About this interview

A roleplay interview on Offer Negotiation, pitched at the medium level. A voice AI interviewer leads the conversation, adapts its questions to your answers, keeps you on topic, and afterward gives you honest, specific feedback on where you were strong and where to improve. Expect roughly 30 minutes.

What you'll be assessed on

Respond to a first offer without accepting on the spot or anchoring against yourself
Counter-anchor with a justified range grounded in market data
Trade across the package (base, sign-on, review date) instead of haggling one number
Hold position under budget-constraint pressure and confirm final terms explicitly

What to expect

Practice responding to a real written job offer from a recruiter — before you say yes or no.

Work through pressure, package trade-offs, and timeline constraints live, by voice.

The goal isn't just a bigger number: leave with a stronger combined package and clearly confirmed final terms.
