Because interviews are a two-way street. If you can't commit the time to interview and want to offload it to AI, why shouldn't I also have AI take the interview for me? Or you do you think my time is worth less than yours?

This is pretty gross, honestly. I recommend some reflection.

Your time is definitely not worth less than the company you are applying to. And I 100% agree interviews should not be offloaded to AI.

This is a screening interview, and the AI component simply assists the hiring manager, it does not automate the outcome in any way.

But we don't know if hiring person spends quality time on looking at all these recordings and transcripts, or just do some superficial keyword matching thing or AI signal.

I agree with you on this one sure, but at the same time you wouldn't know if the hiring manager would be spending time looking over your CV if you send it. I don't see where's the fault of the app.

It takes 5 sec for me to send CV, but here you ask for 20 mins commitment from my side.

So you wouldn't be opposed to me using an AI to solve your "challenge" or whatever it is? After all, this is just a screening interview, the AI component is simply assisting me.

Absolutely, you can solve the challenge in any way you like. You can use AI, StackOverflow, or a friend you have in the room.
