Recorded video screen · Finance & consulting
Rehearse the interview where nobody answers back.
Thirty seconds to think, one take, nobody on the other end — then a graded breakdown of what you said.
Who are you interviewing with?
Your video never leaves your device.
Your video is recorded in your browser and stays there. The audio is sent once to be turned into text, then dropped. The text — the words — is what gets graded. We never see your face.
Your first 2 mocks come back graded free — no account, no card. The $49 licence for 20 more is not on sale yet. The free mocks work right now, and $49 is what it will cost when it opens.
Answers are graded by an AI against a published rubric, not by a person. NailedIt.ai is not affiliated with HireVue or with any employer.
What gets graded
Five dimensions on a finance and consulting rubric, plus the one nobody else measures.
Five rubric dimensions
Structure, commercial awareness, ownership, specificity, concision — each scored out of 20 against a rubric printed on the page, not against other users.
Timed delivery
Did you use the prep window. Did the timer cut you off mid-sentence. Did you leave twenty seconds of dead air. These are the real failure modes in a one-way screen, and nothing else grades them.
Your two weakest answers, re-cut
Rewritten from your own material — your example, your numbers — then a drill on the dimension you scored lowest, and your score movement across attempts.
A sample scorecard
This is the whole thing a mock hands back. Five scored dimensions, the delivery numbers measured in your browser, your weakest answers re-cut from your own words, and one drill. Nothing here is a prediction about a hiring decision.
Example — invented for this page. Not a real candidate, not a real run, and not anybody's data.
Three of your six answers stopped before they reached a result.
58/100
NearlyScored against the rubric below. Not compared to other users, and not a prediction about any hiring decision. Graded by an AI model (claude-sonnet-4-6) from the transcript only — no human read it.
The rubric
Three answers set up a situation and stopped before the result.
Values language throughout; no cost, client, deadline or trade-off named.
First-person decisions are clear in four of six answers.
One number across the whole run, and it was a date.
Little repetition; the question is not restated before answering.
Timed delivery
Measured in your browser while you recorded, not judged by a model. This is what a hard timer does to an answer, and it is the part of a one-way screen that catches people out.
Prep window used
26s of 30s
You used the prep window on every question.
Time used of the cap
1:52 of 3:00
Comfortably inside the cap.
Dead air at the end
7s on Q4
Silence between your last word and the end of the take.
Takes cut off by the timer
1 of 6
The timer stopped these takes. On a real screen that is what the reviewer sees.
What to change, and what to say instead
Question 4 · Structure
Describe a time you had to change your approach part-way through a piece of work.
You said “so we ended up rebuilding the model” and then moved to the next point. The answer never says what the rebuilt model produced, so a reviewer has your process and no outcome.
Your material, re-cut
The forecast we inherited double-counted a revenue line, and I found it in the second week. I rebuilt the model from the source ledger rather than patching it, and I flagged the gap to the team lead the same afternoon. The rebuilt version came back [the result here — you have it, we do not], and it is the one the team used for the rest of the engagement.
Anything in square brackets is a gap we could not fill. You did not say it, so we did not make it up — put your own number or name in before you use this.
Do one thing next: Specificity
Retake question 4 in forty seconds and open with the number the rebuilt model changed, before any of the setup.
What this score is not
- Your face, your eye contact, your posture and your background. We never see them — the video stayed in your browser.
- Your accent, your voice and your tone. We grade the words the transcript captured, not the sound.
- Whether any employer would hire you. Nothing here is a prediction about a hiring decision.
- Not affiliated with any employer or with any interview vendor. The questions were built from the competencies each employer publishes.
The example above is written, not screenshotted, so a screen reader reads it in the same order a sighted reader sees it. A real one is built from your own transcript and your own timings.
Practise for the employer that emailed you
Each page is built from the competencies that employer publishes about itself, with the source and the date we read it printed next to every claim. Not the real questions — nobody publishes those, and anyone who says they have them is guessing.
Investment banking
JPMorganChase
Publishes a recorded video interview stage. Does not name a vendor.
Investment banking
Goldman Sachs
Names HireVue as its approved interview platform, in its own words.
Investment banking
Morgan Stanley
Publishes video-interview guidance. Does not name a vendor.
Asset management
BlackRock
Calls it a pre-interview assessment. Publishes its own prep timing.
Professional services
Deloitte
Calls it a job simulation, with recorded video responses in it.
Professional services
EY
Calls it a prerecorded video interview.
Consulting
McKinsey & Company
No recorded video stage. The PEI is live, so this one practises the answers, not the format.
Retail
Target
Names HireVue, and publishes sample questions and the competency each one tests.
What it costs
Stated here, before you start, rather than discovered at the end.
Free, and staying free
$0
The simulator itself — the question read aloud, the 30-second prep countdown, the hard timer that stops you, 5-6 questions, one take each — unlimited, no account, no card. Every employer page and every question set is free to read and always will be.
Plus your first 2 mocks graded in full. Two rather than one on purpose: the thing worth paying for is that your score moves between attempts, and you should be able to see whether that is true for you before you pay to find out.

Read the full pricingBefore you record
The thing candidates describe as the hard part is not the questions. It is talking to a lens with nobody on the other end. These answer the format questions first.
- What a HireVue interview actually isThe one-way, asynchronous video screen, described plainly, from HireVue's own published material.
- The questions, and where they come fromBehavioural and competency prompts, each traced to the employer or vendor material it was built from.
- How long do you get to answerPrep window, answer cap, and what happens when the timer runs out mid-sentence.
- Does HireVue record your screenWhat is published about what gets recorded, and what is not published at all.
- Everything else about the formatThe hub: every format page and every employer page in one place.
What this is not
Not affiliated with HireVue, and not affiliated with any employer. We are not a partner, a reseller or a vendor of theirs. Employer names appear here because those employers publish descriptions of their own hiring process, and we cite them.
Not the real questions. No employer publishes the question text from its live video screen, so nobody has it, including us. What we publish is built from the competencies each employer states it assesses, and every page shows the source and the date we read it.
Not something to use during a live assessment. Four of these eight employers publish something on candidates using AI; for the other four we could find nothing, and their pages say that rather than guessing. Where a policy exists it is quoted on that employer's page here with the link, and every one of them draws the line at the assessment itself. Two of them — Deloitte and McKinsey — go further and say in their own words that using AI to prepare beforehand is fine. This is built for the preparation side of that line. Nothing about it works during a real interview.
Not a way to improve the odds of being hired. We have no visibility into any employer's decision and no influence over it. The claim is narrower and it is the honest one: you will have sat through the format once, been stopped by the timer once, and read what a rubric says about your own words — before it counts.
Not a person. The grader is an AI reading your transcript. It is labelled as one on every screen it appears on, and the rubric it grades against is printed where you can read it.

before it counts.
