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?

A tacit but likely freudian slip regarding the fact meetings are not equal to work.
We believe effective communication about real work is what makes both interviews and meetings productive
I ought to have written "valuable" work. Though this specific comment related to the Zoom CEO's statement regarding sending AI avatars to meetings which is a whole other issue.
With regards to Prepin, I actually think it looks hugely valuable and has potential to help many people. In fact, I can see it being expanded to so many educational areas in the future. Nice.

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
that doesn't matter as much beyond a certain level (L7+)
you make a valid point - at L7+ levels, the role becomes much more complex with leadership, strategy, and organizational dynamics playing bigger roles. While we currently focus on helping developers up to senior/lead levels demonstrate their technical abilities, expanding to support higher-level leadership positions is on our roadmap
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
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
Hi. I tried reaching out on a different matter via mail, but your mail server seems to be throwing up some error. Doing some reconnaissance on your domain, I can see you might be able to use some help infrastructure wise. Can you reach out via bq.fn [at] dorch.one. I think there is a lot we could help you with.
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.
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
Try this one, free (just pay tokens) and unlimited length interviews

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?
This is not the future I signed up for.
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

I predict strictly in-person interviews, even for full-remote orgs, will be making a comeback with a vengeance.
