Tech Checks Are a Key Part of the Recruiting Process

Our end-to-end tech check starts from the moment recruiting begins. We do this to catch potential tech issues upstream. This ensures a smooth experience both for the respondents and the client. Here’s how we do it. 

1- Recruiting Questions: We supply a list of 10 technical screener questions that will be used to qualify recruits. This prevents wasting time (and money) on recruits who do not have the technical capabilities to fit the need. The worst-case scenario is needing to dismiss a respondent on ‘game day’ due to tech issues.

2- Recruit Tech Screening: Before approving recruits, they must attend an online meeting to complete a series of deeper technical checks:

Step 1– Starts with automatic video recording to check:

🎧 Audio/Video quality

🌍 Computer system compatibility

🎯 Stable internet connectivity 

Step 2– As necessary, we’ll sometimes do a personal tech check follow-up call. We reach out directly to confirm more details:

📶 Confirm/assess WIFI speed and device

🖥 Ensure their comfort with the platform login 

⬇️ Help them pre-install any necessary conference software

🔆 As possible, coach them on lighting and camera framing

Step 3–  Event Check-in: On the day-of, we do a final tech check to:

😆 Verify identity if required

📸 Double-check camera and mic settings

👁 Orient them on the conference platform
