What the Candidate Sees #

Recording Interface #

A video recording interface is shown inside the Runner with:

• A video preview area (camera feed)
• Control buttons:
  • Record → Start recording
  • Stop → Stop recording
  • Re-record → Retake the video (if enabled)
  • Submit → Upload the final video
• A timer showing the recording duration limit

Camera & Microphone Permission #

Before recording, the Candidate will be prompted by their browser to allow camera and microphone access:

• A permission popup appears
• The Candidate must select "Allow"
• If permission is not granted, the camera preview will not appear and recording cannot start

During Recording #

• The timer starts counting once recording begins
• The Candidate can stop at any time before the limit
• If enabled, the Candidate can re-record before submitting

After Submission #

• The video is uploaded automatically
• The Candidate clicks Continue to proceed
• The Journey moves to the next Step

Candidate Record #

• The submitted video is saved in the Candidate record
• Reviewers can view the video for assessment

Tips #

• Keep the recording duration short (30–60 seconds)
• Provide clear instructions (e.g., "Introduce yourself and describe your experience")
• Remind Candidates to allow camera and microphone access
• Use this Step for personality assessments, introductions, or open-ended responses

Notes #

• Video recording depends on browser permissions
• Some devices may block camera/microphone by default
• Ensure Candidates use a supported browser for the best experience
