THE CHALLENGE TODAY

More candidates deserve a real shot

The best candidates aren’t always the ones with the best resumes—they’re the ones given the chance to demonstrate their skills. Structured interviews create that opportunity from the start.

Standing out is harder than ever

With hundreds of applicants per role and AI-polished resumes that increasingly look alike, it’s difficult for candidates to differentiate themselves or show how they actually think and work.

Only a fraction move to a conversation

On average, just 1 in 10 applicants receives a recruiter screen, according to a BrightHire study. Expanding access to structured interviews helps surface more qualified talent earlier.

Candidates want a real chance

Applicants prefer a structured interview to being screened out based solely on their resume. 78% of candidates prefer AI-led interviews, citing fairness, consistency, and the ability to interview anytime.

What candidates say about the experience

Clear expectations, flexible timing, and structured conversations help candidates feel more confident, and better able to show who they really are.

Customer Support Representative Candidate

“The call felt natural and it allowed me to answer like I was in a conversation.”

Senior Support Engineer Candidate

“This was actually very intuitive and easy to work with. I think it is a great way to start an interview and allows people to take an interview on their own time.”

Flexible and accessible by design

Clear guidance and flexible formats reduce anxiety and help candidates perform at their best.


Candidates can complete interviews on their own time—from desktop or mobile—with no scheduling, apps, downloads, or logins required


Interviews can be configured as voice-only or video based on the role. Before starting, candidates complete a short practice round with audio or video checks—so they know what to expect and feel prepared.


Personalized intros set context, explain expectations, and help candidates understand the role and company before the interview begins.

Before you get started

Yes, recruiting teams can add an intro video to the AI Interview experience, which gives them a chance to put a face to the position, and share more details upfront with the candidate about the role and organization.

Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with most candidates citing the organic feel of the conversation, as well as the convenience of taking the interview during the hours that worked for them. As far as constructive feedback, candidates rate the experience higher when the Interviewer is able to answer more questions about the role. Therefore, we always recommend that customers spend time thinking through thoughtful context to provide context in addition to the Interview Guide itself.

That’s not what our experience to-date shows. Feedback we’ve received shows that our AI Interview is often a candidates first experience with a voice AI Agent. To help make that experience more comfortable, we include features like the practice round to help candidates get a feel for the conversation before they dive into the actual interview.

We see customers often starting with early-in-career roles since its often where their recruiting teams are most bandwidth constrained. However, we do see senior roles (Principal / Director) leveraging the AI Interview, as candidates cite the convenience factor of 24/7 availability as a huge plus.
