The poll — commissioned by Express Employment Professionals, a Chicago-based staffing company — surveyed 1,010 U.S. hiring decision-makers between June 13-26.
Here’s what respondents had to say about virtual versus in-person interviews:
- Fifty-one percent of hiring managers prefer to conduct interviews in-person.
- Forty percent use a hybrid approach, incorporating online and face-to-face elements into the hiring process.
- Eight percent still conduct fully virtual interviews.
“Technology was such a wonderful asset to keep the workforce connected during the COVID-19 pandemic but returning to in-person interviews or a virtual component at the start of the hiring process allows employers to assess soft skills that are hard to capture without meeting face-to-face,” said Bill Stoller, CEO of Express Employment International, in a July 26 news release.
