Question 1

What is InterviewIQ?

Accepted Answer

InterviewIQ is a Chrome extension that stores your interview prep and surfaces it during interviews. You write and save answers to common questions and when those questions come up, your prep appears instantly on screen. For unexpected questions, AI generates bullet-point reminders (not full scripts) based on your resume. Your prep first, AI second.

Question 2

Is this cheating?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! InterviewIQ is designed to help you prepare for interviews, not to give you an unfair advantage. It's a tool to help you remember your answers and stay on track during the interview.  You're still thinking and speaking for yourself. Think of it like having organized note cards that appear at the perfect moment.

Question 3

How does InterviewIQ work?

Accepted Answer

Simply install the Chrome extension and InterviewIQ will seamlessly integrate with Google Meet and Microsoft Teams. It uses captions to detect interview questions and provides instant, AI-generated responses based on your uploaded resume and customized Q&A prep, all without switching tabs.

Question 4

Is the real time interview assistant free?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

What happens when i have to share my screen?

Accepted Answer

You can close the answer popup and the extension will still work, if the interview needs to see your screen, you can prevent your meeting tab from being shared by picking a different tab to share. The extension will still work in the background. We do advice you mention your use of InterviewIQ to the interviewer as we prioritize transparency and preparation.

Question 6

Can I use InterviewIQ for any type of interview?

Accepted Answer

Perfect for behavioral and situational questions across all industries. Your live interview tool handles questions about your experience, problem-solving, and workplace scenarios. Real-time interview help works best for conversation-based interviews rather than technical coding challenges.

Question 7

What happens if a question is asked, but there's no saved answer?

Accepted Answer

AI will generate 3-4 bullet-point reminders pulled from your resume: key projects, metrics, or relevant experience. These are prompts to jog your memory, not full sentences to read. You still craft the answer in your own words.

Question 8

The answers aren't showing up, no matter the question. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

First, ensure Google Meet or Microsoft Teams captions are turned on. If captions are already on, toggle them off and back on. Still not working? Make sure the meeting tab is not a group of tabs. Still not working? Contact us at founder@getinterviewiq.com
