows candidates to complete interviews at their convenience while providing the team with a structured, consistent way to assess talent. This has significantly improved our recruitment efficiency, enabling us to focus on evaluating candidates rather than managing logistics.

The ease of use of the platform from an interviewer & interviewee point of view. It is quick to set up & input the relevant questions for the participant to answer. When reviewing the videos the controls available are great helping to pinpoint sections of interest quickly. Sometimes the participants feel strange recording themselves & struggle to answer the questions in the same way as with an human interaction. Time constraints when reviewing candidates for further interviewing stages, it helps pick out the wheat from the chaff.

I appreciate Willo's generally easy-to-use interface, including easy commenting on various interview responses. For online choral auditions, the relatively high audio quality is also helpful. Our choral area uses Willo to process hundreds of online auditions each year. There are a few bugs that can make the software difficult to use, including difficulty interfacing with the Apple iPad, a lack of options for how to rate interviewees (I would prefer a numerical rating system or the ability to determine our own rating system, as opposed to the five options given by Willo). Additionally, the videos auto-advance from question to question, which can cause difficulty when you need to re-hear a student's response to an audition question before moving onto the next question. Willo helps the BYU Choral area sort through hundreds of online auditions before the beginning of each school year, streamlining our review process and helping us keep track of relevant audition information throughout the multi-week process.

Very easy and convenient to use, both in terms of creating the interviews and also sharing the submissions with others. It’s not yet integrated with our ATS (UKG Pro), but still very easy to use. It’s convenient to send screening questions to multiple candidates that would otherwise be a more manual process.

It saves our membership committees time in reviewing new applicants for membership. Because we use it for over 20+ BNI Chapters, It would be great if we could preconfigure a setting the applicant can choose, and then it sends the videos based upon our preconfigured settings to the right people. Solves the issue of trying to coordinate calendars to conduct the interviews with multiple people.

Willo has completely transformed the way we approach candidate screening. As a modern interviewing platform, it streamlines the hiring process with remarkable efficiency. It is exceptional at cutting down both time and costs without compromising on quality. The platform’s intuitive interface and smart automation features make it incredibly easy to set up screening questions, share interview links, and evaluate responses. We’ve seen faster turnaround times, better candidate insights, and more confident hiring decisions. We use Willo daily at Bott and co, and we focus on using the platform for all types of screening, internal and external. Faith at their customer support side is outstanding, we couldn't ask for more from her. Implementing Willo into our already seamlines hiring process was simple, easy and very welcomed by all managers, the integration was second to non. Their functions are also brilliant, my favourite being the 'natural delivery' screening that checks how natural candidates delivery is, allowing us to check for potential AI reliance rather than assistance. A great platform all round. I would not rely on Willo for a full interview process, we use this as a 1st stage interview screening, then invite candidates to attend the office or video call for a 2nd interview. Willo cuts down the time spent interviewing candidates in person but one limitation is the lack of real-time interaction. Because the platform relies on asynchronous video responses, it can sometimes miss the spontaneity and depth of live conversations. Especially when evaluating soft skills or cultural fit. For roles where interpersonal dynamics are key, teams may still need to supplement Willo with live interviews or add this as a 2nd stage. Having said this, I couldn't recommend Willo enough as a screening platform. Traditional hiring often involves hours of scheduling, conducting, and reviewing interviews. Willo replaces this completely. Willo is built to handle large applicant pools efficiently. For example, in one internal campaign, 1,496 applicants were invited to submit via Willo, resulting in 249 video submissions, this lead to 36 in person interview invites, 9 turned up to interview, we hired 3. Therefore it puts a barrier between us and candidates that aren't truly interested in the role, but simply click 'apply all' on Indeed. Willo allows candidates to interview on their own terms, reducing scheduling friction and making the process more inclusive. This flexibility is especially valuable for remote or global hiring, where time zones and availability can be barriers.
