What is an AI video interview?
An AI video interview is a one way interview the candidate records on their own time. Hirin.ai shows your role's questions on screen, the candidate answers on camera, and AI transcribes and scores each answer against your rubric, quoting the evidence. Integrity checks flag anything a person should look at, and your panel only watches the strongest interviews.

- 01 · Set up
Pick the role. Hirin.ai drafts the questions.

Candidates answer when it suits them.
No calendar back and forth. Candidates record on their phone or laptop at 7 am, 11 pm or on a Sunday, and get reminders on WhatsApp until they finish.

- BPrep time before each answer
- CSame questions and time limits for all
- 03 · Score
Scored against your rubric. With the evidence.
Every answer is transcribed and scored on what the candidate actually said, with the quotes that earned each score. No marks for accent, looks or background.
- 04 · Review
Your panel watches the best five. A person checks every flag.
The top interviews go to the hiring manager with two minute highlights and a scorecard. Integrity flags, like a long look away or an answer that matches AI generated text, go to a person to review. Nobody is rejected automatically.

How does Hirin.ai detect cheating in online interviews?
AI proctoring checks every video interview for the ways candidates fake one today: reading answers from ChatGPT or an AI interview assistant, glancing at notes on a second screen, or searching in another tab. Every interview gets the same checks, every flag is timestamped on the recording, and a person on your team makes the call.

- 01
Answer originality
Each spoken answer is compared with AI generated and web answers to the same question. Answers that read like ChatGPT or an AI interview assistant are flagged, with the matching text shown.
- 02
Time looking away
Measures how long and how often the candidate looks away from the screen while answering. Long glances at notes or a second screen show up on the timeline.
- 03
Tab switching
Logs every time the candidate leaves the interview window, and for how long, so a quick search in another tab doesn't go unnoticed.
- 04
A person decides
Flags sit next to the score, not inside it. Your team watches the flagged moment and decides. Hirin.ai never rejects a candidate or ends an interview automatically.

How is an AI video interview different from a first round panel interview?
A live first round depends on everyone's calendar and on who is asking the questions. A one way AI video interview gives every candidate the same questions and time limits, scores the answers the same way, and leaves your panel the final rounds.
| What matters | AI video interview with Hirin.ai | Live first round |
|---|---|---|
| Scheduling | One link. The candidate picks the time | Calendar back and forth across panel and candidate |
| When | Any hour, including evenings and weekends | Office hours |
| Questions | Same questions and time limits for everyone | Varies by interviewer |
| Scoring | Rubric scores with transcript evidence | Notes and gut feel |
| Integrity | Originality, looking away and tab checks, reviewed by a person | Hard to spot a second screen |
| Panel time | Watch the top five as two minute highlights | About an hour per candidate |
| Record | Video, transcript and scorecard on the profile | Notes spread across email threads |
How many panel hours would AI video interviews give back?
Assumes each first round takes about minutes, plus minutes of notes and feedback. Change them to match your team.
That's time your interviewers can spend on final rounds with the candidates who scored best.

Questions about AI video interviews
What is an AI video interview?
An AI video interview is a one way interview the candidate records on their own time. Hirin.ai shows your questions on screen, the candidate answers on camera, and AI transcribes and scores each answer against your rubric, quoting the evidence. Your panel then watches only the strongest interviews. Read how GrowExx fills tech roles 70% faster with one way video interviews. Video interview invites can go out automatically through recruitment automation.
What is a one way video interview?
A one way video interview, also called an asynchronous video interview, has no live interviewer. The candidate gets a link, reads each question and records an answer within a time limit, whenever it suits them. Recruiters and hiring managers watch the recordings later.
How does AI score a video interview?
Hirin.ai transcribes each answer and scores it against the rubric you set for the role, such as role knowledge, client handling and communication. Every score comes with the quotes from the transcript that earned it, so your team can check the reasoning and overrule any score. For IT hiring, teams often pair it with a coding test.
Does Hirin.ai judge facial expressions or accents?
No. Hirin.ai scores what the candidate says, not how they look or sound. Accent, appearance and background are not scored.
What is proctoring in an online interview?
Proctoring means supervising an interview or test to make sure the candidate answers honestly and on their own. In an AI video interview, AI proctoring does this automatically: it checks every recording for signs of help, such as reading answers, looking at notes or switching tabs, and flags those moments for a person to review. Proctored interviews are common in BFSI hiring, where identity checks matter.
How does Hirin.ai detect cheating in video interviews?
Three checks run on every interview: answer originality, which compares each spoken answer with AI generated and web answers, time spent looking away from the screen, and tab switching. Each flag is timestamped on the recording so your team can watch the exact moment. Hirin.ai never rejects a candidate or ends an interview automatically.
Can AI proctoring detect ChatGPT or AI interview assistants?
Hirin.ai compares what the candidate says with answers that AI tools typically generate for the same question, so an answer read out from ChatGPT or an AI interview assistant scores high on similarity and gets flagged. Reading usually also shows up as time looking away. A person then reviews the recording before anything changes for the candidate.
Can candidates take the interview on their phone?
Yes. Candidates open the link in their phone or laptop browser and record there. Reminders go out on WhatsApp and email until they finish.
How long does an AI video interview take?
Most first round interviews have four to six questions with one to two minutes per answer, so candidates usually finish in 15 to 25 minutes. You set the number of questions and the time limit for each.
Do candidates like one way video interviews?
Most candidates like being able to interview after work or on a weekend instead of taking time off. They see the questions in a fixed format, get the same time as everyone else, and hear back faster.
Is AI video interviewing compliant with India’s DPDP Act?
Candidates are told what is recorded and why before they start, recordings are used for that hiring process only, and access is limited to your hiring team. Hirin.ai is built to support India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
Will AI video interviews replace our interview panel?
No. They replace the first round, not the people who decide. Your panel spends its time on final rounds with the candidates who scored best, and makes every hiring decision. Selected candidates move to offer management, where documents and the offer letter go out on WhatsApp.
