Job offers increased by 12% and retention by 17% with AI interviews. However, an AI interviewer's ROI depends on the market it's deployed in.

It has really annoyed me; I ended up doing three interviews over the course of four weeks, and I'm pretty confident that I got the technical questions right. It could be that my resume is too "jumpy", which is fair, but they could have read my resume before they wasted my time and theirs with three multi-hour interviews. The only

How can we do better interviews in the age of AI Absolutely nobody likes the hiring process. Not the managers hiring, not the recruitment people, and certainly not the candidates. Tech interviews are one of the worst parts of the process and are pretty much universally hated by the people taking them. We’ve all heard stories of people being asked comp sci questions about O(n) efficiency, only to connect APIs with basic middleware in their day job. I think the image below pretty much sums it up
