    How We Reimagined Developer Assessment: From Resumes to Voice AI Interviews

    We've thought long and hard about how to properly assess developers.

    And we've come to an uncomfortable conclusion:

    • 📄 resumes are noise
    • 🧠 interview answers are often prepared
    • 🤖 and classic tests are easily bypassed with AI

    That's why we're building a different system.

    🔍 How the New Assessment Will Work

    We are moving away from "trusting words" → to skill evidence:

    • analysis of code and reactions to errors
    • verification of logical thinking, not just the result
    • assessment of answer depth in real-time
    • several independent AI assessments
    • a final calibrated score, not an "interviewer's feeling"

    👉 Key idea: it's not what the candidate said, but how they think that matters.

    🎤 Next Step - Voice Screening

    We are currently preparing to launch voice interviews (beta is already internal).

    What this will provide:

    • live dialogue instead of forms
    • skill verification without "prepared answers"
    • analysis of terminology, pauses, confidence
    • dynamic questions tailored to the candidate
    • identification of "hallucinations" and embellished experience

    👉 Essentially, this isn't "a bot asking questions," but AI conducting a technical interview like an engineer.

    ⚙️ What's Important

    This isn't just recruiter automation.

    This is an attempt to build a system that:

    • learns from hiring outcomes itself
    • understands the real skill level, not just the resume
    • and over time becomes more accurate than any human

    We are currently testing internally. Access will soon be opened to early specialists.
