Choose for the way you want to practise

A useful warmup gives you a question, time to answer and something to improve. Google’s original Interview Warmup introduced spoken practice and answer insights. You can preserve that habit with several approaches; choose whether you need self-review, delivery feedback or a job-focused conversation.

Phone recorder: a free starting point

A recorder you already have lets you practise without a subscription. Read a question, record your answer and listen for the main point, your action and the result. You will need to review the content yourself or ask someone for feedback.

Yoodli: communication roleplay

Yoodli offers roleplay and recorded speaking feedback. Consider it when delivery and communication are your main practice goals. Check the current individual session limits and data settings.

Bossed: move from a warmup to a job-specific conversation

Bossed connects your practice to the application you care about. Your CV and job description guide a spoken mock interview, with follow-ups based on your answers and feedback afterwards. Choose it when you want help moving beyond an opening answer and into the conversation that follows.

Start with the free quiz and preparation plan. Spoken mock interviews require a paid plan.

What to check before you choose

  • Practice format: spoken conversation, recorded video or written answers.
  • Feedback: clear guidance you can use in your next attempt.
  • Price: included sessions, renewal terms and any minimum commitment.
  • Privacy: how the provider handles your recordings, transcripts and CV.
