The interview before the interview.

Paste the job description. BeforeInterview researches the company, maps every round you'll face, then runs the call with you — a talking interviewer, in real time — and hands back a scored debrief built only from what you actually said.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute to the first question.

No scheduling, no coach to book, no deck of generic questions. Bring the role; we bring the interviewer.

  1. Tell us the role

    Paste the job description and, if you have it, the company's site. We read the posting, research the company and map the rounds — recruiter screen to final — with the questions each one tends to ask.

  2. Take the call

    Join a video room that looks like the real thing. Your interviewer speaks, listens and follows up on what you said. Camera optional — and never uploaded. Choose Real to run straight through, or Coach to get notes and retries.

  3. Get the debrief

    Every rubric item scored 1–5 with the exact words behind the score. Talk time, pace and filler count. And a stronger version of each answer that uses only what you said — gaps marked for you to fill.

Inside BeforeInterview

Everything a good coach would have prepared — ready before you've finished your coffee.

Below is what you'd see for one example role: a senior product manager at Northlane, a payouts company we made up for the tour.

Prep

Walk in knowing the company better than the last candidate did.

We search for the company, read its pages and the news, and compress it into a brief you can skim in two minutes: what they sell, where they're based, the latest news and the points worth raising.

  • Funding stage, headcount, where they're based and how they make money
  • Recent news with dates, so you never cite something stale
  • Numbered talking points mapped to the role

Talking points
  1. Instant payouts are the growth bet — ask how reliability is measured and who owns it.
  2. Marketplaces churn after onboarding; bring a view on activation.
  3. Dublin means UK regulation — mention any regulated-market work you've done.
Interview style: structured and metric-heavy. Expect to be asked to size things and to defend a prioritisation call.
Questions

Every round mapped. Every question tagged.

Companies interview in patterns. We lay out the rounds you're likely to face — who's across the table, how long it runs, what it's really testing — and the questions it tends to ask.

  • Tagged by the competency it tests and how hard it is
  • A Reported mark when real candidates have mentioned it
  • What a good answer looks like, in one line

Practice

Take the call before you take the call.

Choose a round, a mode and a length. Your interviewer joins with a face and a voice, asks what that round asks, listens, and follows up on your actual answer — not a script.

  • Real: no interruptions from first question to last
  • Coach: a short note after every answer, with the option to retry
  • Leave by accident? Your interviewer waits; rejoin where you were

Debrief

A score you can argue with — because every point shows its evidence.

No vague "good energy". Each rubric item is scored against the role, with the verbatim line that earned it. Then the delivery numbers, and a stronger version of every answer that never invents a fact for you.

  • Competency scores 1–5 with the quote behind each
  • Talk time, pace in words per minute, and your filler count
  • Stronger versions with [brackets] where a real detail belongs

Clear structure, thin on numbers.
You answered every question in order and stayed on topic. Three of five answers had no measurable outcome.
Execution weight 40% 3/5
A real product, shipped end to end — but the outcome stayed qualitative.
“…so we shipped the new payout flow and it went pretty well, the team was happy with it and support was quieter after.”
Talk time58%You vs. interviewer. Fine for this round.
Pace171wpm130–160 is ideal. Slow down on the numbers.
Filler words×1“um” — once, at the start. Good.
A stronger version

I led the rebuild of our payout flow from [month] to [month]. We cut failed payouts from [X%] to [Y%] within [N] weeks, and support tickets about payouts dropped by [number]. The team was happier because the on-call load fell with it.

Built only from what you said. Fill in the brackets with your real details.
Two ways to run it

Rehearse with a safety net, or without one.

Real mode

Straight through.

The closest thing to the actual call. No pauses, no hints, no second takes — just the questions, the follow-ups and the clock. Everything lands in the debrief afterwards.

Coach mode

Stop, fix, go again.

After each answer the coach leaves a short, specific note — usually a sizing or structure prompt — and you can take that question again. The retry is what gets scored; the first attempt stays in the transcript so you can see the jump.

Pricing

Start free. Pay for call time, nothing else.

The research, the questions and the debrief don't cost anything. The only meter runs while you're actually on a call.
