The concern isn't whether AI can interview candidates. It can, and it does — millions of times a month across the market. The concern is whether it does so more fairly than the human process it replaces. The honest answer is: only if you design for it.
The three-rubric rule
- Every question maps to a competency, not a personality trait
- Every score is explainable in plain English on the report
- Every candidate can request the transcript and rating rationale
If your AI can't explain why it scored someone a 6, it shouldn't be scoring.
