Clients Benefit Enormously From VirtualEmployee.com's New Video Conferencing Facility
VirtualEmployee.com's revolutionary new concept of video conferencing has taken outsourcing up a few notches. With clients now actually seeing their candidates face-to-face in front of them as they conduct their interviews, the geographical and time zone difference suddenly seems to have disappeared.
- Wilmington, NC (1888PressRelease) October 12, 2011 - VirtualEmployee.com's recently launched video conferencing facility is the potent new tool that is creating a very favourable response with its worldwide clientele. VE's state-of-the-art Video Conferencing room is where 'east meets west' and the client interview part of the entire recruitment process is conducted. Needless to add, the response from the clients has been gratifying since they can actually see their candidates in front of them. Without a doubt, video conferencing is the new face (and future) of outsourcing.
A quick chat with VE's recruitment team revealed several interesting facts.
Both the client and candidates were very comfortable in this new format. Seeing is believing for most people, and when the working relationship is a long-distance one, a visual acts as a reassurance of sorts. The perception of geographical distance and the time zone difference simply dissolves. A few candidates did get a bit conscious of the fact that they were being watched, but the clients felt totally comfortable. Video conferencing helped the client to be able to read the body language of their potential employee just the way they would do if they were doing the face-to-face interview in real life.
That video conferencing has been an unqualified success is proved by the significant increase in clients' hiring the candidates after interacting with them via video conferencing.
The advantages of this video conferencing have been two-fold. Firstly, the client can read the body language of the candidate along with their facial expressions. This helps change the candidate from a faceless entity to someone with whom they can actually have a real-life conversation. Secondly, the candidate is free to write/ take down notes about the client's technical requirements just in case he is assigned to do a test later.
This service has become very popular with our clients, and is free, although there are some clients who actually request for the video service to be switched off. They are in a minority and are just comfortable interacting with the candidate with a Skype call. Those who see the candidates on the big screen and talk with them, feel happy and assured that VE is for real.
On the whole, VirtualEmployee.com's video conferencing facility has made this remote staffing company's presence felt in the country for the client. The employee may be 'virtual' but is reassuring real!
