What Is an AI Interview?
Also called: AI-powered interview · automated interview · AI-based interviews
Definition
An AI Interview is a technology-driven hiring process where artificial intelligence is used to assess candidates’ skills, communication, and behavior—either through recorded responses or live interaction. These interviews use algorithms to analyze speech, facial expressions, language, and more, helping employers streamline screening, improve fairness, and make faster decisions.
