Shortlists get second-guessed
A client reading a CV and your notes has to take your word for it. Putting a face and a voice to the shortlist builds trust faster.
One-way video interviews for recruitment agencies
Screen candidates on video before you put them forward, then send your client a private link to watch their answers. Clients see the person, not just your write-up.
The problem
A CV and a summary only go so far
Clients want to know how a candidate comes across before they give up an hour for an interview. Agencies want to show that, without booking every candidate in twice.
Screening calls add up
Across several roles and clients, first-round calls fill every recruiter’s week before anyone is put forward.
Client interviews get wasted
When a client meets someone who isn’t right, it costs them an hour and costs you credibility.
How AsyncView helps
Screen once, share with the client
Run the first round as a one-way video interview, review with your team, and send your client a link to watch the candidates you recommend.
Client share links
Send a private link that shows a candidate’s answers. No account needed, and it closes after 3, 7, 14 or 30 days, or when you turn it off.
Your notes stay yours
Clients watching a share link don’t see your team’s ratings or notes, or the candidate’s email address.
Question sets per client
Save a question set for each client or role type and import it into every new vacancy in seconds.
No per-seat fees
Add every recruiter as a user on any plan. You pay for interviews, not for headcount.
Consistent assessment
Every candidate for a role answers the same questions, and every recruiter rates on the same 1 to 5 scale.
One pipeline, every role
Keep each vacancy as a job, and filter and search interviews by job, status and deadline.
A real screen, shown with a demo company and invented candidates.
In depth
How agencies get more from a first-round video
An agency’s value is its judgement: knowing which three candidates out of thirty are worth a client’s time. A recorded first round lets you show that judgement, not just describe it. Instead of a CV and a paragraph of notes, the client watches the candidate answer real questions, and your recommendation stands on evidence.
It also saves your recruiters’ week. Screening calls across several open roles add up fast, and each one needs booking. With a one-way interview, every candidate for a role gets the same questions on the same day, your team reviews them in short sessions, and you put forward a shortlist with answers the client can watch in a few minutes.
Be clear about what the tool is and isn’t. It is a focused first-round interview with share links for clients, unlimited recruiters and pricing by interview rather than by seat. It isn’t a recruitment CRM: there are no integrations, one brand covers the whole account, and clients watch answers rather than rating them inside the tool. For many agencies that is exactly the right size.
How it works
How agencies use it
- 01
One job per vacancy
Create a job for each role you’re filling, and import that client’s question set.
- 02
Screen your longlist
Paste the candidates you want to screen. Each gets a private link and reminders before the deadline.
- 03
Pick your shortlist
Your recruiters rate and compare answers and agree who to put forward.
- 04
Send the client a link
Share each shortlisted candidate’s answers. The client watches and replies to you with who they want to meet.
Is it a fit?
Who it suits, and who it doesn’t
A good fit if you…
- put candidates forward to clients and want them seen, not just described
- run first-round screens across several roles at once
- work as a team of recruiters and don’t want per-seat pricing
- want every candidate for a role assessed the same way
Probably not the right tool if you…
- need it to sync with your recruitment CRM or ATS (there are no integrations)
- want each client’s logo on their candidates’ pages (branding is one per account)
- need clients to rate candidates inside the tool (share links are watch-only)
- need a white-labelled portal for each client
FAQ
Common questions
Can my clients watch candidates without an account?
Yes, through a share link. Create a link from a candidate’s interview and send it however you like. It stays open for 3, 7, 14 or 30 days, and you can turn it off at any time. Each interview has one active link at a time.
How share links workWhat does a client see on a share link?
The candidate’s answers, and nothing of yours. They can watch each answer. They don’t see your team’s ratings or notes or the candidate’s email address, and they can’t rate inside the tool, so ask them to reply to you with their view.
How is pricing worked out for an agency?
By interviews, not recruiters. Each candidate you invite is one interview, and every plan includes unlimited users. Paid plans start with Starter at $19 a month for 40 interviews, and Business includes 120 a month.
See pricingCan I brand interviews for each client?
One brand per account. On paid plans, your agency’s logo and colour appear on candidate pages and invite emails. There’s one brand per account, so you can’t show a different client’s logo for each role.
Does it integrate with my recruitment CRM?
No. There are no CRM, ATS or calendar integrations and no public API. Add candidates one by one or paste a list straight from a spreadsheet.
Do candidates know the interview is for a client?
They see your company name and your note. The invite and the interview page show your agency’s name, the role and the description you write. Say in the description who the role is with, if your client is happy for you to.
