Question 1

Is InterviewMate free to start?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sign in with Google and start a live mock interview in your browser—no card required to try. Session options and limits can change as we grow; what you see in the product after sign-in is always current.

Question 2

Where do the interview questions come from?

Accepted Answer

We maintain company- and role-specific questions and sample answers ourselves—not a random AI prompt generator. When you pick a company, role, and job description, the session is shaped around that material so practice feels like a real loop.

Question 3

Which roles can I practice for?

Accepted Answer

Freshers and juniors (campus / entry-level screens), plus DevOps, SRE, software engineering, Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), platform engineering, ML/AI, data engineering, security, backend, and related roles. Choose your target company, set the interviewer style, paste the job description, and optionally upload your CV so questions track the role you actually want.

Question 4

Is InterviewMate good for freshers and less-experienced candidates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Freshers and juniors often under-practice speaking under pressure. InterviewMate runs live voice mock interviews for introductions, project deep-dives, HR/behavioral rounds, and technical discussion—then scores what to fix before campus or off-campus interviews.

Question 5

How is InterviewMate different from Pramp or interviewing.io?

Accepted Answer

Pramp-style tools often need a peer match; interviewing.io-style coaching often needs a booked human slot. InterviewMate is on-demand solo live voice practice with curated company questions and a consistent scored report—so you can run many short sessions before a real interview.

Question 6

How is InterviewMate different from reading a question list?

Accepted Answer

Lists don’t create pressure. InterviewMate runs a live voice session—you answer out loud—then gives you a scored report with strengths, gaps, and stronger sample answers so you know what to fix before the real interview.

Question 7

Do I need to install an app?

Accepted Answer

No. Everything runs in the browser. Allow microphone access when the interview starts so the live session can hear your answers.

Question 8

How long is a practice session?

Accepted Answer

You choose the duration when you set up the interview (commonly about 20–45 minutes). Shorter sessions are great for focused drills; longer ones feel closer to a full screen or onsite loop.

Question 9

What do I get after the interview?

Accepted Answer

A clear report: score breakdown, communication notes, gaps to close, and improved sample answers. Your transcript stays with your session history so you can review and practice the weak spots again.

Question 10

Is my CV and conversation private?

Accepted Answer

Your CV and interview content are used to run and score your practice session. We don’t sell your data. Sign-in uses Google so we never store a separate password for InterviewMate. For account questions, email admin@manifestjob.com.
