Using Teamtailor, you have the option to ask your candidates video questions that they answer by recording/uploading a video. This could be a great way to get a more personal presentation of your candidates.

You can include video questions in the initial job application, as well as include them in a questionnaire that you send to candidates through email.

Create a video question

You can create a video question in all the places where you can create questions: in your general settings to make it available for your team, or when you add the question to a job, questionnaire, etc.

Video questions in an application form

To attach a video question to a job’s application form, head over to the Application step, click on + Select question, and choose + Create question. Here you can choose to create a question with Video as the question type.

The candidate will then be asked to record or upload a video as a part of the job application.

Video questions in a questionnaire

You can also attach a video question to a questionnaire. Start by navigating to Messages in the action bar. Once the message has been composed, click the question icon to attach the video question. The candidate will be asked to record or upload the video via the link attached to the email.

Answering a video question

When the candidate answers this question, they will have the option of recording/uploading a video. If the candidate chooses to record the video, they will also be presented with the option to re-do the recording.
