As the popularity of video-based job interviews rises, so does the need for automated tools to evaluate interview performance. Real world hiring decisions are based on assessments of knowledge and skills as well as holistic judgments of person-job fit. While previous research on automated scoring of interview videos shows promise, it lacks coverage of monologue-style responses to structured interview (SI) questions and content-focused interview rating. We report the development of a standardized video interview protocol as well as human rating rubrics focusing on verbal content, personality, and holistic judgment. A novel feature extraction method using ``visual words" automatically learned from video analysis outputs and the Doc2Vec paradigm is proposed. Our promising experimental results suggest that this novel method provides effective representations for the automated scoring of interview videos.
