Artificial intelligence can be very useful on the side of HR professionals, but also on the side of candidates.
Candidates already have at their disposal a myriad of AI-enabled apps to search for job offers, fill out forms quickly from different employers or job portals, make better cover letters, polish their resumes and even prepare for job interviews.
These are valuable tools that can help applicants stand out and carve out a niche in today's competitive job market.
The range is very wide. There are those that simulate a video interview and use facial recognition, others that focus on the words used, others that are in charge of generating ad hoc interviews according to the positions applied for, etc. The limits are only in the imagination of the developers.
In this list we offer you some of the most effective apps to help candidates handle these meetings with recruiters.
Interview Warmup
Even Google has taken the plunge to create tools to prepare for interviews with AI. A couple of years ago it introduced a software called Interview Warmup. The pity is that it is only available in English.
This chatbot offers you to answer questions from industry experts. You just have to give an answer in voice and your answers will be transcribed in real time.
Interview Warmup suggests ideas, shows you the words you have used the most so that you can correct your mumbo-jumbo and shows you the conversation topics you covered.
You have the opportunity to practice in specific fields such as data analytics, digital marketing and e-commerce, IT support, project management, user experience design, cybersecurity, but also in general topics.
The best thing is that this tool from the Mountain View firm is free and you can try your luck with the questions you have already done as much as you want to polish the answers as much as you want or venture into new questions.
Talkberry
Thanks to this tool candidates can improve their fluency by speaking in multiple languages. The application has more than 20 scenarios to explore different topics.
Talkberry integrates language tutors with artificial intelligence technology, providing users with feedback and comments on their speech in real time to improve quickly.
This app is ideal for preparing for job interviews, but also for oral exams or public presentations.
In principle, the tool can be used for free, although with limitations, as it has a pay-per-use credit system. It is a webapp, but soon they will also launch a mobile application.
Huru.ai
Application available for web (through a Chrome extension) and with mobile versions for iOS and Android.
Huru's biggest advantage is that it contains a wide variety of interviews for different professions or positions. In addition, it has the ability to automatically generate a mock interview using any job description posted on LinkedIn or portals such as Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter and Monster.
In total this free-to-use app can provide more than 20,000 mock interviews, they state on their website.
Huru provides active job seekers with instant feedback on their answers, speech analysis and suggested answers. In the latter respect, it lends candidates a hand in highlighting their skills and making a good impression on recruiters. All thanks to AI.
Interview Prep AI
This app prepares candidates and helps them hone their public speaking skills with an AI-powered virtual coach to practice before having an actual interview.
Users simply upload their resume or manually enter their work history. They then do the same with information about the desired position and interview details. Afterwards, they receive instant feedback.
With Interview Prep AI, mock interviews can be conducted in video, audio and text format.
An interesting detail is that users have access to visual reports and metrics to track their progress over time.
