Hirevue Time Limits

Does Hirevue impose a time limit for listening to your first recording / before you begin your second attempt? I know that the recordings themselves are time-limited but can you theoretically use the time in between attempts to prepare a slightly more polished answer without punishment?

 

Based on the most helpful WSO content, HireVue does have specific time limits for recording your answers. However, for platforms that allow multiple attempts at answering a question, you can indeed use the time between attempts to refine your answer. Here's what you need to know:

  • Recording Time: You typically have up to 2 minutes to answer each question, and the recording stops as soon as the time is up.
  • Preparation Time: You're usually given 30 seconds to prepare a response before recording.
  • Multiple Attempts: Some banks offer the option to re-record answers. If this is the case, you can pause and review after each attempt without a specified limit on the time you can take before starting your second attempt.

So, if you're using a version of HireVue that allows for multiple attempts, you can use the interlude to better prepare your answer for the second recording. Just remember, while there's no explicit penalty for taking time to prepare, it's always best to appear well-prepared and polished on your first try. Practice makes perfect, so take advantage of any unlimited practice trials offered by HireVue before your actual interview.

No time limit imo, I also noticed if you stay silent during the first 20 seconds or the hirevue it’ll just say they can’t hear anything and won’t count as an a first attempt. 
 

I waited 5 minutes between 1st and 2nd attempt without any issues. Good luck!
