UK-based talent solutions platform, the Unseen Group, has completed the acquisition of Shine Interview (Shine), a leading software provider for video interviewing.
The addition of Shine marks Unseen's 9th acquisition to date as it continues to expand its range of products and achieve its mission of reimagining talent strategies and transforming career journeys.
Founded in 2016 by David Copple, Shine's video recruitment platform has enabled employers such as Nissan, Post Office and the Royal Navy to screen high volumes of candidates remotely and more efficiently.
"Shine is a fantastic product that will further enhance our product offering to educators and employers," said Zac Williams, CEO of Unseen Group. "Asynchronous video interviewing is an essential step in many large-scale recruitment processes, enabling talent teams to screen increasing volumes of candidates with greater efficiency and fairness. We're excited to be bringing another great solution to new and existing employer partners as we continue to unlock unseen potential in early careers and beyond."
The Unseen Group will look to enhance Shine's offering with additional software development resources deployed to expand candidate reporting capabilities and to integrate the platform with other Group products such as digital assessment centre software, TopScore.
David Copple, Founder and Managing Director of Shine, said: "I'm delighted that Shine Interview is now part of the Unseen Group. I am incredibly proud of what we have built at Shine over the past 9 years, transforming the hiring process through innovative video technology and helping candidates in over 85 countries. The Unseen Group felt like the natural home for our business, and this move marks an exciting new chapter for the company.
"This acquisition is also testament to the hard work of our team and the trust of our clients over many years and I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been part of our journey. We can't wait to see what exciting opportunities arise working alongside the wider Unseen team."
