Bellevue, WA April 25, 2008 -- InterviewStudio, a ground-breaking new rich media platform used for the initial interview of a job candidate, has been selected by Gartner as one of four Cool Vendors for Human Capital Management Software 2008.

As reported by Gartner Research, the highly respected information and technology research and advisory firm, "InterviewStudio is an e-recruitment mashup. It enables job candidates to submit a resume, give a video interview, take a job assessment and manage reference feedback. In addition, it is integrated with LinkedIn and Google Search to enable a recruiter to gather additional information about the candidate. There are other video interviewing providers in the market, but what is interesting is how InterviewStudio has brought together video interviews with assessment and social networking to get a much fuller view of a candidate before an employer spends the money to have a face-to-face meeting."

"With InterviewStudio, in the time it takes a hiring manager to review a traditional resume, he or she can review the candidate's resume, evaluate the results of a nationally recognized assessment test, watch a videotaped interview, find public Google information, check their social network via LinkedIn, all on one screen in one place at one time," said Colleen Aylward, CEO of InterviewStudio. "Gartner sees the value of gathering all these tools in one effective and easy-to-use offering, and we're confident that candidates and employers will continue to see it as well."
