Welcome to Avita

If you are on this page it probably means that you have received an invitation to complete an online interview. So firstly, congratulations! Secondly, this is exactly why we designed the solution, so that companies can meet and interview more candidates quickly as part of the recruitment process.

It means that you can do this interview anytime, from anywhere, without needing to take time off work or travel!

Your unique interview experience awaits!

You will be asked to do an online interview and you are able to complete it in your own time. You will be presented with one of our amazing virtual interview facilitators (not a real person, although he/she might look very real) who will facilitate the interview process with you. 

The questions will be asked, and your video answers will be recorded and be made available to the company.  

How does it work?

You will be presented with pre-selected interview questions and your answers will be recorded using your own device’s camera and microphone.

You will have a set time limit to complete your video interview answers. You will be provided with a set timeframe to prepare an answer before proceeding to record. The duration of this timeframe varies and at times might require you to think on the spot.

Just as with a face to face interview, you will not be able to re-record your answers.

Your recorded interview will then be available for review by the company’s interview panel.

What’s in it for me?

Most organisations don’t’ have time to interview all applicants. Avita enables organisations to interview more candidates as part of the hiring process.

It means that you:

  • Can complete your interview anytime, anywhere as is most convenient for you.
  • Can answer at your comfort, without the feeling of being scrutinised by a panel
  • Don’t have to spend money on travel costs
  • Don’t’ have to take time off work to go for the interview

Let's make sure you are prepared!

We know that you are super excited about the experience that awaits. But before you start, let’s help you prepare.  Please watch this short video with tips and recommendations. It is important that you prepare for the interview as you would for a traditional in-person interview.
