    Read the shortlist

    Every answer scored with the reasoning beside it, plus the recording. You decide who goes forward.

Questions, answered.

What employers ask before sending their first AI interview.

  • What happens when I use an interview?

    Winkle copies it into your account as your own interview, with every question, follow-up rule and scoring guide. Change anything you like, then send one link to as many candidates as you want.

  • Who asks the questions?

    An AI interviewer, out loud or in writing. It asks each question in order and, when an answer is vague, asks one follow-up about what the candidate actually said.

  • How are answers scored?

    Every answer is scored against the same guide, with the reasoning written beside the score. You get the recording or the written answers too, so any score can be checked.

  • Does the AI decide who gets hired?

    No. Scores are a recommendation. A person on your team reviews every candidate and makes every decision.

  • Can candidates answer in their own language?

    The interviewer can run the interview in any of 11 languages. Pick the language when you set it up.

  • Why can't I see the questions before I sign up?

    Because candidates could too. Every question opens the moment you use an interview, and you can read, change or replace any of them before it is sent. A candidate who has read the questions in advance is reciting, not answering.
