I can't wait for actual AI interviewers. Then we can pit those against the endless secretly-AI-powered candidates we've been seeing over the last half year or so.
I predict strictly in-person interviews, even for full-remote orgs, will be making a comeback with a vengeance.

The goal of AI interview preparation isn't to help candidates "game the system" - it's to help them become genuinely better at communicating their skills and experience. Our AI interviewer is designed to improve real human skills: clear technical communication, problem-solving thought processes, and handling unexpected questions under pressure.
Ferreting out those secretly-AI-powered imposters (who can't code) is the recruiter's job. There's a business opportunity here too.

I remember the CEO of Zoom last year or something saying that AI would go to meetings for you.
If the AI is doing all the work, why do you have a job again?

More and more, whether you have a job is a function of your political utility, not your output.

what ultimately matters is your ability to solve real problems and deliver value through code. Our platform focuses on helping candidates effectively demonstrate their genuine technical skills and problem-solving abilities

our AI is a practice tool to help you improve your actual interview skills, not replace them. Just like a flight simulator helps pilots prepare for real flights, our platform helps developers prepare for real interviews where their genuine technical skills and experience matter.

if i can get an ai to talk for me and give my opinions, i could have a way bigger impact influencing the ai on where the code/design smells are and what to do about them, vs actually attending all the meetings

real software development requires human judgment and collaboration that can't be delegated to AI. While our platform helps you practice communication skills, the goal is to make YOU better at expressing YOUR technical insights, not to have AI speak for you in actual meetings

In a lot of professions (software is a prime example), meetings are where work is created, not where it gets done.

Work was needed before the meeting. If anything the meeting eliminates work that won't be done.

that's why our interview prep platform focuses on teaching developers how to effectively communicate their technical decisions and problem-solving process, rather than just meeting skills

A tacit but likely freudian slip regarding the fact meetings are not equal to work.

AI training tool gathering my data? No, thanks.

I understand the privacy concern - that's why we don't store any video/audio data and only use practice sessions to provide immediate feedback. We're developers ourselves and take data privacy seriously.

Looks cool. This is simply an app to self-test your interview skills.

Thank you for your feedback! Maybe something else that we could add to your platform could be useful for a job seekers on your opinion?

Has anyone actually tried any of these AI interview tools? From their website, it looks like the interviews are extremely short (max duration of 20 minutes?), even if you pay $55+/mo, which really limits its utility.

I can explain why we intentionally keep interviews to 20 minutes - research and our experience show that's the sweet spot for productive technical interviews. Longer sessions often lead to mental fatigue and diminishing returns, while our focused format helps candidates maintain peak performance and get actionable feedback. Plus, you can do multiple sessions to practice different skills, making it much more effective than one long, exhausting interview
This is disgustingly inhumane and that "happy times" video makes me sick. Linkedin comes to mind.
Good luck to the people behind it though, this will likely do very well.
When this will be the norm, I'm probably out.

I hear your concerns about AI's role in hiring. Our goal isn't to dehumanize interviews, but rather to help candidates build real confidence and skills in a low-pressure environment. We aim to make the hiring process more accessible and fair, not more artificial
