Big Interview Reviews

I liked the AI feedback tool that allowed me to respond to interview questions in a video recording and then recieve feedback.

Big Interview doesn't have personal human coaching

Helping the job seeker be successful in interviews by providing a platform to practice interviews and receive feedback from an

Big Interview is robust when it comes to its primary function: virtual interview practice. AI-powered feedback is a nice touch for providing users feedback without even needing to share their practice with others. Provides the ability to create custom interview questions and practices, but comes with hundreds (thousands?) of pre-built interviews across a huge range of professional fields and difficulty levels. In addition to interview practice, additional video-based curricula are available for things like salary negotiation, resume-building, and more.

The admin portal is lacking, with minimal reporting capabilities and lack of ability to fine tune admin/staff user privileges. The help/support site is pretty bare-bones, as well, and offers little help when you actually need it (lack of articles or topics simply not addressed at all). Live help is advertised as being live/available most of the time, but almost every time I've attempted to contact them that way, my message gets marked as "read" then a while later it tells me I was disconnected for no activity and the support person is no longer available.

Big Interview is easy to set up, you can be live in a couple weeks. My biggest recommendation would be to have a plan for marketing the platform and have some partnerships in place in advance to get immediate buy-in. Students aren't necessarily inclined to use a platform like this for fun, they may need some 'motivation' to get in there and complete interviews or the other curricula.

I work with college students who are working toward part-time jobs, internships, and career positions. It is not practical for me to provide custom interview training/mock interviews to the vast majority of students, so Big Interview lets me easily scale services to our entire campus, including to faculty who wish to incorporate such content into their courses without necessarily wanting to 'assign' students to meet with me.

At Rider University Center for Career Development and Success, we have offered Big Interview as a resource and tool for our students and alumni for over five years. Our students and alumni have improved their skills by utilizing Big Interview on their own and with the support of their Career Coach. Additionally, Big Interview is always on point with the changing trends in recruiting, which is essential for college students looking to enter the competitive job market. I would highly recommend Big Interview to any college or university looking for a tool to assist students with the internship and job search process.

There is nothing that comes to find regarding features I do not like.

Allowing students to practice and get feedback via AI before a meeting to do a mock interview with their Career Coach.

Big Interview is used by career center staff and faculty to help students practice elevator pitches and prepare them for virtual a virtual interviews. The specialized categories of questions by industry have helped some students land a job. They exclaim, "Those were the exact questions I was asked!" It is simple to use, and students have zero technical issues figuring it out. Many complete the assignment using their SMART phone, which reflects the real world. The best part is - it's affordable!

Creating assignments. I use my own template document and have to "paste" the code for each course. On other products I paste in the class emails and the message is sent automatically with directions.

We have been using Big Interview for four years - prior to COVID. Now that a majority of interviews are virtual - this is being used campus-wide to prepare students. Glad we were prepared! Also, since we cannot do mock interviews on campus - this gives students some real-life experiences.

Excellent customer support, easy-to-use/student-friendly interface, and helpful content.

Would like a bit more user-friendly process for developing class assignments and custom interview sets.

We use Big Interview to help students prepare for virtual interviews (which is a necessary skill, now more than ever).

Big Interview has a multitude of features that are great for preparing for interviews in a myriad of different industries. The vast question library sorted by industry, competency and other categories is extremely helpful for creating customized interview sets with ease. Furthermore, I have found the questions to be quite relevant and current with today's industry and social trends.

When rating and reviewing interview assignments, I am unable to change the criteria by which I rate assignments. Given the many ways in which interviewers today evaluate their candidates, I would like to be able customize the criteria I use when giving feedback to students. The ability to do so would make the platform even more realistic and beneficial for its users.

I would highly suggest that any institution involved in preparing individuals for their careers and interviews seriously consider using Big Interview. Big Interview provides an efficient platform by which to give realistic practice and timely interview feedback to those individuals in a remote manner that is suitable for the busy, demanding schedules students and professionals alike have today. Also, Big Interview has many educational resources and modules for its users to explore to become more knowledgeable and adept at interviewing, salary negotiation and many other valuable skills.

I have been able to help students adequately prepare for and adjust to the increased use of digital interviews by large financial firms today for their use in vetting candidates. Being forced to talk to a computer's camera can be awkward and having minimal time to answer a question can be tough. With the use of Big Interview, however, I have increased the likelihood students at my school will perform well in such digital interviews.

THe best thing about the Big interview software is it provides immense of materials for the candidates to learn. The other best thing about this is course notes. they are very easy to understand.

Feedback on the submitted assignment is the only thing this software should take care of.

I highly recommended this software to my calssmates seeking jobs.

I am preparing for my interview with the help of this software.

The option to either using the fast track or the mastery track is the best feature. If I am in a hurry to prepare for an interview, I am given the most important preparation tools via the fast track option. On the other hand, if I have time and just want to improve my interviewing skills I can take the mastery track. Also, there are a lot of resources provided to me, especially the virtual interview through which I can prepare my answers and they are recorded and I am given feedback.

The thing I dislike about Big Interview is that there are too many headings to choose from. I do not want to see so many headings as it makes the use of the tool intimidating. Also, the feedback is not given immediately which is downer.

When using Big Interview, try to make the most out of the Tell A Story feature as it is very helpful in building a story about urself. This will help you answer STAR questions.

The task in my organization is to find candidates for the certain positions. The Big Interview tool helps me prepare the questions I need in order to prepare the interview process for the positions.

.Practice session

Lots of resources

Good to practice interviewing

Not a lot of time to complete/use all of the resources in 30 days

The interview “roulette” option is fantastic for students that struggle with the “unknown” aspects of interviewing. It can show them in the video review what their initial reactions are truly like.

It is nice that there is the ability to preset interviews, but it can be a bit clunky and time consuming

It’s a good product, you just have to weigh the cost with the outcomes

At my institution we had a need for assisting a larger number of students with practice interviews. Big interview gave us this ability without having to find additional mock interview volunteers.
