How do in-person and virtual interviews differ — from the employer’s perspective?

Employers generally appreciate the lower cost of virtual interviews, but one negative is they don’t get a solid sense of the applicant’s “presence” because they are not physically in the same space. For the applicant, the primary negative is they can’t pick up cues as readily as they would in person. Also, applicants need to step up maybe five times their normal energy level because of the virtual medium. Another difference is that applicants might encounter a first-round pre-employment program designed to assess personality.
