Comparison

A weak AI interviewer vs a good one

Comparison of a weak and a good AI interviewer: scripted questions and free text only, against real follow-ups and structured output.
Keep it open while you watch a few test interviews from any AI moderator.

A side-by-side list of the habits that mark a weak AI interviewer and a good one. Use it as a quick test when you pilot an AI moderator: run a few practice interviews and note which column each behaviour falls in. Koji was built around the right-hand column, from adaptive follow-ups to structured answers for every question type.
