HireVue, Inc.

HireVue, which acquired Modern Hire in 2023, operates an enterprise-level hiring platform that utilizes artificial intelligence to streamline the recruitment process for large organizations. The company's services include on-demand and live video interviews, game-based assessments, and automated scheduling, all designed to help businesses identify and hire candidates more efficiently. HireVue's platform collects a significant amount of personal data from job applicants, including video and audio recordings of interviews, which are then analyzed by their AI to assess a candidate's skills, work style, and potential job performance. This extensive collection and analysis of sensitive personal information, including facial and verbal data, raise significant privacy concerns. The use of AI in hiring decisions could lead to algorithmic bias, and the storage of video interviews creates a rich target for data breaches, potentially exposing candidates to identity theft or other forms of misuse of their personal information. To mitigate these risks, individuals should be mindful of the data they share during the application process and can inquire with the hiring company about their data retention policies and the option to have their data removed.
