Have to take one soon for job interview. Basically, the computer analyzes everything I do while it records me answering questions asked. and it passes my results back to the humans for a pass/fail once the assessment has been done. The assessment looks at stuff like word choice, facial patterns, eye fluctuations, all that jazz.

I can't say I'm looking forward to a computer analyzing me with no human interaction.

Lmao!

OP, sounds pretty stupid to me. Sounds like a company that doesn't believe a word a person says, and would rather rely on analytics instead of human judgement.

In fact, it sounds a lot like what Ben Stiller did in "Along Came Polly".

If they want a robot to do the job why don't they just do that?

Unfortunately, it's becoming industry wide. The companies claim that so many people apply to them they need a weeding out process. The argument could be made it gives some people the opportunity to showcase where they would never have been even considered. But that doesn't mean I have to like it!

I don't know about that? I took an interview with a big tech company where I had to write code for a guy and discuss it. It was basically a goto meeting.

I had to do a recorded video interview where they would propose a question and you would record a video of your response. Maybe there were additional analytics going on but I wasn't aware of it at the time. I can understand some of the logic behind the idea but it was extremely awkward and overall lazy on their part. Not a good candidate experience IMO.

If it was fake horrible, wouldn't that be good?

No. You can have an accent that is both fake and horrible.

You can also fake how horrible it is. Or have it horribly fake.

If I was you, I'd do the entire interview only mouthing the words.

I don't think I've ever heard you speak before Mr. Pfeffer.
