Companies that use Modern Hire (now part of HireVue)

Modern Hire is now part of HireVue, which acquired it in 2023. The name still appears in hiring invitations, most often in healthcare, where employers used it to pair recorded questions with skills assessments and job simulations. Below are real companies whose recent job postings or published material referenced Modern Hire, grouped by industry and honestly caveated.

What Modern Hire is, and what taking one is like

Modern Hire was a hiring platform built around assessment and job simulation, not just recorded video. An employer could combine a few recorded interview questions with a situational judgment test, a short skills task, or a realistic job preview. So a Modern Hire link often felt more like a work sample than a straight interview, and what you got depended entirely on what the employer turned on.

Since the HireVue acquisition, the two are effectively one product. If your invitation says Modern Hire, you are almost certainly taking what is now a HireVue assessment. The flavor Modern Hire brought, heavier on assessment and simulation, still shapes how these interviews feel. For a full walkthrough of the steps and how to handle them, see what it is like to take a Modern Hire interview.

A quick, important caveat before the list. The pairings below come from a dataset of recent job postings, vendor case studies, and customer databases, mostly from 2023 to 2024. Hiring tools change often. A company that used Modern Hire for one role two years ago may use something else today, or may have moved fully onto HireVue under a different name. None of this means a company “definitely uses” Modern Hire right now. Treat it as a strong signal worth confirming, not a fact. Always check your invitation and ask your recruiter what your specific process involves.

Companies that have referenced Modern Hire

Healthcare

Healthcare is where Modern Hire shows up most in the data, which fits its strength in high-volume clinical and support hiring.

• Humana. Based on its own recent job postings, Humana referenced “an exciting interviewing technology provided by Modern Hire” in its hiring process, for example on a Senior Data and Reporting Professional role. Humana’s family of care brands appears repeatedly across the data.
• CenterWell Senior Primary Care (part of Humana). A Clinic Manager posting described using “an exciting interviewing technology called Modern Hire to enhance our hiring and decision-making ability.”
• Conviva Care Center (also part of Humana). A Referral Coordinator posting listed the interview format plainly as “MODERN HIRE.”
• Providence Health & Services. Per its own postings, candidates for roles such as an RN position were told they “will receive a text with some additional questions from our Modern Hire system.”
• Swedish (part of Providence). A Pharmacist Intern posting used the same Modern Hire text-and-questions step.
• Mercy. A nursing posting (RN or LPN) said selected candidates “will receive an email invitation (from a Modern Hire email address) to self-schedule.”

A note on the staffing-style listings below. Some healthcare roles in the data were posted by recruiting firms or job networks on behalf of employers, so the Modern Hire step belongs to the underlying hiring process rather than the agency itself.

• Team Builders Recruiting and Consulting, LLC. A Registered Nurse (Pediatrics) posting referenced “some additional questions from a Modern Hire system.”
• The Job Network. An RN Wound Care posting carried the same Modern Hire system language.

Energy and utilities

• Dominion Energy. Based on a recent posting for a Customer Projects Designer, the role “requires ‘recommended’ test results from Modern Hire Customer Projects Designer Virtual Job Tryout administered online.” This is a good example of the job-simulation side of Modern Hire, not just recorded video.

Financial services and insurance

• Thrivent. Per a recent posting for a licensed call center role, candidates were asked to “complete the self-paced skills assessment through our partner Modern Hire.” Again, this leans on assessment rather than a talking-head interview.

How to prepare if you got a Modern Hire invite

The single most useful move is to read your invitation closely and follow the instructions on each section’s start screen, because that screen tells you the real rules, such as whether a section allows a retake. From there:

• Treat it as a HireVue assessment. Since the products are merged, our HireVue candidate guide applies to most of what you will see.
• Expect more than questions. Modern Hire’s roots are in assessment and simulation, so plan for the possibility of a situational judgment test or a short skills task alongside any recorded answers.
• Test your setup first. Check your camera, microphone, and internet on the device you will actually use. A laptop is usually safer than a phone for typing or simulation exercises.
• Prepare like a structured interview. Have a few clear examples of your work ready, and answer with specifics. Our guide on how to prepare for an asynchronous interview covers the general approach, and is it an AI interview? explains what is and is not being analyzed.
