Pro Tips for Success

Preparation is Key

The more you prepare, the better the AI can assist. Upload detailed materials and practice scenarios first.

Don't Rely Entirely on AI

AI is a coach, not a crutch. Use it to enhance your natural responses, not replace your own thinking.

Practice Before Real Interviews

Use 3-5 practice sessions with private mode before your real interview to get comfortable with the setup.

Monitor Your Pace

AI suggestions appear quickly. Develop your own pace and use suggestions strategically, not constantly.

Test Your Setup

Test audio, video, and suggestion display before your real interview. Technical issues are distracting.

Multi-Monitor Setup Recommended

Two screens allow you to see interview on one and AI coaching on another without awkward splits.
