Recognizing that interviews are a critical step in the recruitment process – and a significant pain point for many job seekers – HelloBoss developed the AI Mentor feature to address key challenges such as interview anxiety and inadequate preparation. In fact a survey* reveals that over 90% of job seekers feel intimidated by interviews, with nervousness often leading to underperformance.
The newly launched AI Mentor continuously learns from each job seeker’s resume, in-app behavior, and ongoing conversations to deliver tailored mock interview practices with real-time voice interaction. By bridging the gap between qualified candidates and companies, it enhances hiring success for both sides. This feature goes beyond recruitment by offering career consulting and life-design advice, supporting career growth and improving the quality of life for job seekers. Ultimately, it contributes to increased societal productivity and revitalization.
