alt Hacker NewsWe are doing AI screening. Candidate works with AI for 15 minutes and session is recorded. We review real output not AI generated resume. If candidate can get AI to apply and produce meaningful output then maybe we should hire that candidate. Currently outputs are manually reviewed but easy enought to have AI screen outputs.

Where do you work?
Mostly so that I can know to never apply, because that application process sounds awful and degrading.
If I am applying for a job, I invest my (valuable) time in them. I expect my counterpart to return that favour.
Anything else would be a quick bail for me, and I expect over time anyone who hires in disrespectful ways will get the candidates they deserve.
I hope you're aware that you'll lose a lot of top talent that way who won't put up with that.
I use AI for practically everything but I never outsource judgement calls to it, wish you luck, I’d love to see the postmortem.
This sucks man.
The inundation of AI applications is shitty, but I think this side of the coin—AI interviewer—is even worse. This is degrading for a human applicant, and after the very immediate term it’s probably not going to be very useful. Instead of grinding leetcode, people are going to be grinding the AI interview, which is depressing to even consider. Not only that, but there’s also going to be an arms race of AI tools that can ace the AI interview for you.
