A simple introduction

What is Honeit

Honeit is an interview platform used by recruiting, staffing, and HR teams to capture, search, and share interview data.

You may have been scheduled for a phone interview or a video call through Honeit. It's a live conversation with a real person, your recruiter or someone on the hiring team, not a bot.

Talk with a real person

Your interview is a live call with your recruiter or someone on the hiring team.

Your story, in your own words

This is a live conversation, not a one-way form. You can ask questions and explain the work you are proud of.

Your answers can be shared

After you talk, your interviewer can share your answers with the hiring team, so they hear you, not just notes about you.

Your answers can be shared directly with the hiring team.

Fewer interview steps along the way.

From invite to conversation

How to get ready before you join

Here is how the call works.

You do NOT need an account or login for the interview.

01

Your invite arrives by email

Look for a message from Honeit, often with a subject like "Details for your call with" and the interviewer's name.

02

You join from that email

Click Join Call in your browser, on a computer or phone, or dial the number and PIN. Video interviews use Join Call only.

03

Join a few minutes early

You may connect up to five minutes before the start time. Please do not share your dial-in details, so the call stays clear.

04

You will hear a short recording notice

You will hear that the call is being recorded. You can opt out of the recording anytime.

05

Video stays in your control

On a video call you can blur your background, mute your mic, or turn your camera off if that is offered. You will not see the interviewer's private notes or dashboard.

06

Your answers can be shared after the call

After the call, your interviewer can share your answers with the hiring team.

Before you join, test your mic and camera.

The test may ask for permission to use your mic and camera.
