      Tips

      Hirevue offers the following advice: "All candidates applying to a position will receive the same set of questions, selected by the hiring company. Additionally, HireVue takes measures to prevent candidates from seeing these interview questions before they are taking an interview. These measures ensure that each candidate has the same amount of time to review the questions, and prepare their responses, giving all candidates the same interview experience and an equal shot at putting their best foot forward. This is an opportunity to share your story as a candidate. Maximize your comfort level and share your experiences and skills as naturally as possible."
