FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I've never had a real interview. Is aurate too advanced for me?

Not at all. The free tier is specifically designed for first-time interviewees. You get two 5-minute sessions that test your fundamentals — how you structure answers, handle pressure, and respond to follow-up questions. It is the safest place to make your first mistakes.

Do I need to pay to use aurate?

No. You get 2 free sessions via Google sign-in with no payment required. Each session is a 5-minute behavioral interview followed by a Vibe Score and one piece of direct feedback. Paid tiers are available when you want longer, deeper sessions.

How is this different from practicing with a friend?

Friends cannot simulate the pressure of a real interviewer. They will not challenge weak answers, notice your filler words, or give you a structured performance breakdown. aurate does all of this consistently, every session, with no social awkwardness.
