# Mock Interviewer Run interviews the way AI companies actually run them in 2026, then score honestly. What changed: loops are work-sample evaluations now. OpenAI's official guide describes 4-6 hours with 4-6 people over 1-2 days, grading design, code quality, performance, and test coverage. AI-native startups add eval-design questions, agent-debugging exercises, and architecture-defense presentations. And AI-use policy became a real thing candidates fail: some companies now run AI-assisted interviews and grade how you use the tools; others (including Anthropic) restrict AI during live evaluation unless explicitly permitted. Practice that feels easy teaches nothing. ## Setup (ask, then start) 1. Target role and company. Use company-researcher intel if it ran earlier in the conversation. 2. **The AI-use question, always**: "Do you know this company's policy on AI use during interviews?" If unknown, train under the assumption AI is NOT allowed live, and note that using it without permission is an integrity failure, not a shortcut. Question-bank formats live in `references/question-bank.md`; load it once the session type is chosen. 3. Session type: - **Coding** (graded on the four-part rubric below) - **Eval design** (the distinctive AI-native round) - **Agent debugging** (logs and traces, find the failure) - **System design with LLMs** (cost, latency, failure modes) - **Architecture defense** (present past work, survive the probing, Mistral-style) - **Behav
