Virtual Assessment Centre still further it's innovation by integrating ICC into their platform

www.virtualassessmentcentre.com has signed an agreement with Infinity Conference Call (ICC) to deliver the video conferencing aspect of their Virtual Assessment Centre (VAC) SaaS platform.

London, May 2010: The Virtual Assessment Centre (VAC) and ICC come together to make what they consider to be the most powerful virtually interviewing and assessment platform on the market.

Fi Haywood, Head of Development of VAC explains why the business chose to integrate ICC into their platform.

We developed a very innovative selection platform that radically reduces time and resource to recruit. ICC has developed what we consider to be the most functionally rich (yet incredibly simple to use) video conferencing platform around today. Together this has produced a formidable solution for our clients. Coupled with this, ICC's customer service is second to none. They can't do enough for you. Anthony Russo, our account manager from ICC insisted on more than one occasion to support us through UK meetings at 3 or 4am EST (his time)! That is what I call service! We are very exited about integrating ICC into our platform and into our working lives!

Integrating video conferencing capability into the Virtual Assessment Centre will allow companies to accelerate the recruitment processes and improve hiring results overall. Key benefits are the reduction of management time, paper screening and physical interviewing of unsuitable candidates and the platform can incorporate an organisation's own competency framework.

VAC's unique tool, Evalu8 Live also allows recruiters and managers to carry out live, virtual competency based interviews, role-plays and other assessment centre activities from the comfort of their desktop via video or phone, in order to ensure that the final shortlist of candidates that do come for a face to face interview are right for the role. Their Global Talent Pool and cyber application systems means companies can put back inappropriate talent and take out more appropriate talent, creating even more efficiencies for them and the candidates.

The cost per room (user) to rent the virtual assessment centre with access to video conferencing (10 cameras on line at one time, 100 collaborating) is about £99 per month. The cost without video conference is £39 per room (user) per month.
