Is HireStepX free to use?

Yes. Start with 3 full AI mock interviews, complete with real-time feedback, scores, and detailed performance reports. No credit card required.

How does the AI mock interview work?

Upload your resume, pick your target company and role, and choose from 10 interview types. The AI interviewer asks role-specific questions via voice, listens to your answers, asks follow-up questions, and delivers scored feedback after each session.

What types of interviews can I practice?

10 types: Behavioral, Technical, Strategic, Case Study, Campus Placement, HR Round, Panel, Management, Salary Negotiation, and Government/PSU. Each with 3 difficulty levels and mini or full session options.

Can I practice for specific companies like TCS, Infosys, or Google?

Yes. We support 50+ target companies including Google, Amazon, TCS, Infosys, Flipkart, Razorpay, McKinsey, Deloitte, and more, each with distinct interview patterns.

How is this different from ChatGPT or practicing with friends?

ChatGPT is text-only with no voice, no scoring, no resume integration, and no progress tracking. HireStepX is a purpose-built interview simulator: voice-based, resume-personalized, with detailed analytics.

Is my interview data private and secure?

Yes. Data is encrypted via Supabase with row-level security. Recordings and transcripts are never shared with employers or third parties. Delete everything anytime from Settings.

Does HireStepX work on mobile?

Yes, on any modern browser. For the best experience during mock interviews, use a laptop or desktop with a microphone.

How much does it cost compared to a career coach?

A single coaching session typically costs ₹3,000-10,000. HireStepX is ₹10 per session, or ₹149/month for 30 sessions with full AI coaching and analytics, available 24/7.

Which companies and roles do you cover?

3,000+ companies (IT services, unicorns, PSUs, MNCs) across behavioural, campus placement, salary negotiation and HR rounds at launch.

How accurate is the AI score?

Benchmarked against real Indian hiring panels. Every score shows the rubric (STAR breakdown), not just a number.

Where does my voice data go?

Encrypted in transit and at rest. Auto-deleted after 90 days. Designed against DPDP Act 2023 from day one.

Which languages do you support?

English at launch. Hindi and other Indian languages are on the post-launch roadmap.

The interview help nobody made for you.

Built by candidates who sat through enough Indian loops to know what serious prep actually looks like.

“My seniors are too busy to mock me.”
An interviewer that picks up at 11pm the night before your Razorpay loop. No favours owed.
“ChatGPT just agrees with whatever I say.”
STAR rubric that calls out a missing Result, names the weakest beat, and rewrites the answer in your own voice.
“I forget half of what I prep in a week.”
Skill-decay tracking surfaces your weakest answer the day before the round it shows up in again.
