Willo Video Interviewing Reviews & Product Details

What I like best about Willo Video Interviewing is how it makes the hiring process faster and more inclusive. Candidates can record interviews in their own time, and hiring teams can review responses when it suits them. It’s a great balance of flexibility and efficiency.

Honestly, there isn’t much to dislike, but if I had to mention something, it would be that video interviews can sometimes feel a bit impersonal since you don’t get real-time interaction or feedback. That said, I understand it’s a great way to streamline the process and make it more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Before using Willo, our phone screens typically lasted 20 to 30 minutes, and sometimes stretched to 30 or even 45 minutes when candidates had difficulty being concise. After these calls, interviewers would write up feedback for the rest of the hiring team to review.

With Willo, we've saved significant time by limiting candidate responses to 2-3 minutes per question. Additionally, Willo enables later interviewers to watch the recorded videos, giving them a chance to observe candidates' communication skills firsthand and feel more confident about who they'll be meeting. It has allowed others to speak into hiring decisions to make a more confident hire. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was an easier way to edit interview questions. It doesn't feel user friendly to have to go through multiple pages before/after editing just to change a single question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Willo's generally easy-to-use interface, including easy commenting on various interview responses. For online choral auditions, the relatively high audio quality is also helpful. Our choral area uses Willo to process hundreds of online auditions each year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few bugs that can make the software difficult to use, including difficulty interfacing with the Apple iPad, a lack of options for how to rate interviewees (I would prefer a numerical rating system or the ability to determine our own rating system, as opposed to the five options given by Willo). Additionally, the videos auto-advance from question to question, which can cause difficulty when you need to re-hear a student's response to an audition question before moving onto the next question.

Willo has completely transformed the way we approach candidate screening. As a modern interviewing platform, it streamlines the hiring process with remarkable efficiency. It is exceptional at cutting down both time and costs without compromising on quality. The platform’s intuitive interface and smart automation features make it incredibly easy to set up screening questions, share interview links, and evaluate responses. We’ve seen faster turnaround times, better candidate insights, and more confident hiring decisions. We use Willo daily at Bott and co, and we focus on using the platform for all types of screening, internal and external. Faith at their customer support side is outstanding, we couldn't ask for more from her. Implementing Willo into our already seamlines hiring process was simple, easy and very welcomed by all managers, the integration was second to non. Their functions are also brilliant, my favourite being the 'natural delivery' screening that checks how natural candidates delivery is, allowing us to check for potential AI reliance rather than assistance. A great platform all round. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would not rely on Willo for a full interview process, we use this as a 1st stage interview screening, then invite candidates to attend the office or video call for a 2nd interview. Willo cuts down the time spent interviewing candidates in person but one limitation is the lack of real-time interaction. Because the platform relies on asynchronous video responses, it can sometimes miss the spontaneity and depth of live conversations. Especially when evaluating soft skills or cultural fit. For roles where interpersonal dynamics are key, teams may still need to supplement Willo with live interviews or add this as a 2nd stage. Having said this, I couldn't recommend Willo enough as a screening platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Willo Video Interviewing is extremely user-friendly, which was a deciding factor for us compared to other platforms. The versatility of response options, allowing video or text, and the ability to edit questions easily is fantastic. It has notably helped us save time in the prescreening process by letting us focus more on sourcing and searching for qualified candidates. Additionally, the platform looks professional and helps us gain a deeper insight into the candidates by showcasing their personality and communication skills.

I find some minor formatting issues frustrating when trying to include job descriptions for each prescreen. The formatting often gets messed up when copying and pasting from programs like Word. I would appreciate more formatting options to ensure the content looks presentable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Willo Video Interviewing is its ease of use and intuitive design. The platform makes scheduling and conducting interviews straightforward, while providing a seamless experience for both candidates and recruiters. It saves time, reduces administrative effort, and allows the team to focus on assessing talent rather than managing logistics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I need to make edits, I have to go through everything again and republish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it is easy to use and it saves my team a significant time. We use it daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is really nothing that I do not like, most of the issues come from the person who is meant to do the interview. Surprising how many people do not like doing videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been using Willo for a few months now, and it's been a game changer for streamlining our hiring process. The platform is intuitive and easy to use for both our team and the candidates. The ability to collect video responses asynchronously has saved us a lot of scheduling headaches and made it easier to compare candidates fairly.

The user interface is clean, and setting up interview questions is fast and straightforward. We also appreciate the branding options and the candidate experience — we’ve received positive feedback from applicants, which says a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support has been responsive when we had questions, and overall, Willo has become a valuable part of our recruitment toolkit. Highly recommend if you're looking for a modern, flexible hiring solution. But i would like a better pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Willo lets me review interviews at my convenience, eliminating the need for cumbersome wetransfer downloads or generating reports through our ATS. Candidates have mentioned that the platform is easy to use, and our recruitment team can review more than 400 video interviews each week. This makes Willo one of the tools we rely on most frequently.

Very little, the only room for improvement is a reporting dashboard, but this is being worked on! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the straightforward setup of Willo Video Interviewing; it seamlessly integrates into our workflows. Its flexibility in allowing candidates to respond via various formats is impressive. The ease of sharing tools is beneficial, and it's accessible to different hiring managers. I also value the user-friendly functionality and the supportive service.

I dislike that there is no automatic integration with our existing Applicant Tracking System (ATS). It requires user manipulation, which can be time-consuming and inefficient for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
