Is your organization concerned about job candidates “cheating” on interviews with AI? Some hiring executives are worried that AI could give an unqualified candidate an unfair advantage over a qualified candidate during virtual interviews.
That’s where learning how to “Read The Zoom” can help you separate “the prospects from the suspects.”
LEVERAGE THESE 5 NONVERBAL STRATEGIES TO DETECT AI-GENERATED ANSWERS:
1) First, get a baseline for their normal nonverbals when you start the virtual interview. It’s unlikely a candidate will rely on AI to answer the “How are you doing?” social ice breakers when you begin the session. Notice if there is a shift away from their baseline nonverbals when they are answering interview questions.
2) Look for eye movements that can show up when people are reading their answers.
3)?Listen for intonation. People usually have less variation in their vocal tones when they are reading. Notice the rhythm, too. Does it sound like they are talking or reading to you?
4)?Observe whether they are using their hands as they talk. Most people keep their hands fairly still when they are reading, but naturally use their hands to accentuate points when they are talking with confidence and comfort.
5)?Ask some unexpected questions that demand experiential stories. Does their story flow? Do they give details or just generalities? How natural is their delivery?
What other ways could you use to detect whether someone is using AI to answer questions? Do you think it’s “cheating” for applicants to use AI in a job interview?

Fascinating. I hadn't thought of a candidate using AI in this manner. Thanks for the heads up on this.

1 个月I think this is an excellent list. And I'd be surprised if there wasn't an AI tool for calls where you can actually tell if things are AI generated. But maybe that's down the road. ?? I really think interviewers need to do a better job with the last recommendation which is to mix things up. You can have the same context or desired information gleaned but switch it up.
