JobPath is a desktop app that helps you through technical interviews. An AI listens to the call and shows answers on your screen in real time. It stays invisible when you share your screen. Works with Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, and 13 other video tools including Russian ones. You also get 13,000+ practice questions, mock interviews with AI feedback, and cloud auto-applies on HH.ru with AI cover letters. Free tier, no card: 15 minutes of AI per interview, 15 auto-applies a day.

Tech interviews have been broken for years, and everyone in the industry knows it. Both of us were developers before starting JobPath. Between us we sat through a stupid number of technical interviews, on both sides of the table. The pattern was always the same. You memorize algorithms you'll never write. You reverse a linked list under a stopwatch while a stranger watches your face on Zoom. And somehow this is supposed to predict whether you'd be a good engineer. It doesn't. Nobody in HR is moving to fix it, because changing hiring processes is political and risky. Meanwhile developers waste months grinding LeetCode for a test that doesn't measure the actual work. So we built JobPath. It's a desktop app with an AI assistant that listens to the interview and suggests answers on your screen in real time. The part people ask about first: it's invisible when you share your screen. That invisibility isn't there to help anyone cheat. We just think the format itself is what's broken. Using an AI on a live coding puzzle is the same as using a calculator on a math exam. The test was supposed to measure understanding. It's measuring arithmetic speed. There's a line we won't cross. We don't work with medicine, finance, or any role where a wrong answer affects someone's health or money directly. Software, data, product roles are fine. Cardiology residency, quant trading are not. Happy to argue that one. A few things shifted while building it. We started with just the real-time assistant. Users kept asking for more of the workflow around interviews, so we added mock interviews, a 13,000+ question base, and resume tools. Auto-applies on HH.ru started as a side feature and became one of the most-used parts, especially for people doing 50+ applications a week. We originally planned paid-only, but after the first users told us a trial clock was stressful during an already stressful job search, we opened a real free tier. It's 15 minutes of AI per interview and 15 auto-applies a day, with no card and no time limit. Happy to answer questions about any of it, especially the ethical side. We genuinely want to know what a sane interview format could look like, because the current one isn't working for anyone.

Why Whisper breaks on Russian tech interviews — and what we did about it

In January I bought subscriptions to Cluely, Final Round AI, and Sensei. I wanted to see how they handle Russian tech interviews, since all three claim to support Russian. I connected them one at a time to a test call in Telemost (I doubt the platform mattered, but anyway), ran the same recording through each: Senior Python backend developer, 45 minutes, stack is FastAPI + PostgreSQL + Kafka + Kubernetes. Regular Russian speaker from Moscow, if that matters, no speech issues, normal microphone.

All three produced a transcript. All three failed, what a surprise.

How apps hide windows from screen capture — and what broke in macOS 15

If you screenshot Netflix or Spotify's playback window, you get a black rectangle where the video should be. Same thing when sharing your screen in Zoom, recording in OBS, even in Snipping Tool. Audio plays fine, content is gone.
This isn't codec protection or some OpenGL surface trick. It's one flag in one API that tells the window system: "this window should not appear in captured frames." The flag is public, documented, has been in Windows 10 since 2020, and is used by any app that needs to hide content from screenshots password managers, banking clients, 2FA tokens.
On macOS there used to be a symmetric equivalent, but in macOS 15 Sequoia Apple broke it against ScreenCaptureKit, and now the situation there is considerably messier. On Linux it depends on the display server. In browsers it works through a chain of platform APIs.
We worked all this out while building a desktop app for online interviews that needs this mechanism for a concrete reason: the hints window shouldn't appear in the interviewer's screen share. One paragraph about the product at the end. Everything else in this article is about what's under the hood.
Who captures the screen when you hit Share Screen
When Zoom asks for screen sharing access, it's not taking photos of your monitor. It subscribes to a frame stream from the operating system. Which API it uses matters, because they have different architectures and different behavior with protected windows.
On Windows there are three main paths.
