Question 1

Does Reqa fully replace the human interview?

Accepted Answer

No — and that's by design. Reqa is a technical pre-screening tool. It filters candidates upfront so your Tech Leads only spend time on profiles that have demonstrated the expected level. You receive a full analysis report to inform your final decision, which remains 100% human.

Question 2

What about cheating with ChatGPT or other AI?

Accepted Answer

Let's be honest: no solution can guarantee perfect detection of AI use by a candidate. Alex asks follow-up questions, requests concrete examples, and evaluates the consistency of reasoning — which makes cheating harder than a simple MCQ. We are actively developing additional detection mechanisms, but we prefer transparency over false promises. The final report gives you all the elements to judge for yourself.

Question 3

How do candidates perceive the tool?

Accepted Answer

Feedback has been very positive. Transparency is total: Alex introduces itself as an AI from the outset. Developers appreciate the scheduling flexibility (they take the interview when they want), the absence of pressure from human judgement, and not having to sit through generic MCQs that don't reflect their real expertise.

Question 4

What types of roles can Alex assess?

Accepted Answer

Frontend, backend, fullstack developers, DevOps, Data Engineers, Product Owners, Tech Project Managers... Alex adapts to your job description. Create a custom template with your criteria or start from one of our ready-to-use models.

Question 5

How long does it take to launch an interview?

Accepted Answer

Under 5 minutes. Choose a template, fill in the candidate's details, and you're done. Alex sends the invitation automatically. The candidate takes the interview at their own pace, and you receive the report as soon as they finish.

Question 6

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Reqa is designed to be GDPR-compliant. Data is hosted in Europe, encrypted at rest and in transit. Interview transcripts can be deleted on request.
