Get ready for your Ribbon interview - Ribbon Help Center

Your Ribbon interview is a conversation with an AI interviewer. You’ll answer questions aloud, much like a phone call. Here’s how to get ready.

Before you begin

Find a quiet, private space where you can speak comfortably. For the best experience, we recommend:

Using a desktop or laptop
Allowing microphone access and, if video is required, camera access
Closing unnecessary tabs and applications
Connecting to reliable Wi-Fi or a wired network
Turning off any VPN or Data Saver settings
Keeping your device connected to power

Follow the on-screen instructions to check your sound and equipment before you begin.

During the interview

Listen to each question and answer in your own words. Take your time and finish your answer before moving on. There’s no AI avatar on screen. If the hiring team requires video, you’ll see your own camera feed while speaking with the AI interviewer.

How long will it take?

Check the estimated duration shown before you begin, and allow time to finish without interruptions. The length may vary depending on your answers. For a fuller overview, see Your Ribbon interview: what to expect.
