RANZCR – Specialist Interview Process

Venue: Movenpick Hotel, Auckland

The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR) held their annual interview process in Auckland for the intake of radiologists in training. This high-stakes event is a critical step in a five-year training programme, with interviews forming the basis for candidate selection by hospitals across the region.


    Challenge

    RANZCR needed to conduct and record interviews for 30–40 candidates, each 20 minutes long, across three rooms simultaneously. The recordings were to be reviewed and ranked by multiple medical professionals with only two weeks to complete the process.

    Key requirements included:
    • High-quality video and audio, with a camera angle focused solely on the candidate
    • Room setups with 2–3 interviewers seated at a top table facing the candidate
    • Precise editing—each video needed to be top and tailed
    • Fast turnaround, with all video editing to be completed within 24 hours

    In previous years, the client had struggled with poor-quality footage and incorrect framing at a different venue. Getting it right this year was essential.

    Solution

    Vidcom delivered a seamless, multi-room recording setup tailored to RANZCR’s detailed specifications.

    Our approach included:
    • Three concurrent recording setups, each in a separate room, with cameras precisely framed on the candidate
    • Discreet, high-quality microphones to ensure crystal-clear audio
    • Efficient post-production, with all recordings top and tailed and turned around within 24 hours
    • Back-up recording laptop for both video and audio as fail-safe so nothing was missed
    • Close communication with the client to ensure every requirement—from layout to final delivery—was met without compromise

    The Benefits

    • Accurate, high-quality recordings that captured exactly what was needed for fair candidate evaluation
    • Reliable multi-room coverage, allowing interviews to run on time and in parallel.
    • Fast, professional editing, ensuring RANZCR’s internal timelines were maintained
    • Peace of mind, thanks to clear planning, responsive communication, and a smooth execution on the day
