Among tools of selection that has begun utilising technologies for its medium is the employment interview which is most profound among the researchers as technology-mediated employment interview. The present study presents a systematic review of recent research on technology-mediated employment interview (i.e., interactive voice response interview, IVR; telephone interview, TI; videoconference interview, VI) in personnel selection with particular preference to applicant reactions. Via computer-assisted searches of social science databases, gateways, publications from relevant organizations, hand searched key journals and scanned reference lists, a total of five studies (3 experimental studies; 2 non-experimental studies) were selected and critically appraised.

With non-experimental studies, compared to VI and IVR, TI received consistent positive applicant reactions. All five studies had significant methodological flaws, particularly the absence of power calculations across all studies.
