A practice-interview link with every interview you arrange: a live interviewer who speaks, listens and scores, built from the job spec and your candidate’s CV. They arrive ready. Your fee is safer.
Free for your first 3 months, and you can create your own account in about a minute. The demo needs no account.
You spend days sourcing, screening and submitting. Then the candidate gets a time, a place and “good luck”.
You send the job spec and have a call. But no one can have twenty candidates say their answers out loud to a listener, and get scored, the night before.
A candidate who fumbles the interview is a lost fee and weeks of work gone. You are the one who loses.
Recruitment is built to find and submit. Preparing the candidate is nobody’s job and nobody’s tool. That is the step we add.
From the recruiter portal, with the job spec and the candidate’s CV loaded. It goes with the interview confirmation, so there is no extra step for them to find.
Up to three spoken practice interviews with a live interviewer who looks at them, listens and reacts, in 32 languages. Scored on five dimensions, with a path to a better pass.
The result and certificate belong to the candidate, who can share it with you. Practice is private, so they can make their mistakes here, not in the real interview.
The habit is the whole idea: a prep link with every interview you arrange. It takes about a minute.
| Option | What it does | What it does not |
|---|---|---|
| Your CRM or ATS | Stores and tracks candidates, and increasingly bundles tools into one system. | Rehearse anyone. We sit beside it: a link in the same message. |
| Candidate-side practice on big platforms | Some job platforms offer self-serve AI interview practice, often needing a paid plan. | As far as we can find, none puts practice in the recruiter’s hands to send. Candidates have to go looking. |
| Interview question lists | Give questions and model answers. | Give the experience. Nerves fade only when the rehearsal feels real. |
| TheInterviewChair.com | A live, speaking interviewer, per job, sent by you, free to the candidate, scored. | Replace your briefing. It adds the rehearsal that briefing cannot. |
What we sell is realism. Comparison as of October 2026.
Treat it as the cost of protecting a fee. One saved placement covers an enormous number of preps.
Position interview preparation as something your firm does for candidates and clients, under your own relationship with them.
Want it as your own tool? Ask us. We are happy to talk about how that could work for a firm your size.
We are early, and we would rather prove it than promise it. We are looking for ten recruiters to run a 30-day pilot: each sends up to twenty preps, and we measure what share of your interviews carried one and how the candidates scored. If it does not help you, we want to know why.
No. Your briefing tells them about the role and the client. This is the rehearsal that follows it: saying the answers out loud and hearing where they are weak.
Open the link. There is nothing to install. They can type or speak their answers, on a phone or a computer.
Yes. Nothing is public, and nothing goes to recruiters, unless the candidate chooses to share it. They can delete any interview, or their whole account, whenever they like.
Any job, company or subject, in 32 languages. The interview is built from the job spec and the CV you attach.
The result belongs to the candidate, who can share it with you. A report for recruiters on what you sent and how it went is on our next-build list.
