Q: GDPR - Where are you data centres located?
For GDPR Purposes, where exactly are your Data Centres located? I understand from your privacy policy you may retain information. What kind of information are you retaining? Is it the videos candidates upload? How long is this retained for and when is it deleted? What's the purpose of retaining this information?
Hello, it came to my attention that your privacy policy is generic and while that is fine for a lawyer, it does not look like a template which was edited in favor of the people using hirevire. Please see an example from privacy.com themselves, how they commit clearly to only 4 short and sweet usages of user data, there is still lots of "lingo" for the lawyers, but the clear notice of limitations to what you may do with the interviewee's input media is crucial for their comfort level. https://www.privacy.com/privacy-policy
The main policy term that stops applicants from giving media input is the following: "In order to use it for marketing purposes of Hirevire." Secondarily, the following has reportedly made them uncomfortable: "In order to analyse and improve our product and service for users."
A: Improving the formatting of our privacy policy is on our long term roadmap. Thank you for this example.
We will by the end of this month allow customers to add their privacy policies to the job posts instead of ours. This feature request can be followed here for updates. https://hirevire.canny.io/feature-requests/p/allow-for-custom-privacy-policy-to-be-added
For technical interviews, it is crucial that the interviewee/job applicant gets to show their work or their thought process during some screen share. Enabling this feature as a recording answer will multiply the use-cases beyond mere interpersonal Q&A (which is behavioral or untested claims of technical traits) into all the technical domains which candidates really need to be tested for! So please, will you consider to enable screen share recordings? Can be just a chrome tab anything is much better than nothing =).
You can already collect screen recordings in Hirevire. Can be a chrome tab or even the full desktop.
Here's some details https://hirevire.canny.io/changelog/collect-screen-recordings
Right now screen recordings are only available for answers from desktop/laptop computers. Mobile users are now given clear instructions to move to a desktop device to finish the application.
Q: Possible to use for capturing video testimonials?
Is it possible to leverage/use this platform to capture user (customer) generated video testimonials? I run a small marketing agency with clients across different industries and I want to offer them a service that is capable of capturing video testimonials from their customers. Would this use case be possible with your platform in some shape or form? Please provide whatever details you can. Thank you.
Yes, technically it is possible to collect user testimonials using Hirevire. We have a few customers who are using Hirevire to collect testimonials as well for onboarding new customers.
I would not recommend using Hirevire as your primary tool to do this though - since there are better platforms out there like Senja.io for eg that are geared towards only collecting and sharing testimonials. But if you're already planning to use Hirevire for hiring, the software is flexible enough to be used in different ways.
Thanks so much for your prompt response and transparency. I knew it would be a shot in the dark, but I wanted to inquire regardless. I will surely check out other options. Thanks again and glad to see the community has rated you 5 tacos and that's not always easy here :-)
A: You have the option to archive jobs - to make room for new jobs. The 10 jobs limit is for active jobs only.

Q: One-On-One demo calls tailored specifically for agencies
Hello! We bought the 10 Codes yesterday and would like to receive a call in which we are getting onboarded properly and setting up the tool so that we can start with it in a swift way and keep it for our company. Any link or place where we can go?
You can choose a time that works for you here. https://hirevire.com/request-demo/
Best way to get in touch is the chat widget on our homepage/marketing website - or the contact support option inside the admin dashboard (available under the my account dropdown)
A: While we don't have a native integration with Rippling yet, there could be easy ways such as setting up an automated email template within Rippling for new applicants to be sent a Hirevire Interview email.
The submitted Hirevire application being sent back to Rippling could be possible via our webhooks - but might need some engineering effort. We're happy to investigate with you if this is needed.
Hi, just got the tier 10! Happy with that. But 2 important questions: - Were is the storage located? For my customers i need European locations. Were is Hirevire loacted with there storage? - Is it possible to add my own privacy police? I need this because of the gdpr and contracts. Regards!
We are planning to have full whitelabel - at some point in time - perhaps that's when adding your own privacy policy will make sense to be added to the roadmap.
Right now - since Hirevire is where the videos and the data is stored, the privacy policy that the applicants agree to has to reflect that.
Q: API integration / documentation
Hi,
Is there an option to post a new job using forms integration (e.g., WP Forms or others) via webhook/API? I couldn’t find any API integration or documentation.
Unfortunaly posting jobs via external forms is a unavailable with Hirevire.
The Pabbly connect ( and other integrations ) allow for invitations to be automated via email to candidates.
If you're expecting your clients to view applicants to a particular job posting only - you can share all the applications that are received via one shared link
Thank you for your reply. I see that in the "Integration" section, you have "Custom API." Could you explain more about that, as I couldn't find any documentation regarding your API?
Thanks.
Q: Response to application as Videoask
Have you considered implementing a video response to the candidate directly in the platform like on videoask?
Sorry - since it'll be tough to give out individual responses to 100s of candidates - we've not considered adding video responses to candidates.
That said - one video on the job post page and one video the thank you pages (on completing the submission) are included in all Appsumo plans.
We do have the option to as each question as a video as well - unfortunately recording the questions on our platform is not available as part of the lifetime deal. We allow for unlimited questions on each job post - and this could lead to unlimited cost overheads for us to keep those videos hosted forever.
We do allow you to embed videos that are hosted on another platform (like youtube) for each question as a part of the description for each question. This is allowed for LTD plans. Here's our changelog item about this feature. https://hirevire.canny.io/changelog/questions-can-now-have-additional-videos-text-links-code-blocks-and-embeds
It would be very interesting to include the ability to respond directly to the appointee via video confirming or not confirming the application and also perhaps asking for some clarifications and thus being able to have an asynchronous interview. I mainly use this as a video response to applicants for my courses. This could also be put in for life but with deletion after 30 days. Thank you
Do you send out the same video to all the folks you are confirming and not confirming?
What software do you use today to send out the videos?
We do have email templates - that can send out emails to shortlisted or rejected candidates - or to candidates is any custom stage you choose to move them to.
The email templates could have a link to the static video
Q: When was the last HireVire update? Eying the platform for paid recruiting but very worried about reliability..
Got to question 8 of 9 of demo on mobile and received errors:
navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia is not a function. (In 'navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia({video:{displaySurface:"monitor",width:{ideal:3840,max:3840},height:{ideal:2160,max:2160},frameRate:{ideal:60,max:60}}})',
So I scanned the QR to resume on another device and got a similar error.
navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia' is
An unexpected error occurred while trying to capture your screen. Closing and reopening your browser might resolve temporary issues. (It didn’t)
When was the last time the platform has had major updates? The roadmap reflects little has been done over the years.
I offer paid recruiting but I couldn’t progress through the demo to get sample responses via email. Concerns that paying client will eventually get the same are valid.
It seems you got this issue on two different mobile devices, while trying the screen recording functionality. Is that understanding accurate?
Unfortunately screen recording responses don't work on mobile devices - we'll improve the errors around these early next week.
Multiple updates are made to hirevire each month - more details on our changelog here https://hirevire.canny.io/changelog
Your concerns regarding your customers are valid. I'd recommend trying to finish the demo on a desktop device. Let me know here or on our support chat if that does not work.
I am using Hirevire for my actual project. They respond to me every day I need. Sometimes, they can improve the platform immediately. They also listen to my advice. At this moment, I have over 60 interviewees in a single project. I am happy with the result. I've collected lots of data from the interview.
Only the screen recording type of response collection don't (currently) work on mobile devices.
We have a variety of response types (other than the screen recording responses)- standard response types such as Single-line text, links, numbers, dates, multiple choice and media response types like videos, audio, file uploads and rich text. These work on mobile - is what I meant.
Screen recording questions have now been updated to indicate that they can be completed only on desktop devices
