AI interviews don't make sense when it's each company making the candidate do separate interviews, coz the company isn't spending any human time (no skin in the game) and can easily abuse candidates' time. I think it'd make sense tho if there were shared interviews, e.g. candidate does just one interview for all backend SWE roles (or all SWE roles that use AWS EC2 and Dynamo, or whatever further specialization)... any number of companies should then be able to access the AI insights of that interview, together with other candidates' interviews for that same role.

Then hiring manager can still bring the 2-5 best-fitting candidates onsite for 1-3 human-led interviews (hopefully fewer than what were needed before). The benefit of the AI interview would be to give way more signal than a resume can, making matching more efficient for both sides.

Some industries already do this. It's best to learn from other industries in this case.

Engineers need to get a license. (IE, you need a license to design a dam.)

For doctors, not only do they need to get a license, in medical school, they go through a matching process that's very efficient: https://med.stanford.edu/news/insights/2024/03/match-day-med...

realistically, they are going to have a much higher percentage of north korean IT workers, because they will spend the time to game the AI interview to get hired
