employers can now conduct job vacancy interviews with candidates remotely via
video call. The conversations will be held by company managers or HR representatives
on the electronic labor exchange portal, according to the Workforce Development
Center. No additional applications need to be installed for this purpose. The
service is entirely free and available in the personal account. A company
representative can invite an applicant to participate in a video interview by
sending an invitation that specifies the proposed date and time.
“The video interview
format on the portal will enable employers to save time, conduct multi-stage
selection of candidates, prevent postponing meetings when candidates are away,
and also reduce the vacancy filling time,” said
Aigerim Myrzaly, spokesperson
for the Workforce Development Center.
