Practice interviews with our AI Interviewer, access mock interviews, and create ATS-friendly resumes for free. Ideal for early career job seekers and fresh graduates.

I’m building something for College Students and really need your honest feedback - am I actually solving real problems we face? So here’s what’s keeping me up at night - when I was hunting for my first job, I kept hitting these walls:

Knew my tech stuff but struggled badly to express it in interviews (the nervousness is real!) Had to rebuild my resume again and again for different roles (took 1-2 hours each time!) Wasted hours on job sites showing “fresher friendly” jobs that actually needed 2+ years experience

I’m trying to fix these headaches with CareerGenie where:

There’s a voice-based AI interviewer you can practice with 24/7 - it’s like talking to a real person who:

Makes you comfortable first (no robot vibes!) Gives feedback on your confidence and tone Analyzes your technical answers Shows exactly where to improve

For resumes:

Build ATS-friendly resumes easily (just fill in your info, we handle the formatting) Best part? If you apply somewhere, we can align your general resume to that specific job in just 30 seconds!

And yes, you tell us your preferences, and our AI shows jobs you ACTUALLY qualify for (no more fake “fresher” listings!)

But here’s what keeps bothering me:

Would you actually use an AI interviewer to practice? (I made it voice-based because who likes typing during interviews!) Is instant resume customization something you need? What else makes you nervous about job hunting?

We’ve got about 4,200 jobs listed already, but I really want to know - am I missing something that would help you nail those interviews? Would mean a lot to hear your thoughts! 🎓 (P.S. If you want to check it out, it’s at careergenie.in - but more than that, I want to know if I’m building something truly useful for us students)

    Getting interview practise is no bad thing. Being interviewed is a skill you learn to be sure.

    I think a lot of people miss that interviews in the technical world are often not smartly dressed exams. Some are, but those are probably jobs where they won’t mentor you and invest in you. They expect you to come fully developed.

    Good interviewers are trying to imagine you as an every-day team member. Will you…

    • …work well with others?
    • …be engaged with the problem space?
    • …ask for clarifications or just make assumptions to avoid appearing “dumb”?
    • …let a lack of knowledge on something become a road block?

    Knowledge is easy to give you. These things are much harder to teach.

    Also, knowledge based questions might be designed to find your limit. So if you don’t know something, that doesn’t mean it’s pointless from that point on. The interviewer may just have pushed you to your limit, and only they know if that was good enough. Keep going, stay engaged.

    I don’t know if any of that helps you design your bot, but maybe it gives you some ideas about being an interviewer.
