Conversational AI dialogue beats one-way recorded video monologues.
HireVue forces candidates to talk into a blank webcam timer with zero interaction — generating hours of uninformative video clips that recruiters dread reviewing. TalVivo’s Kyra engages in real, interactive spoken conversations that adapt dynamically to candidate answers.
One-Way Video Recording
Static questions with 30-second timers. Candidates record rigid video clips without feedback or follow-up questions. Historically relied on controversial facial emotion and eye-contact scoring algorithms.
- Uncomfortable one-way monologues with high drop-off rates
- Zero interactive adaptive follow-up questions
- Recruiters spend hours watching recorded clips manually
Real-Time Conversational AI
Kyra engages candidates in authentic 2-way voice conversations with sub-500ms response latencies, asking intelligent follow-ups based on actual content, and producing structured scored dossiers.
- Natural, human-like voice dialogue candidates love
- Evaluates reasoning & content, not arbitrary body language
- Instant transcripts, summaries, and 10-module ATS fit scores
