Interview Buddy for desktop

Real-time answers during your interview, in an overlay that stays invisible to screen sharing. Built from your resume and the role you are interviewing for.

macOS build is signed and notarized by Apple. Universal: Apple Silicon and Intel.

Windows users: our certificate is being issued, so Windows may show a "Windows protected your PC" notice on first launch. Click More info then Run anyway. The warning disappears once the certificate is active.

Mac users: allow Screen Recording (required to hear the interviewer)

Without it the app opens but hears nothing. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording, turn on Interview Buddy, then fully quit and reopen the app.

Interview Buddy only listens to the call's audio, never your microphone or screen.

After you install it

  1. 1. Open Interview Buddy here and click Generate pairing token.
  2. 2. Paste the token into the app the first time it opens.
  3. 3. On Mac: allow Screen Recording (see the note above) — otherwise the app can't hear the interviewer.
  4. 4. Choose the interview you prepared for, then press Test my setup and play any video to confirm it hears your computer.
  5. 5. On interview day, press Start listening before the call begins.

Invisible to screen sharing

Hidden from Zoom, Meet, Teams and other capture tools.

Hears the interviewer
