Great teams start with great interviews. Pillar’s interview intelligence is your coach at every stage of interviewing, so your team follows the process, collaborates well, and hires a stellar teammate. The Greenhouse/Pillar integration will allow Pillar to join your interviews, giving you real-time interview coaching and automatically capturing key interview moments to analyze and share.
