One of the cool features available out of the box in with NativeVideo is the ability of running to run video interviews directly in Salesforce.
Any designed designated Salesforce user can easily setup interview templates, so that users can record videos answering questions in a pre-defined timeframe. You could for instance define a pool of 20 questions and run video interviews where just 3 of them are randomly selected and displayed one at a time to your end users. Alternatively, you can specify a fixed set of questions and ask all of them in a predefined order.

Let's consider a real example, the recruitment use case. The hiring manager is defining defines an interview template for each role of the roles she is looking after, whilst the candidate candidates are submitting video recordings answering a randomly selected subset of questions. The hiring manager will then review all of the videos recorded by all the candidates and decide who to invite for to the final face to face stage.
NativeVideo could also be used to attract the best talent in a different way: hiring managers could record a video descriptions of description for their ideal candidatescandidate, offering a more natural and direct description of what it is like working with them and overall about the company culture. Candidates will then have a better picture of what is expected from them, as well as on what they will find if they were to join the company... bringing again more efficiency to the overall hiring process.

We have now seen how easy is to transform a simple video recording experience in into a more sophisticated video interview, always leveraging the same fundamental set of video recording and video browsing components.
In the next chapter we will present another feature, that allows Business Developers Development and Sales Teams to record a video message for a specific lead and send it through email. Once the prospect has opened the email, a thumbnail will be displayed, inviting the user to watch the personalised video message. Next section here.
