Revealing how private equity-driven consolidation in AI interview platforms is changing hiring technology, this analysis exposes the market pitfalls of relying on acquired tools versus purpose-built solutions for interview integrity, security, and candidate transparency.
The hiring technology market is evaporating as PE-owned giants absorb standout platforms like myInterview, dissolving independent brands and prioritizing broad feature lists over transparent, competency-driven candidate assessments. While legacy platforms focus on automating video and personality scoring, true innovation lies in structured, AI-powered interviews which deliver governor-level trust, security, and actionable transparency to recruiters and HR leaders. If lasting value matters, an independent, interview-centric approach with real screening depth and governance—as enabled by solutions dedicated to structured, evidence-based assessment—is more important than ever for authentic hiring outcomes.
