Hindi language support overview

Updated 6 months ago

Hirevire allows you to provide a localized experience for your candidates. While the recruiter admin panel remains in English, you can fully translate the candidate-facing application process into Hindi (हिंदी) to better serve candidates from India and the global Hindi-speaking community.

The recruiter dashboard, job settings, and analytics are currently available in English only.

Candidate-facing Hindi localization

When you enable Hindi for a job, the entire candidate journey is automatically translated. This includes the following elements:

  • Application Forms: Labels and placeholders (e.g., "आपका नाम," "ईमेल").

  • Interview Controls: Buttons for recording, stopping, and replaying video/audio responses.

  • Instructions & Modals: Camera and microphone permission prompts and setup instructions.

  • System Messages: Error validations and submission confirmation screens.

How to enable Hindi for a job

You can set the language preference on a per-job basis. This is ideal for companies hiring for roles in Hindi-speaking regions or targeting candidates who prefer Hindi.

  1. Navigate to the Jobs tab in your dashboard.

  2. Click Edit on an existing job or select Add Job.

  3. Scroll down to the Language dropdown menu.

  4. Select Hindi from the list.

  5. Click Save to apply the changes to the candidate application page.

To localize your entire careers page, go to Profile > Careers Page > Customize and update the language setting there. For more details, see White-Labeling and Custom Branding Options.

Managing bilingual workflows

Many recruiters prefer a bilingual approach (English and Hindi) to accommodate a wider pool of candidates. Since the system does not auto-translate your custom text, follow these best practices:

  • Manual Question Translation: Write your screening questions in both languages (e.g., "Tell us about yourself / अपने बारे में बताएं").

  • Email Templates: Candidate notifications (invites and reminders) default to English. You can manually update these templates in your job settings to include Hindi translations.

  • Candidate Language Picker: If a candidate prefers a different language, they can manually toggle between available options using the language picker located in the footer of the application page.

For a complete list of supported languages and locale codes, see Supported application languages and locale codes.

Privacy and GDPR compliance

Localization in Hirevire is built with GDPR compliance in mind. When Hindi is enabled, candidate-facing legal links—such as the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use—remain accessible in the footer. All candidate data, including video responses and AI-generated transcripts, is protected with bank-level encryption regardless of the interface language.

AI transcripts for Hindi interviews are supported. For best accuracy, set the "Transcription Language" to Hindi within the job's AI settings. Learn more in AI Credit Consumption for Candidate Responses.
