Maestro DocsAI mock interviews
How a spoken AI interview works, the controls, and what happens afterwards.
In an AI mock interview you answer questions out loud, like a real first-round interview. A test can have one as a section, or be only an interview.
What you need
- A quiet room, and ideally headphones.
- A microphone. A standalone interview doesn't use your camera.
- A recent Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari.
Before it starts
In the lobby you check your microphone ("Say a few words so we know your mic works") and agree to your voice being recorded. The lobby also shows the rules: the time you get per answer, whether you can re-record ("First answer counts", or a set number of tries), and the captions setting.
Your voice is transcribed, the text is sent to an AI to score against a rubric, and a person may review the scores. Recordings are deleted after a retention period. Your transcript, scores and feedback stay.
During the interview
The interviewer asks each question aloud. In an adaptive interview, a follow-up tailored to what you said can come one question later. The round ends with "Any questions for me?"
To finish your answer you can:
- say "that's all",
- press I'm done answering (in a circuit round the button says I'm done building), or
- stay silent for a few seconds.
You can press Repeat the question, or just ask for it to be repeated or explained. Say "skip" to skip a question, or "give me a moment" for more time. The screen tells you whose turn it is, for example "Your turn · take your time" or "Listening · pauses are fine".
If your connection drops
Reopen the interview and it continues from the same question. If you press leave, the Leave the interview? window confirms that what you said is saved, and you can come back before the time runs out.
When it finishes
You'll see "That's the end of your interview — your feedback appears once they're scored." AI-scored interviews can still be checked by a reviewer, and the result tells you when that happened.
Credits and limits
AI interviews count against your plan or your college's credits. If you're out, you'll see a message saying so, or that you've reached today's fair-use limit. Try again the next day.
