Where to start
If you have an interview coming up, start with free AI mock interview, free AI interview practice — one session shows you what the feedback looks like. If you are still applying, the ATS resume builder and the LinkedIn checklist come first, followed by the ATS resume checker and resume templates by family. The comparison of free AI interview tools is for anyone deciding what to spend time on.
What each tool is for
A job search has three stages: getting noticed, getting the interview and doing well in it. The tools below map to those stages, and each one stands on its own, so you can use only the one you need today.
The free interview practice plan
Run a spoken mock interview with an AI interviewer that follows up on what you said and scores each answer for relevance, depth and clarity. It is the quickest way to find out which of your stories hold up under a second question, and the feedback report tells you what to change before you try again.
Free AI interview practice online
Voice-based practice with real-time follow-ups and dimensional scoring. Free account, no card.
AI interview helper
Pick a role and generate the questions that role is likely to face, then practise them and have the answers scored. Use it when you know the job but not yet what you will be asked, or when you want to drill one weak area instead of running a full session.
Best free AI interview tools
A straight comparison of the kinds of free AI interview tools on offer and what their free tiers actually include. Read it before you spend an evening on a tool, so you know what is free, what is limited and what is a trial for a paid plan.
Free ATS resume builder
Build a resume from parser-safe templates and check how an applicant tracking system reads it before you apply. It exports to PDF or Word, so you can send the same file the check was run against.
LinkedIn profile checklist
A six-part checklist for the profile recruiters see before they open your resume: headline, About section, skills, experience and where your keywords sit. It is a checklist you work through yourself, not an automated rewrite.
