Vette, an ‘Uber for Job Phone Interviews,’ Saves Hiring Managers Time With Experts Vetting Candidates
Villanova University graduate and recruiter Amber Wanner was having to pay experts to interview tech job candidates because she lacked the expertise to properly vet them.
Then she created the new tech platform company, Vette, writes Michelle Caffrey for Philadelphia Business Journal.
Vette is “Uber for phone interviews.” The platform lets employers or recruiters connect with industry experts , Vetters, who will do the candidate phone interviews, using pre-set questions or questions they come up with. The Vetter will assess the candidate and suggest topics to follow up on.
“People need that expertise, and people work so hard all of their lives to build that expertise. Why not be able to use that to help companies with their vetting?” Wanner asked.
A transcript of the call is also provided.
The hope is to speed up the hiring process and save hiring managers the time it takes to make those initial candidate calls.
It also gives experts an opportunity to make some extra money., especially those retired, furloughed, on maternity leave or receiving disability.
Wanner wants to get Vette integrated into major career websites and used as a way for companies to streamline the hiring process.
