Game changing tool that has streamlined our hiring process

5.0 2 years ago

This has made it a lot easier for e, a business owner.

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I'm really happy with this tool and I don't think I'll ever screen candidates again in future without using it.

Pros:

I really like that I get a better sense of who these candidates are based on their video responses to questions. Before using Wamly I would think someone looked great (based on their CV) but in-person I would be disappointed. Wamly 100% solves this problem for me.

Cons:

I would like to be able to stay on one question and cycle through answers from each candidate. I also think candidates need more help or training to record better video interviews, some of their recordings were really disappointing (even though this isn't a direct fault of Wamly).

Pause/Resume your interview reviews

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: The software is surprisingly easy to use.

Pros:

This software enables me to review candidates at a time that is convenient to me during my busy schedule. I can for example half-way through a review, get interrupted by other work and later continue where I last left off. Something that was not possible with a live interview.

Cons:

Not the software's fault, but unfortunately you need to structure your questions in such a way that the candidate would have no ambiguity about what you are asking because the candidate cannot ask a question back or confirm his/her understanding about the question/task.

Feedback - Pro Talent

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall, I received great service from everyone at Wamly. I did have one problem. When my free trial expired, I had to select an option to continue. After looking at the packages available I could not negotiate the premium package with my boss. The other packages had limited features and were not going to meet my needs. I also found it difficult to get my candidates to do a video interview. A lot of them had issues being recorded and saw the platform as a last resort. "If all else fails, I will do a video". My clients were all aboard and loved the idea, but the lack of enthusiasm from candidates, made the project fail.

Pros:

The platform was really easy to use. It is a great concept. It has a lot of potential and will be highly successful in internal recruitment.

Cons:

The fact that candidates could not redo their videos. In an agency we are trying to sell our candidates to a client and therefor need them to be comfortable, relaxed and able to redo their video. Being recorded does not come naturally to everyone. Some great candidates would have lost out on opportunities, purely because they looked awkward on their video. It is a lot of management to continuously look at all the videos and reset the terrible ones, and then asking them to redo it. I would also like them to be able to watch their video at the end and be happy with their submission.

Wamly Response

Hi Marizaan! Thanks so much for your review. We try to keep the responses as authentic as possible and thus we do not allow candidates to redo their interviews (which is very much the same in a in-person interview where you would not be able to redo your answer) but we absolutely back that there is something to unpack regarding how we help set-up the candidates to win and feel comfortable with the one-way interview. In terms of the subscriptions/packages offered, please reach out to us directly, we would love to have a conversation with you and see if we can help.

Wamly is a new innovative system

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: My overall experience with Wamly can be summarized as a simple yet complexed system that makes you feel adequate in carrying out your recruiting activities. Successful recruiting is possible in a simpler manner that saves time.

Pros:

Innovation never stops at Wamly. there are continuous improvements of the system regularly.

Cons:

I really can not say there is something I did not like. I would rather say, we should have a more user online feature if less licenses is available. When I need to work on system and Im inactive to allow another it is a problem on time constraint.

Best video interview software in South Africa

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Such a valuable tool for any HR manager or entrepreneur. It has completely changed the game for us.

Pros:

Wamly is super easy to use and took our hiring process from 3 months to a week. We eventually started giving up CVs and are now just screening candidates through Wamly by using their great filtering tools. What I also really enjoy about Wamly is the very comprehensive rating system where users can give input without seeing comments from other users.

Cons:

When I started using it, there were a couple of features that I wished it had but it has since all been included - the Wamly team is really listening to their customers.
