Using Petrova for async interviews — it does what we need
We’ve been using Petrova for async video interviews across a few roles. We are not using the live interview feature yet, that’s something we might explore in the future. For now, we are just using the core flow where candidates record their answers to a set of questions.
What I like is that the responses come in with transcripts and a strengths and weaknesses summary for each candidate. It helps cut down review time and gives a clear starting point for decision-making.
If you're hiring and want a simple way to collect and review video answers without doing live calls, this gets the job done. I can’t comment on the live interview feature yet since we haven’t tested it. Will update the review once we do.
Just something to keep in mind - If you’re expecting a perfect plug-and-play tool, maybe wait a few months. But if you’re okay with a tool that is early but evolving fast and a team that actually listens, it’s 100% usable now — and improving rapidly.
I am going to keep using it and looking forward to seeing how it evolves.
