Emotion recognition AI needs to enhance accuracy and ensure that the right candidates are hired.
Analysis of the candidate’s emotional reactions while answering questions, enables an assessment of personal traits independently of any unconscious bias.

This gives the recruiter a general idea of whether the candidate is a good fit for the position.
The 5-minute video saves recruiters 60 minutes per candidate, helping avoid interviews with candidates who would be inappropriate for the job.

Video interviews with smarter analytics based on cognitive emotion AI saved interviewers time.

Eliminating the need to commute to an office interview was another advantage.
Statistics show that the decision to hire a candidate can often be made within the first few seconds of a video interview.
