Rehearse a job interview out loud with an AI interviewer

Paste the job posting, let a voice AI play the interviewer, and answer out loud. Afterwards it tells you which answers were strong and which need a better example.

What the bot does

  1. Reads the job posting and your resume.
  2. Asks the kinds of questions this role is likely to get, one at a time.
  3. Listens to your spoken answers and asks a follow-up like a real interviewer.
  4. Gives feedback on each answer and suggests a stronger version.

What you end up with

Several rounds of realistic practice and a short list of answers to polish before the real thing.

Copy this prompt
Be my interviewer for this role: [paste the job posting]. My resume: [paste, with your address and phone removed]. Ask me 6 questions, one at a time, mixing behavioural and role-specific ones. Wait for my full answer, ask one follow-up, then move on. At the end, rate each answer 1 to 5 with one specific tip, and point out any answer where I didn't give a concrete example.

Watch out

  • The AI doesn't know what this employer actually asks. Also look at the company's own careers page and recent interview tips from people in the field.
  • Practice in your own words. Interviewers can tell when an answer is memorised from an AI script.
  • Don't paste confidential details from a current employer into the chat.

What this costs to run

In a chat app it runs inside your plan. If you run it as a bot on an AI API, the bill depends on how often it runs and how much it reads.
