Why Momentum started making use of one-way video interviews

Before insurance company Momentum started making use of Wamly’s one-way video interview software, it completed a company-wide review of its recruitment process.The review found three major themes within the company:

Many candidates weren’t always sure what Momentum is or what it does. There wasn’t a story or narrative about the company and what it seeks to achieve.
The recruitment process for candidates wasn’t great with many waiting days to get any response from the company.
There was a need to digitise the process for record-keeping and efficiency purposes.

After the review, Momentum changed the entire process they used to hire by firstly making use of a technology portal to get all the applications and CVs.Once the applications were received, instead of phoning candidates or meeting them on zoom, they started making use of Wamly’s one-way video interview software.The final candidates who came through that process would then be invited for face-to-face interviews and psychometric testing before making a hire.Using Wamly, Momentum was able to brand the entire experience - telling potential employees a story of the company’s culture and values and thereby building brand awareness.
