Last year, we added salary estimates to the mix, using AI to predict an accurate salary for every job posting on Adzuna.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we have an exciting new addition to our AI toolkit.<\/p>\n<h3>Introducing our free AI interview coach Prepper<\/h3>\n<p>For the first time, the recent advances in large language models (LLMs), alongside Adzuna&#8217;s proprietary data and expertise, have made it realistic to simulate interview questions for any job at any company, at scale.<\/p>\n<p>Our new cutting edge tool <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/prepper\">Prepper<\/a> allows jobseekers to prepare for job interviews by generating questions likely to be asked based on information from the job ad, as well as coaching them on how best to respond, changing the game for interviewees.<\/p>\n<p>Users simply paste the job title, job description and company name into Prepper, and the tool then generates the five interview questions most likely to be asked. Users can input draft answers to practice their responses. Adzuna\u2019s AI coach will then provide feedback scores and detailed suggestions on how to improve, helping give candidates an edge over their competition. Users can also ask Prepper to generate model answers, without any input, to help them prepare for their interview.<\/p>\n<p>It follows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jdp.com\/blog\/how-to-prepare-for-interviews-2020\/\">research<\/a> revealing 93% of jobseekers experience pre-interview anxiety, with the top job interview worry being not being able to answer a difficult question (cited by 41% of respondents).<\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/11\/svg\/1f4a1.svg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/prepper\">Try our free AI interview coach Prepper here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45.jpg\" alt=\"Three mobile views of Prepper AI interview tool.\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-45-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>The inside scoop on how Prepper works<\/h3>\n<p>Based on over 10 years of labor market data, the AI tool is built on a large language model (LLM), using in-built prompts to generate and review interview questions and model answers. The tool also assesses and scores candidates\u2019 answers, reviewing each response against the skills and requirements being sought by the employer and providing bespoke feedback to help candidates improve.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have also created three bespoke personas based on a series of advanced system prompts. Users can test themselves on three modes &#8211; easy, hard and \u2018pirate\u2019 mode &#8211; helping them to build confidence prior to interview. For example, when tested with a Delivery Driver job posting at DoorDash, Prepper provides the following questions across each mode:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy:<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cHow do you stay organized and plan your day when working as a Dasher at DoorDash?\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hard: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHave you ever had to deal with a difficult customer while delivering an order?\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pirate: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAhoy!

Arrrr!\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Companies can also use the tool as a shortcut to prep interview questions for open roles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adzuna\u2019s mission is to use the power of technology to match people to better, more fulfilling jobs. Its unique, AI-powered tools and salary insights guide jobseekers to their next role. For employers, Adzuna\u2019s proprietary matching technology and programmatic delivery capability helps fill positions quickly by acquiring, qualifying and matching the right candidates to roles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read what our co-founder Andrew had to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>Andrew Hunter, co-founder of Adzuna, comments:<\/b> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGenerative AI has the potential to disrupt the jobs market in a positive way for jobseekers. Not everyone has the resources to pay for a career coach to help them land a job or give them advice, so we\u2019re excited to launch this new free AI interview coach allowing jobseekers to get ready for interviews without spending a dime. We\u2019ve been using the power of technology to help match jobseekers to jobs for over 10 years, and we launched Adzuna in the US in 2017. That same year, we built and launched machine learning tool ValueMyResume, empowering jobseekers to know their worth based on their resume. In 2022, we added salary estimates to our AI toolkit, using AI to predict an accurate salary for every job posting on Adzuna. Now in 2023, we\u2019re pleased to add Prepper to our list of smart AI tools helping make job search better and changing the game for interviewees.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tool is initially launching across Adzuna\u2019s US and UK sites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/prepper\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try out Prepper f<\/span><\/a>or yourself here and let us know how you get on!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/11\/svg\/1f4a1.svg\" alt=\"\" \/>\u00a0Read more<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.com\/blog\/adzuna-wins-most-used-job-search-engine-for-4th-year-in-a-row\/\">Adzuna wins most used job search engine for 4th year in a row<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at Adzuna HQ, we loving using the power of technology to match people to better, more fulfilling jobs and we&#8217;ve been doing that for over 10 years!
