Considered Both Products
HireVue
Chose HireVue
HireVue allows for both virtual recording as well as live. It is pretty nice to send an email to the client and then wait for the response.
Chose HireVue
HireVue isn't really in the same category at the other programs I listed so it's hard to compare them because they are all leveraged for very different purposes. HireVue was selected (to my knowledge) for its ease of use and the video interview recording function and I haven't …
Chose HireVue
I was not initially a part of the selection process for HireVue. Skype for Business is often recommended by the business since it is the current internal messaging platform. Unfortunately with Skype for Business we are not able to interview external candidates, evaluate …
Chose HireVue
HireVue only allows 4 people total for Live Interviewers. A lot of managers ask to set up WebExs to include a larger interview team. However, HireVue is better than WebEx due to the fact that you can send out OnDemand tests to the candidates prior to submitting them to the …
Chose HireVue
I have used Rivs in the past and really thought it was a great tool to use. However, HireVue has more case studies, allows you to engage with the community of Hirevue and is always giving pointers/tips. I felt a little on my own with Rivs unless the rep was calling and checking …
Chose HireVue
We went with HireVue because they are great at what they do! They have great support and truly care about the customer's brand. If you don't have a brand yet, or are just starting out - that is great too! They help you. The other companies did not do that. As a bonus they offer …
Chose HireVue
HireVue is by far a much better product which is more user friendly and reliable. Excellent customer service. You come for the product you stay for the service.
Chose HireVue
Gray Peak doesn't even compare to HireVue. Where I think Gray Peak is a 2 or 3 out of 10, I am absolutely convinced that HireVue is a 10! Yes there are probably some tweaks for HireVue but this product is truly amazing. It impresses me each day with the volume that we are able …
Chose HireVue
Never seen another product. Won't need to either.
Chose HireVue
We looked at Green Job Interview and another company but I don't recall their name. HireVue was more expensive in cost but overall value was better. They are a larger company with more support and have been established longer.
Chose HireVue
Hirevue is user friendly, easy to customize and supports our company brand and culture.
Chose HireVue
We haven't reviewed too many other competing products in this space. The feature set of HireVue addressed most of our needs fairly early on in our evaluation process.
Chose HireVue
ApplicantPro is a good recruiting program but HireVue does it better when it comes to seeing how the candidate really is. So instead of using ApplicantPro's interview software we have been able to use both of them hand in hand which has been a really nice combination. …
Chose HireVue
We looked at other video options and this was BY FAR the best. We also received a ton of positive feedback from other people who used the product.
Chose HireVue
We prefer HireVue due to the ease of use and the recording function as compared to Skype. Zoom is a platform one of our clients elected to go with and already had in place, I can't say we fully evaluated it, however, my limited knowledge would say the two are comparable.
Chose HireVue
As this is my first time in recruiting, I personally have not used similar products to HireVue. I can image that HireVue's simplicity and user friendly application is definitely something that makes this tool unique compared to other companies. HireVue also has excellent …
Chose HireVue
HireVue is much more innovative and new compared to the aforementioned products. I enjoy using HireVue because it's new software, and it is constantly changing and being updated.
Chose HireVue
I do not have experience with similar products.
Chose HireVue
I have never used any other one-way products, so I can't compare. We also don't use HireVue for live interviewing purposes only for one-way interviewing. I would be interested in seeing how one-way interviewing compares to live interviewing. In addition, how HireVue compares to …
Chose HireVue
Our current cost point is appealing and we have only received positive feedback from users and hiring managers. No real reason to switch to another company at this time.
Chose HireVue
N/A - we've only used HireVue. We've talked to others at conferences but their product couldn't compare to HireVue so we didn't go any further with them.
Chose HireVue
Originally we liked the idea of having video interviews, but found we lost some good applicants because of it. This is strictly because of our particular hiring process. HireVue can possibly be very successful for other industries.
WileyPLUS
Chose WileyPLUS
I entered "Connect and MyLab" in the previous question, but it won't take it for some reason. At any rate, they are very similar, and WileyPLUS does have a slight advantage because it integrates with Canvas.
Chose WileyPLUS
As these are tied directly to the textbooks, their availability is the reason I chose them for a specific purpose.
Chose WileyPLUS
WileyPLUS is very user-friendly.
Chose WileyPLUS
I don't select the text, but I like WileyPLUS. It is user-friendly, and the program managers are responsive to feedback for their updates. I've used several other texts including Pearson and Cengage; in reality, the interfaces and functionality of these programs are very …
Chose WileyPLUS
WileyPLUS is more user-friendly in my opinion.
Chose WileyPLUS
I like the mechanistic approach and taught that way for several years. Klein makes a nice meeting point between the traditional, by-the-functional-group way of approaching the material and the mechanistic approach with common patterns pointed out and grouped along the way. It …
Chose WileyPLUS
They all have similar capabilities. The differences seem to be more in the interface and reliability of the online grader.
Chose WileyPLUS
It is much better - it is much more user friendly.
Chose WileyPLUS
WileyPLUS is great for integration with Wiley textbooks. Unfortunately, it does not integrate with Sakai learning management system.
Chose WileyPLUS
While using Connect, I felt like a number. McGraw is such a huge company, so I did not get personalized service. Wiley is a smaller company, and I feel like an important person to them, based on the good service I receive from them.
Chose WileyPLUS
I've used Pearson, but WileyPlus support is amazing. Both instructor and student support whereas it's hard to get through to Pearson. Also, the online activities such as interactive tutorials and homework walkthrough videos within WileyPlus are great.
Chose WileyPLUS
The overall content is identical to others but the good customer service at wileyPLUS provides and the ease to use made it easier to opt for wileyPLUS.
Chose WileyPLUS
WileyPLUS is just heads over the other options.
Chose WileyPLUS
I am not familiar with the Pathbrite version of Cengage, but previous Cengage products left us better off on our own which is why we switched to WileyPLUS.
Chose WileyPLUS
WileyPLUS is far better than one competing product I have used and noticeably better than a second competing product I have tested. I prefer not to name the other products. It is much easier to operate from an instructor perspective. Given the low level of questions it …
Chose WileyPLUS
Each has its own strengths. I am just so used to WileyPLUS that it would not be a fair comparison as I have not explored Connect as well as I have WileyPLUS.
Chose WileyPLUS
There are a few LMS's that are making inroads. What sets Wiley apart is that it checks more of the boxes.

Retention check
Chose WileyPLUS
I am far more impressed with the quality, and depth of the materials. Other products tend to have few resources for students as they are all the same -whether in the graded homework, adaptive practice or the provided test banks. I also find other products have really …
Chose WileyPLUS
I have found WileyPLUS much more user-friendly than competing products such as OWL or Mastering.
Chose WileyPLUS
We have used Pearson's MyLabs/Revel. But we use them for other disciplines where Wiley is not necessarily in the market. Both platforms have evolved, but I feel WileyPLUS has been more impressive as of late.

HireVue was very well suited for my interviewing process with my current company for both my initial hire and my lateral move within the organization. It was very convenient given where I am geographically located to interview with our corporate office in Rhode Island. It provided the convenience of interviewing remotely for the opening posted.

It's a good platform that has some very good content. We use Canvas as our learning management platform. It is nice to be able to integrate some of the pre-build WileyPLUS course modules into our Canvas course. Other publishers are good too and they sync with Canvas, but I find Wiley's Canvas modules easy to use and customize.

Pros
  • OnDemand Interviews is a great feature that lets you set up video/multiple choice/codevue questions. You send it to the candidates and they are able to take the interview on their time and in the comfort of their own home.
  • HireVue and HireVue Pro apps. This is a great tool for manager and candidates to take/review interviews on the go.
  • HireVue has the ability to upload candidates via a CVS file, which is nice when you have tons of applicants.

  • Great instructor support and training.
  • Seek instructor feedback and input and keep implementing new updates.
  • Adaptive Practice definitely helps student success and brings consistency across multiple sections, often taught by new part-time instructors.
  • Integration into LMS has made the experience seamless for students and added the ease of automatic input in to the LMS gradebook.

Cons
  • I would like to be able to add more than one person to a video at once. Yes it's easy now, I just think it would be easier to blast through all of the info then hit "save."
  • Not sure why it says "save" instead of "send" when sending out a video interview.
  • I'm really trying to find weaknesses and that is why tried to be picky... If I had one more weakness I'd say I want a way to delete old users from showing up. Archiving is not good enough. There should be a delete button.

  • Integration could be a little challenging at times
  • More quantitative examples-excel based questions. This is just for the book that I use so it should not be considered a missing functionality.
  • More algorithmic questions. This is just for the book that I use so it should not be considered a missing functionality.

24-7 support is available by phone, chat, or email. They also hold annual events which I have been blessed to attend twice. The staff is excellent. They are knowledgeable and genuinely care about you and your students. There are online forums for instructors to collaborate, learn, and have fun. Instructors receive gift cards for their participation too!

HireVue was selected (to my knowledge) for its ease of use and the video interview recording function and I haven't had any major issues with the platform so I think it performs fine, but there's always room for improvement.

I like the mechanistic approach and taught that way for several years. Klein makes a nice meeting point between the traditional, by-the-functional-group way of approaching the material and the mechanistic approach with common patterns pointed out and grouped along the way. It is one of the best, clearly written texts on Organic Chemistry on the market!! It isn't overly dry and intimidating, but more conversational - like a tutor guiding you through the foundational topic or thought process. The graphics are clear and understandable with good use of color. The canvas integration is wonderful! The adaptive practice is growing on me - I started a skeptic, but students really like the by-learning-objective feedback. From term to term, you can easily turn your homework assignments over for the next term if you like to assign specific questions.

Return on Investment
  • Time to fill has been reduced/ shortened since we are able to screen more candidates quicker.
  • Time to schedule has been shortened as candidates are able to self-schedule their own interviews with a hiring manager; no more chasing people through phone calls to coordinate multiple schedules.
  • Candidate reach has been greatly enhanced - we can reach more candidates than we ever could with traditional phone screening.

  • Before Wiley Plus, my students didn't do homework, because it was not possible for me to grade all their work. Now they do it to earn points needed to pass the class.
  • Before Adaptive Assignment, my students really struggled with the multiple-choice part of the exam. Now my students have the opportunity to practice a plethora of questions provided to them in Adaptive Assignment. Now the exam grades are much better!
