HireVue: Video interviews, skills assessments and interview scheduling for high-volume hiring.

Kickresume: Resumes and cover letters from templates and AI, in many languages.

A person makes the decision about a candidate: treat the automated score as one signal among several
A candidate's video recording is personal data: get consent and set a retention period
Older candidates and those with poor internet drop out of video interviews more often: offer an alternative

Remove the candidate's contacts from a resume for a client if the agency works on a presentation model
The subscription auto-renews for the full term: turn off renewal if you need it once
