If I completely bomb an interview with company x I know I'm done with company x. But that's it. If I completely bomb an interview with aircto, it's on my record for every company that uses you. So I closed the door on a lot of potential companies with one bad interview. I would never take that risk...

@bulleitandcoke Possibly. But if a candidate is technically bad for a specific job then he is more likely going to be a bad fit for other companies as well (at least for some time till he improves his technical skills). With our interview data, we have found that 68% of the candidates are bad fits. And that's the whole point, why waste company's time if he is anyway not going to pass the technical round successfully. :)

@aatifh I'm talking from the candidate point of you. Why would I agree to interview with you, knowing that one bad interview, blocks me from future opportunities. I'd just pass on that particular opportunity. And BTW. I think not letting candidates know that they are interviewing with a third party that is going to host their data, and possibly share it with other future opportunities, is unethical. You should think about that.

Hi @bulleitandcoke, we leave that decision to the company whether they want to bring Aircto into the scene or not. More importantly, we're not sharing any data without anyone's consent. Be it companies or candidates. Also, fresh interviews can always be conducted with the candidate for future companies since the job requirements often changes. Btw, we have done over 600 interviews and have never encountered any issues like this so far. :)

Greetings! Product hunters. Engineers are the backbone of a company. True! But there is something that disturbs their overall productivity. It is nothing but devoting their productive hours on interviewing unqualified candidates. Primarily, because of the discrepancies between the resume and actual skills of the candidate. As a result, you often end up interviewing unqualified candidates. We have developed a solution for it. Aircto has a curated list of technical experts who would screen candidates for you. Moreover, you get comprehensive feedback report of each interview sharing in-depth insights on the skills of the candidate. Let me give you the simple process as to how aircto works 1. Company uploads the resumes of the candidate to aircto system. 2. The proprietary algorithm then schedules the interview with relevant experts with the candidate. 3. The interview happens over a call. 4. A detailed feedback report is sent to the company for each interview. Let us know your views in the comments. We’ll truly appreciate it. :)

Great idea. We had our friends with strong tech backgrounds help us build our early tech team. And it helps enormously if the founding team doesn't have an engineering background

Cool concept... and could be quite useful, but I'd recommend redoing the audio track of the video with a person that is accent neutral, she is hard to understand quite a few times and this takes away from what you are trying to do. [I'm foreign myself so I understand and value diversity in case it's not clear from my comment but in sales you have to remove the barriers sadly... ]

@exlemor Thanks for your valuable input. We'll surely have a discussion about it with our sales team.

@akshayibanez great idea! To those concerned that candidates will be turned off when they discover the interview is being conducted by a 3rd party, I think honesty is the best policy. The CEO / hiring manager could explain they don't have a technical background or have had trouble evaluating tech ability in the past. I'd be way cooler with that than discovering the Aircto doesn't actually work for the company.

As someone who has done several interviews I don't see this being great for me having an outsider interview. They know nothing of the culture of that business.

Hi @nickprkins, makes sense. Aircto's interviews are technical interviews. Our experts never gauge for the candidate's cultural fit for the company because every business has their own culture. Though, we do vet for the passion for programming apart from the technical skills of the candidate.
