AI interviewer
Candidates speak with an AI that asks your questions, listens to their answers and asks follow-up questions. They can do it any time, from anywhere.
Two ways to interview
You choose for each interview. Both are scored the same way, on the same skills.
| Feature | AI-led | Scripted |
|---|---|---|
| Where questions come from | Built from your skills and job description | Written or approved by you |
| Follow-up questions | Yes | — |
| Same questions for everyone | Same skills, different wording | Yes |
| Question count | 3–15 | One for each question you write |
| Best for | Digging into experience and judgment | Interviews that must be identical for everyone, for example to meet strict rules |
Follow-ups
A first answer is often rehearsed. In AI-led mode, the interviewer picks up on what the candidate said and asks them to explain more.
Settings
Candidates use a camera and microphone. The video is saved with the transcript.
Candidates need only a microphone. This works better on phones and slow internet connections.
30 or 60 minutes. Candidates can see how much time has passed.
3 to 15 questions. The time is shared out between them.
The AI asks every question in the language you choose.
LessRounds suggests skills and writes draft questions for you to edit.
In scripted mode, you can give a hard question extra time.
Candidates are warned for abuse, going off topic or trying to trick the AI. A second warning ends the interview.
Transparency
Candidates know who they are talking to before they start.
Before the interview begins, candidates are told it’s run by AI, that it’s recorded, and that it happens in one sitting. They check their camera and microphone, then start when they’re ready.
The interviewer doesn’t make hiring decisions and doesn’t tell candidates how they did. It asks the questions, listens and passes everything to you.
It speaks with a natural voice and waits for the candidate to finish before it replies. It never pretends to be human. Candidates are told before they start that an AI is running the interview.
AI-led interviews build questions from the skills you set and ask follow-ups based on each answer. Scripted interviews ask exactly the questions you wrote, in order, word for word, with no follow-ups. Use scripted when you need every candidate asked the same thing. Use AI-led when you want the interviewer to dig deeper into each answer.
The interviewer gives a warning for abusive language, going off topic, or trying to trick it into doing something else. A second warning ends the interview. The warnings and their reasons are recorded, and you see them in the candidate’s results.
They can try. Follow-up questions make it harder, because they’re based on what the candidate just said. Scoring also marks answers that sound read out, vague or like they dodge the question, so you can take a closer look.
You choose a time limit of 30 or 60 minutes, with 3 to 15 questions. The AI finishes as soon as it has asked every question.
