Setting Up AissenceAI for Zoom Interviews
Zoom is the most popular platform for remote job interviews. Here's the complete guide to using AissenceAI with Zoom — from audio configuration to stealth overlay positioning.
Zoom Audio Configuration
- Open Zoom Settings → Audio
- Set Speaker to your default output device (speakers or headphones)
- In AissenceAI, select "System Audio" as the capture source
- This captures the interviewer's voice directly from Zoom's audio output
- Test: Join a test meeting and verify the transcription appears in AissenceAI
Stealth Mode with Zoom
AissenceAI's stealth overlay is automatically excluded from Zoom's screen sharing and recording. Even if the interviewer asks you to share your screen, the overlay won't appear in the shared view.
Zoom-Specific Tips
- Gallery view — Use gallery view so the interviewer appears larger and your natural gaze direction shifts toward the AI overlay
- Dual monitors — Put Zoom on one screen and the overlay on another for maximum comfort
- Virtual background — Use one to ensure no one sees your physical screen from behind
- Mute when reading — Use strategic muting when reviewing longer suggestions
Also Works With
While this guide focuses on Zoom, AissenceAI works identically with Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and any other meeting platform. The setup process is the same since we capture system audio, not platform-specific audio.
