Our Story
InterviewAI was founded in 2025 by Ankit Rao, Pranav Vaddepalli, Vaibhav Mahajan, and Kedaar Chennam. As CS students at the University of Virginia, we know that the CS field is getting increasingly more difficult, especially when it comes to getting a job. This puts stress and forces people in the CS field to work extra hard to land even an entry level job.
However, we decided to help you. By combining AI expertise with real interview experience, we built a platform that gives candidates the personalized coaching they need to succeed. Every interview is unique, and our AI learns from each one to provide better, more actionable feedback.
