Kira Talent is a new online interviewing platform that allows admissions officers or hiring managers to record video questions and send them to candidates through email or embed them in their online application process. Candidates upon opening the link can view the questions and reply back through video, but the whole process is timed so once they start they can't stop. These short videos are sent back to employers who can rate, share and compare the incoming pool of candidates within the company. By having timed questions, Kira mimics the real time interview feel while providing time and cost savings to the admissions or hiring team.
