    Understand AI interview score

    scheduleLast updated on November 13, 2026

    The AI interview score is a measure that evaluates a candidate's interview performance based on the transcript of their conversation. It focuses only on the content of their answers and doesn't consider any biometric or video features.

    How does it work?

    The score ranges from 0 to 5, with increments of 0.5. A score of 5 shows the strongest alignment with the recruiter's questions and the position requirements.

    The AI Interview score evaluates the interview transcript. It assesses the candidate's answers in the interview in the context of the questions in feedback form or the position requirements. The set of criteria for evaluation is generated directly from the job description and the feedback form.

    Each criterion is evaluated individually, and the scores are combined to give you an overall score.

    Example

    Here's an example AI evaluation criteria, along with the inputs. The criteria are generated from the job description or the feedback form.

    Input AI evaluation criteria
    “Teamwork with internal and external departments is necessary to ensure the achievement of overall team goals.” "Collaboration with internal and external teams"
    “Develop process guides and training materials for global and country-specific enhancements across talent acquisition platforms.” "Designing and delivering training programs"
    “Performs basic product design, testing and/or analysis work for a defined portion of a project.” "Product design and testing experience"
    “You will get to: Work with accounting and suppliers to reconcile invoice variances…Engage directly with suppliers on purchase order management.” "Invoice and purchase order management"
    “Configure and manage CI/CD pipelines in GitLab to streamline the deployment process. Deep expertise in designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines.” "CI/CD pipeline design and maintenance"

    What happens next?

    The AI interview score is directional, meaning it provides a general indication of candidate performance. Next, recruiters review the filled feedback form to make a final assessment and decide whether to move the candidate forward in the interviewing process. The organization retains full control over the interview process and evaluation.
