When you recruit, how confident are you choosing a potential employee to face to face interview based just on a CV? After all, you are booking valuable time out of your diary to meet them, yet you haven’t seen them, you haven’t heard them, and you have no idea whether they will fit your team, let alone your company culture.

The Needle Online provides a unique video interview tool that supports employers and recruiters in screening and selecting prospective employees quicker and more effectively during the recruitment process. Why not see and hear the candidates before you select them for interview.

Our video interview platform is powered from a job board, so companies can showcase their job and their company profile, but in addition, ask five killer questions they want candidates to respond to. Applicants record their responses using our tools via their webcam and we make the video interviews readily accessible in an applicant tracking system, to be assessed by you and shared with other stakeholders involved in the final decision.

The best part about our solution is it wraps the questions and answers up in a seamless, single video. Simply put, you can view and compare all the interviews on virtually any Internet connected device, enabling you to make informed decisions regardless of whether you are in or out of the office.

We are looking to win £300k worth of business over the next 12 months and are seeking funding to grow our business through product development and a strong sales portfolio to reach a three year turnover target of £1.5m.
