Abstract

Asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) are becoming exponentially more common in the hiring landscape. Despite practical benefits to organizations, research demonstrates potential challenges for applicants, including lower performance in technology-mediated interviews, and a host of negative attitudinal reactions to AVIs. Given this, AVI companies often provide tips for applicants, and applicants often access online resources to improve their performance. To date, we know little about interventions that can mitigate negative applicant reactions and increase applicant performance in AVIs, or the mechanisms involved in such a process. In Study 1, 202 participants from Prolific were randomly assigned to one of the four conditions (in a 2 × 2 experimental design) and completed a 5-question mock AVI, to explore how an AVI training video and practice impacted a host of self-report behavioral (i.e., impression management; IM) and attitudinal (i.e., anxiety, attraction, fairness, usability) outcomes, as well as response length, structure of the response, and interview performance. Results indicated that practice had negligible effects. However, training was positively associated with fairness perceptions (particularly consistency) and interview performance. Moreover, mediation analyses indicated that trained interviewees provided more structured and longer responses, which led to higher performance. Study 2 offered a replication with a sample of 156 active job seekers (senior students and Prolific users). Training was associated with more structured responses, and through this, higher performance. Pre- vs. post-training comparisons for a sub-sample also showed performance improvements. Implications, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.

准备好的镜头滚动…动作!在异步视频面试中考察受访者的培训和实践机会
异步视频面试(AVIs)在招聘领域变得越来越普遍。尽管对组织有实际的好处,但研究表明,申请者面临着潜在的挑战,包括在技术介导的面试中表现较差,以及对AVIs的一系列负面态度反应。有鉴于此,AVI公司经常为求职者提供提示,求职者也经常访问在线资源来提高自己的表现。到目前为止,我们对能够减轻求职者负面反应和提高求职者在AVIs中的表现的干预措施知之甚少,也不知道这一过程中涉及的机制。在研究1中,来自多产公司的202名参与者被随机分配到四个条件中的一个(在2 × 2实验设计中),并完成了5个问题的模拟AVI,以探索AVI训练视频和实践如何影响许多自我报告行为(即印象管理;(IM)和态度(即焦虑、吸引力、公平性、可用性)结果,以及反应长度、反应结构和面试表现。结果表明,练习的效果可以忽略不计。然而,培训与公平感(尤其是一致性)和面试表现呈正相关。此外,中介分析表明,受过培训的受访者提供了更结构化和更长的回答,从而导致更高的绩效。研究2提供了156名活跃求职者(高年级学生和多产用户)的复制样本。训练与更结构化的反应有关,通过这种方式,表现也会更好。训练前与训练后对一个子样本的比较也显示了性能的提高。讨论了未来研究的意义、局限性和方向。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Vocational Behavior publishes original empirical and theoretical articles offering unique insights into the realms of career choice, career development, and work adjustment across the lifespan. These contributions are not only valuable for academic exploration but also find applications in counseling and career development programs across diverse sectors such as colleges, universities, business, industry, government, and the military. The primary focus of the journal centers on individual decision-making regarding work and careers, prioritizing investigations into personal career choices rather than organizational or employer-level variables. Example topics encompass a broad range, from initial career choices (e.g., choice of major, initial work or organization selection, organizational attraction) to the development of a career, work transitions, work-family management, and attitudes within the workplace (such as work commitment, multiple role management, and turnover).
