Practice

A spoken mock interview that listens and asks the follow-up

1 credit per session Account required

What it does

Practice runs a mock interview against a specific application, spoken or typed, asking follow-up questions based on what you actually answer.

It grades the session against the tailored resume you sent for that job and returns a scorecard with a note on each answer.

The practice interview setup for a Senior Product Designer role at GitLab: a choice between rerunning the same round or a new interview, a voice or text toggle, a start button, and below it last time's scorecard rating answered the question 4 out of 5, complete stories 3, grounded in your resume 5, quantified results 4 and got to the point 3, with a written summary underneath.
Pick voice or text, then run it. Your last scorecard sits underneath, so you can see what moved.

When to use it

  • You have read the briefing and want to rehearse before the real thing.
  • You keep freezing on the same question and want to run it a few times.

How to use it

  1. Build the briefing first

    Practice unlocks once that application has a prep briefing, because the questions come from it. The button stays disabled until then.

  2. Choose voice or text

    Voice is the point of the exercise. Text mode exists for when you cannot speak out loud, and costs the same.

  3. Run the session

    Answer each question as you would in the real thing. Follow-ups come from your answers. Starting a session is what spends the credit.

  4. Read the scorecard

    You get an overall score, what worked, what to fix, and a critique of each individual answer with your pace and filler count.

  5. Run it again

    Repeat rounds against the same briefing are how this gets useful. Each round is another credit.

What it costs

1 credit per session

One credit per session, whether you choose voice or text. Taken when the round starts and refunded in full if you leave before answering anything, so opening a round to look at it costs nothing. Reviewing a finished session afterwards is free.

How credits work

Good to know

  • Each round costs a credit

    Three practice rounds against one briefing is three credits. The briefing itself was a separate one.

  • Backing out is free

    The credit is taken when the round starts, but a round you leave before answering a single question is refunded in full. Once you have answered something, it counts.

  • Voice needs a microphone

    Your browser will ask for microphone permission. If you decline, or you are somewhere you cannot talk, use text mode.

  • A good score is not a prediction

    It measures this rehearsal against your own application. It cannot tell you what a particular interviewer will think of you.
