Case Study: BDO Ireland achieves 80% reduction in first‑round screening time and significant cost savings with Hirevue

BDO - Customer Case Study

BDO Ireland, a leading adviser to Irish businesses with offices across the island and 625 staff, faced a 14% surge in recruitment in 2017 and needed to streamline its hiring process. After reviewing market options, BDO chose Modern Hire’s branded, plug-and-play video interviewing platform (integrated with Taleo) to replace time-consuming first-round interviews and support continued growth.

Automated video interviews now replace first-round screening, cutting chargeable screening time by 80% (a conservative estimated saving of ~€38,000), speeding selection, improving the calibre of face-to-face shortlist candidates, and making overseas recruitment and scheduling far easier. Line managers reported strong buy-in, and candidate feedback was excellent (100% satisfaction in a 105-respondent survey, 94% willing to do a video interview again).
