Async video interviews are now table stakes for high-velocity hiring teams. We break down why the format works, how to set it up in 30 minutes, and what to measure to prove the impact to your CFO.
AI-powered candidate screening can either compound bias or actively reduce it. The difference is in the setup. Here's the playbook our customers use to ship EEOC-compliant AI screening.
Predictive Hiring= 0.74 on Performance Correlation
Most hiring teams can't tell you whether their interview process actually predicts job performance. We can — across our 2,400-hire benchmark, the correlation between AI interview score and 6-month performance is r = 0.74.
Customer support, retail, warehouses — when applications come in by the thousands, you can't hire fast enough to match. AI autopilot lets a 2-person team handle the load of 10.
Why Cognitive Assessments Beat Personality Tests for Hiring
DiSC, Myers-Briggs, the Big Five — personality tests are popular and predict almost nothing about job performance. Cognitive assessments predict everything. Here's the meta-analysis you need.
Outbound Recruiting with AI Voice Agents: A Field Report
We piloted AI voice agents for outbound recruiting calls across 8 customers. Conversion rates doubled, candidate experience scores stayed at 4.6/5, and recruiters got 4 hours per day back. Here's how.
Engagement Chains: Why Candidate Experience Is Your Sleeper Recruiting Strategy
The candidates you don't hire today become the candidates you can't reach tomorrow. Most recruiting teams ghost rejected applicants. The ones that don't get a 30%+ boost in re-engagement when matching roles open.
Engineering hiring teams are reporting a noticeable drop in take-home test signal. The cause: candidates using Copilot, ChatGPT or Claude. Here's how to detect it without abandoning the format.
Your recruiting platform handles PII for hundreds of candidates per month. GDPR aren't optional anymore. Here's what to require from your vendor and what to verify yourself.
Fixing Onboarding: The First 90 Days Predict the Next 5 Years
30% of new hires leave within the first year. The cause is almost always onboarding, not hiring. We break down the 90-day playbook that drops attrition by half.
“HRBlade rewired how we hire. Time-to-fill dropped from 45 days to 12. AI video interviews replaced an absurd number of recruiter screening calls — quality went up, my team doesn't burn out.”
VP People
“Engagement chains were the unlock for high-volume hiring. We process 2,000+ applications a month and recruiters only show up for finalists. Candidate experience scores went up too — we measure it.”
Head of Talent
“AI evaluation surfaces real signal at the top of funnel. Quality of hire rose 40% on our 6-month performance benchmark, and first-year attrition got cut in half. The predictive correlation tooling actually works.”
Director of People Operations
“We onboarded HRBlade in a single afternoon. No consultant, no migration project. The UI is intuitive enough that engineering managers can run requisitions themselves. Best HR tool we've adopted in five years.”
Founder & CEO
“Distributed evaluation across 6 cities used to be a calendar nightmare. Now everyone scores async, the AI rolls up consensus and flags variance. The amount of time saved on alignment meetings is enormous.”
Senior Recruiter
“Workday + Slack + SAP integrations went in cleanly via the open API. Coming from Greenhouse, the data-portability story alone made the switch worth it. Open API and clean export formats matter when you've outgrown a single tool.”
People Ops Lead
“Hiring across English and Arabic candidate flows used to require two completely separate stacks. With HRBlade's auto language detection, we run one pipeline and the AI agent switches per candidate. Game-changer.”
Talent Director
“We piloted the voice agent for outbound recruiting calls. <500ms latency means it actually feels like a conversation. Candidates rate it 4.6/5 and our outbound conversion rate doubled.”
Head of Recruiting
“The cognitive games turned out to be the strongest predictor of 6-month performance for our customer support hires — better than CV signal. We made it a required step for that role family.”
Chief People Officer
“Hiring senior engineers is brutal. The Digital Twin lets me rehearse the interview in 5 minutes before the real call. I show up sharper, candidates get a better experience, and our hire rate on senior offers went from 60% to 85%.”
