Frequently asked
questions

Does CodeSignal’s AI Interviewer decide who gets hired?

No. The AI runs a short, structured interview and produces an in-depth skills report + full transcript with rationale. Humans review and make the decision—always.

How long is a typical AI phone screen?

Typically 15 minutes, but fully configurable to your needs. You can set time limits per role (e.g., 10–20 minutes) to balance candidate effort with the signal you need.

How does CodeSignal align AI scoring with our reviewers?

We run a pilot to calibrate the AI agent: your reviewers score the same interviews, our I-O team compares and tunes, then we lock the rubric for consistent scoring.

How does CodeSignal prevent bias in AI interviews?

Interviews use the same rubric and scale for every candidate and generate transparent rationale. We support adverse impact study, maintain logs for audit, and follow IO-validated, job-related criteria. You keep human-in-the-loop controls at every step.

Can the AI go off-script or hallucinate during interviews?

Agents are bound to your rubric and context, with guardrails (input sanitization, context isolation, rate-limits) and human oversight. Follow-ups stay within the competencies you define; transcripts let you see exactly what was asked.

Is CodeSignal AI Interviewer customizable or template-based?

Both. Most teams start custom (your competencies, tone, and follow-ups) and can use role-specialized Interview Agents as a starting point. We map your competencies to a clear scale and keep your language.

Where does an AI interview fit in the hiring process?

Use it as the first pass after applying for volume roles, as a customer-facing screen before role-plays, for Support/Ops scenarios, or as an engineering behavioral screen before technical rounds. It delivers a decision-ready shortlist.
