Show HN: Platform to practice job interviews using AI

Just took the interview for the Senior JavaScript Developer position! (I'm not actually a js developer, but this was the closest I could find)

- It was very nice to have "two minutes from now" offered as an interview slot - Interviewer: "Can you tell about a time you used typescript in a project" Me: "I've only used typescript in personal projects, writing little games to play remotely with my family." - Interviewer: "Can you tell about a time you demonstrated excellent collaboration at work?" Me: "I worked closely with two other people when building product at my last company. I was the data science/ml expert, ..." - Interviewer: "Can you tell me your English language proficiency?" Me: "Very proficient." - Interview over after about 3 minutes! No technical questions at all, sadly. - A results email was sent to my inbox within a minute or two.

RESULTS

Highlights: Good collaboration skills, Experience with AI

Keypoints: Has only used TypeScript in personal projects, Demonstrated effective collaboration and initiative, Comfortable with English

Overall Score: 68%

English Level: B2

Looks pretty good! Agreed that a senior js dev should have some real experience with TypeScript.

But wait, what does B2 mean?

Can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party.

Hm. I am a native English speaker, and there are two levels above B2. This is a pretty big miss.

But overall, the process was so quick and painless that I'd certainly do it again, just for the chance to practice giving my canned responses to standard behavioral-type questions.

Looks interesting! Do you plan to add technical questions in your AI-powered interview offering? As a founder who spends considerable time hiring, I typically try to judge the technical capabilities of the candidate during the first interview.
