VERDICT

Should I use Hirevire?

One-way video interviews. Every applicant answers the same questions you wrote, so you shortlist on what they said. - hirevire.com

Depends. Buy if you're a small business or recruitment agency screening dozens of applicants per role and $49/month fits the budget. Skip if you hire occasionally — phone screens are free, and the evidence here is thin (vendor site only).

Confidence

Low. Based on 2 public sources (vendor site only); no independent reviews or security findings found.

Gotchas - check before you buy

medium

No public security page — ask how candidate videos are stored, retained, and GDPR-processed before upload.

medium

No independent user reviews surfaced; test on monthly billing before annual commitment.

low

Guess: per-tier candidate limits and seat counts unverified — confirm before choosing a plan.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Every applicant answers your same written questions, so shortlisting is consistent.
  • Nobody filters the pile before you see it — you hear from all 70.
  • Published pricing starts at $49/month.
  • Applicants answer in their own voice, not just resumes.

Cons

  • No independent reviews found; you're relying on vendor claims.
  • No public security page; candidate-data handling unclear.
  • Guess: video screening may deter candidates uncomfortable recording themselves.
