Questions about the mock interview

Who is Ava?

Ava presents our videos and asks the questions here. Her clips are recorded in advance: she asks the question and gives a short verdict for your score range, and her words are always shown as text as well. She doesn’t listen live or ask follow-up questions.

What happens to what I say?

Nothing is recorded, and no audio is sent to us. If you tap the mic, your browser’s own speech service (Apple’s in Safari, Google’s in Chrome) turns your voice into text in the answer box, under that company’s terms. The text of your answer goes to Anthropic’s Claude to write the feedback, and we don’t store it. We keep your email address or account, which question you answered and when, and how many mocks you have used.

How is my answer scored?

The same way as our answer grader: each step of the round’s method from the free cheat sheet gets 0 to 4, and the total is the share of points earned. An AI model (Claude, made by Anthropic) reads the text of your answer and writes the notes and fixes; the scores are added up by us. It scores your words, not your pace, tone or confidence.

How many mock interviews do I get?

One is free for an email address. The full kit includes 20. When they run out, add more from your account page or from this page: 20 for $19 or 50 for $39.

What uses up a mock?

Pressing “Grade my answer”. Speaking, typing and editing before you grade don’t use one, and answering the same question again within 60 minutes of your last graded try is free.

There is no mic in the answer box, or it doesn’t work. What can I do?

The mic appears where your browser has its own speech recognition: Safari, Chrome and Edge do; Firefox and the browsers built into some apps don’t, so open the page in Safari or Chrome to speak. If the mic is there but stops, allow the microphone for this page in your browser’s settings and tap it again. You can always type your answer, and on a phone the microphone key on the keyboard can write it for you. Every way is scored the same.

What do I do with my score?

Start with the top fix. Practice that one step, then answer the same question again while it is fresh: a second try soon after is free.
