Voice mock interviews for AI and ML engineers.
Answer out loud, hear the examiner's follow-up as you finish, and get a report that cites your recorded answers against the same fixed criteria as a text mock.
This page explains what happens in a spoken sitting, what the examiner grades, and how to choose between voice and text before you start. It draws only on what the product already does; nothing here promises a specific interview outcome.
What a voice mock is
A voice mock interview is a timed AI/ML technical mock you answer out loud instead of typing. The examiner listens to your answer, asks a follow-up as soon as you finish speaking, and grades the transcript against the same fixed criteria as a text mock. Live captions show what the examiner heard, and you can switch to text at any point in the sitting.
How a spoken sitting runs
- Choose your role, seniority and two to four questions; the time budget is shown before you start.
- The microphone stays off until you start it.
- You answer each question aloud.
- The follow-up arrives as soon as you finish speaking.
- Live captions show what the examiner heard.
- You can switch to text at any point in the sitting.
- The timer runs with no hints and no pauses.
- After the last question, you get the debrief.
What is graded, and what is not
The examiner grades the reasoning in your transcript against fixed criteria that are reviewed before the mock and cannot change mid-interview. Feedback cites evidence from your recorded answers. When the evidence is too thin to support a finding, the report marks it inconclusive rather than guessing, and topics the sitting did not reach stay marked untested.
Because grading works from the transcript, delivery is not part of the score: accent, pace and filler words are not graded.

- Your classifier is 99% accurate. Is it ready to ship?
- YOU
- The accuracy is high, so I would deploy it.
- EXAMINER · FOLLOW-UP
- Only 1% of examples are positive. What would always predicting negative score, and what would you measure next?
Voice or text: how to choose
Both modes run the same mock and are graded the same way, on the reasoning in your transcript. In text, you write your answer, with support for equations and a notebook. In voice, you speak, the examiner speaks back, and captions show what it heard as you go. The free first mock always runs in text. Choose voice if your actual interviews are spoken and you want to practise thinking out loud under a clock.

Questions about voice mocks
Is the free mock available in voice?
No. The one free completed mock runs in text. Voice mocks are included on the Voice plan.
What are the live captions during a voice mock?
As you speak, captions show what the examiner heard in real time, so you can see the words your answer will be graded on as the sitting happens.
Can I switch from voice to text in the middle of a mock?
Yes, at any point in the sitting. If you cannot talk aloud partway through, switch to typing and continue the same mock.
Is my speaking style part of the grade?
No. The examiner grades the reasoning in your transcript against fixed criteria; how you sound is not scored.
Which plan includes voice mocks?
The Voice plan includes everything in the Text plan, plus spoken mocks with a live examiner and captions. A 3-month Voice cycle is also available at a lower monthly rate. See current prices in the plans above.
