Hi There,
As HireVue is specialised in on Demand Interviews it is most likely a one-way format, which means you’ll get a set of pre-recorded questions and a time limit to respond. You can find more Information about this format on the HireVue Homepage.
In terms of what to expect, screening interviews typically cover:
- Your background – “Walk me through your resume” is almost guaranteed. Keep it structured and concise.
- Why this firm? – Be clear on your motivation and show you’ve done your research.
- Why this role? – Show that you understand what the job entails and why you’re a great fit.
- Behavioral questions – Think “Tell me about a time when…” questions. Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure your answers.
- Basic technicals (possibly) – Some firms include simple finance/accounting questions, but this depends on the role.
Since it’s HireVue, practice speaking clearly and naturally into the camera. You get limited prep time for each question, so don’t panic—just focus on key points and avoid rambling.
Good luck!
