What is Hirezen?
Hirezen enhances the quality and fairness of technical hiring through standardized interview procedures: every round follows a pre-designed plan covering opening, questions, closing, and corresponding signals; all interviewers use the same round-specific script, ensuring comparability across evaluations; critical competencies must be independently assessed twice by at least two different interviewers; and AI only assists in drafting feedback and suggesting follow-up questions, never substituting for human judgment or decision-making. The platform supports various types of technical interviews—from system design and LLM system design to behavioral assessments—covering 209 roles including Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) and AI Engineers, with 39 categories of observable signals and 6,653 reusable templates built-in.
Key features
Structured interview planning: Each round includes a defined duration, a list of questions, and scoring criteria (such as “proposes a scalable architecture” or “considers high availability”), enabling recruiters to conduct initial technical screenings for non-technical roles and objectively score candidates based on these criteria.
AI-assisted feedback generation: During the interview, notes and signal markers are recorded in real time. Based on this input, AI automatically drafts structured feedback—including strengths, concerns, and recommendation levels—while retaining the interviewer’s final review and editing rights, never replacing human judgment.
Use cases and audience
Hiring managers, technical interviewers, recruiters, and engineering teams that require structured, compliant, and reproducible technical interview processes.
- Plan and execute standardized multi-round technical interviews for recruiting teams, such as those involving system design, coding, and LLM system design.
- Let non-technical recruiters (such as hiring managers) conduct the first round of technical screening, evaluating candidate performance based on predefined signals.
- Under compliance conditions—without audio recording and without real-time AI intervention—structured scripts and signal tagging ensure fairness and comparability in interviews.
Interview plans (including questions, time limits, and listenable signals), along with real-time notes and signal markings (Yes/No/Undecided) entered by interviewers, plus basic candidate information.
Drafts of structured interview feedback (featuring observation summaries and recommendation levels ranging from Strong No to Strong Yes), as well as collaborative debriefing pages showing each interviewer’s independent recommendation without averaging scores.
Frequently asked questions
Does Hirezen record or transcribe the interview?
No recording, no transcription. No bots join the call; whether online or offline, audio, video, or text records are never stored.
Does Hirezen’s AI make decisions on behalf of the interviewer?
No. The AI only suggests questions, drafts feedback, and assists in screening candidates upon request; all signal labeling and final recommendations are made by the interviewer themselves.
