AI interviews: one-way videos, candidates preparing with AI, Google's AI overhaul
Boston University says an AI interview is usually a one-way video or chat session scored by an algorithm. According to Google's internal documents, the company is reshaping its interview process with AI; a YouTuber left their own interview to AI, which proved a bad idea.
Who is affected and how
- job seeker
- Prepare for an AI interview on content, structure and tone; AI tools can be used for practice but do not replace the candidate.
- HR professional
- The scoring criteria of the AI interview and the human review must be documented.
