AI Interview for UI/UX Designers

Design portfolios show outcomes but hide process: research rigor, trade-offs, and how a designer responds to critique. IntervAI screens every UI/UX applicant with structured AI interviews on discovery, accessibility, and design reasoning, scored consistently. Teams get a shortlist of designers who think in problems and users, not just pixels.

Hiring challenges for ui/ux designer roles

Why screening for this role is hard with resumes and unstructured phone screens.

Portfolios show output, not process

Polished case studies rarely reveal the research, constraints, and decisions behind the final screens.

Hard to gauge collaboration

How a designer works with engineers and handles critique is critical but invisible on a portfolio site.

Accessibility often an afterthought

Many portfolios skip accessibility, and weak inclusive-design habits surface only after hiring.
