Interviews candidates take on their own time

Candidates answer a short set of job-related questions in writing, when it suits them. Voice and video answers are planned, and the table below says when. A recruiter reviews the transcript and decides.

How candidates answer

ModeAvailabilityHow it works for the candidate
TextAvailable now, the defaultOne question at a time. Answers save as the candidate goes, so they can stop and come back.
VoiceFrom release 1.0 (target: Q4 2027), optionalRecorded in the browser on a phone or computer, after a device check and a practice question that is not stored.
VideoFrom release 1.0 (target: Q4 2027), optional and never requiredAvailable when an employer wants it. Candidates can always answer by text or voice instead, and video is never analyzed for faces or expressions.

Until then, candidates answer in writing. The demo shows voice and video answers with prepared transcripts. Recorded answers will allow one re-record per question. Candidates read their own transcript and can correct it before they submit.

Before anything is recorded, the candidate sees what will happen to their answers and how to ask for something different.
  • What is recorded, who can see it, and that recordings are kept in Canada.
  • That transcripts are evaluated with AI services in the United States, after names and contact details are removed.
  • That there is no analysis of faces, tone of voice, emotions or personality.
  • That recordings are deleted 90 days after the interview, unless a legal hold applies.

Candidates can ask for extra time, answer by text only, or have an interview with a person instead. Requests go to the recruiter and are tracked like any other task.

Evaluated from the transcript

The evaluation reads the words, not the person. Each score points at the sentence it relies on.
  • A score from 0 to 5 for each criterion in the approved rubric, with a one-sentence reason.
  • Every quote is checked to appear word for word in the transcript.
  • Limitations are stated: a short answer or a missing topic is reported, not guessed at.
  • The recruiter decides with their own reason. When the interview completes, the 45-day outcome clock starts.
Close-up of the AI evaluation of C-00015’s interview: evaluated from the transcript only, with no facial, voice or emotion analysis; model confidence 89%; personal care experience scored 5 out of 5, with two quotes from the written answers, each labelled with its question.
Each criterion score quotes the answer it rests on. Screenshot of the demo, with fictional people and companies.

Scheduling the next conversation

The recruiter proposes three times; the candidate picks one on their phone and gets a calendar file in their language.
