Interview History & Progress Tracking

What is the Interview History page and when should you use it?

The Interview History page is your personal dashboard for all past interview sessions. Use it to review your performance over time, replay recordings, download coaching reports, and identify patterns in your improvement. Visit this page after every session to track your progress, or before a real interview to revisit your strongest and weakest areas.

Quick Steps

1. Navigate to Interview History from the Interview Simulator header or the main menu.
2. Browse your sessions — sorted by date with newest first.
3. Review session cards showing job title, score, language, and difficulty.
4. Replay recordings by clicking the play button (if recording was enabled).
5. Download coaching reports by clicking the PDF icon.
6. Expand any session to view full details — transcript, assessments, and evaluations.
7. Use the filter to hide short interviews and focus on meaningful sessions.

How do I access my interview history?

You can reach the Interview History page from:

• Interview Simulator header — Click the "History" link in the top navigation bar while in the simulator
• Homepage — The Interview Simulator section mentions your history for tracking progress
• Direct URL — Navigate to /interview/history in your browser

What does each session card show?

Each session in your history is displayed as a card with key information at a glance:

Left side:

• Date — When the interview took place
• Job title — Extracted from the job description you provided

Badges:

• Language — The language you selected for the session
• Difficulty — Junior, Intermediate, or Senior
• Questions answered — How many questions were covered
• CV used — Which SkilOre CV was selected

Right side:

• Score — Your overall score out of 10, color-coded (green for 7+, yellow for 4–6.9, red for below 4)
• Action buttons — Replay recording, download PDF report, expand details, delete session

How do I replay a recording?

If you enabled recording before the session, a play button appears on the session card. Click it to open an inline audio player that lets you listen to the full interview. This is useful for:

• Hearing how your answers actually sounded (vs. how you thought they sounded)
• Identifying filler words, long pauses, or unclear phrasing
• Comparing your delivery across multiple sessions

Note: Recording is only available if you enabled it in the lobby settings before starting the session. Sessions without recording enabled will not have a play button.

How do I download a coaching report?

Click the PDF icon on any session card to download the coaching report. The report is generated automatically after each qualifying session and stored permanently. You can download it as many times as needed.

If a session was too short (fewer than 4 exchanges or under 60 seconds), no report is generated and the PDF icon will not appear.

How do I view full session details?

Click the expand button on any session card to reveal the complete session data:

Transcript

A scrollable list of the full conversation between you and the AI interviewer. Each entry shows:

• Speaker — Interviewer or Candidate
• Text — What was said
• Timestamp — When it occurred in the session

Assessments

The per-question assessment data showing:

• Topic — What the question was about
• Category — Technical, Behavioral, Communication, or CV Consistency
• Score — The score for that specific answer
• Notes — Brief feedback on the answer
• STAR method — Whether you used the Situation-Task-Action-Result framework

Jury Evaluations

Detailed evaluation data from the AI jury system that assessed your answers in real time during the interview. This provides deeper insight into how each answer was scored and why.

How do I filter my sessions?

A checkbox at the top of the history page lets you hide short interviews. This filter is enabled by default, showing only sessions with meaningful content. The session counter shows "X of Y sessions" so you always know how many total sessions exist.

Disable the filter to see all sessions, including short ones where tokens were refunded.

How do I track my progress over time?

The most effective way to track improvement:

1. Compare scores across sessions for the same role — Run multiple practice interviews with the same job description and watch your score trend upward
2. Check category scores — Are you improving in Technical but plateauing in Communication? The category breakdown reveals which areas are responding to practice
3. Review recommended topics — If the same topics keep appearing in your "areas to improve," they need more focused attention
4. Listen to recordings back-to-back — Compare your delivery from your first session to your most recent one

Tip: Run at least 3 sessions for the same role before your real interview. Most candidates see their biggest improvement between sessions 1 and 2, with refinement in session 3.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long are my sessions stored?

Your interview sessions, transcripts, assessments, and coaching reports are stored indefinitely in your account. Recordings are also retained but may be subject to storage lifecycle policies in the future.

Can I delete a session from my history?

Yes. Each session card has a delete button. When you click it, a confirmation dialog appears — once you confirm, the session is permanently removed, along with its coaching report and any recordings. This can't be undone, so only delete a session if you're sure you no longer need it.

Why does a session show 0 questions?

A session with 0 questions means it ended before any questions were asked — for example, if you started and immediately ended the interview, or if a connection issue prevented the conversation from beginning. Tokens are refunded for these sessions.

Can I compare two sessions side by side?

The current interface shows one expanded session at a time. To compare, open two browser tabs — one for each session — and review them in parallel. Side-by-side comparison may be added in a future update.

What does the score color coding mean?

• Green (7.0–10.0) — Strong performance, you're well-prepared in this area
• Yellow (4.0–6.9) — Adequate but needs work before a real interview
• Red (below 4.0) — Significant gaps that could cost you the job — prioritize these areas
