Amazing people of Grapevine, let's make Round1 AI better together ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿงก

We're building Round1 with a lot of heart, and we really want to make sure it helps Grapeviners with making the right jumps in life.

I am specifically hoping to understand:

  • What did you like?
  • What did you not like? What should we make better?
  • What made you hesitate before starting your first call? Can we make the flow smoother?
  • If you haven't tried yet, why is that? How can we make you try it.

Feel free to drop comments/or just message me on WhatsApp (โ€ช+91 7411762523โ€ฌ). It would mean a lot if I could talk to a few of you, and make it better together.

Thanks, Unpaid Intern

Mock interview by AI is something which wonโ€™t appeal to many, at least not to me.

Got it @shpinq
Just checking if you also tried the product and felt similarly?

Our primary reason to build it was: people need more preparation on how to speak in interviews, doing that prep today is tough with humans (you need to convince a friend), and voice is the most common medium - it can allow you to solve more cases/problems without it feeling unnatural

But would love to understand why it's not appealing as an idea? Are you someone who's interviewing in general?

I was intrigued, but it felt a bit off when it asked me for my resume and LinkedIn profile URL. The reason for me was that I do not want to share it with a platform that fundamentally focuses on anonymity.

On a second order thought, this might be a turn off for a lot of people, since a lot of folks share some dark things here, or do general masti that they otherwise won't do, and sharing LinkedIn or resume might make them feel dangerous for their GV persona. Although I am not sure, since you have a lot of company verified users on the platform.

Bhai yahan kuch din pehle ek Banda kisi married colleague ke sath affair rakhne ki baat kr raha tha. Waise logo ko paranoia hoga he.

I personally don't give a damn, as I don't share anything here that I won't share in my organisation's grapevine. I just didn't find giving my LinkedIn details and resume for a mock interview justified. And the rest, i spoke from a general user's point of view. Don't do unnecessary personal attacks.

I like it, did a couple of case style ones I'd last practiced them when prepping for McKinsey and Bain - and they would have changed my life if I had this then

Go sell this in undergrads like IITs / Stephens / SRCC or ISB IIMs. It'll definitely do extremely well

Truely amazing. This will help me to be confident before facing a real interview. Please add technical interviews as well.

This means everything to me Absolutely Iโ€™ll add more, feel free to drop suggestions for companies/roles here

IMHO, people should be able to choose technologies like c, python, etc... Then company profiles can be built upon this core data anyways as it will be subset n union of these core technologies anyways. Wish u good luck!

There should be an option to check previously attended interviews history in profile and see the results

In UI, make it clear that for which interviews scores/feedback will be generated and how much time it will take to generate it.

For the level 1 it's okay . But please improve on the aspect where it asks relevant questions. Only the first question is relevant. Rest are the very micro level questions

That's very fair. I'll make sure we add more relevant questions and perhaps tougher ones too.

Don't listen to other people, the product is best and helping me in best possible way to prepare for interview. I did many interviews and it worked flawlessly. Kudos to all of you who worked for it. Hardwork paid off. I don't think any changes required at this point. All good.

It's helpful. I love it, I took an' Amazon full stack' 3 mins interview. Not sure how accurate it is to the real world, Voice felt like a little stereotypic,.But it was pretty, above my expectations

Means so much to hear that We've picked questions from real interviews
