We won't miss what you say.

Where something is missing, we ask one more question on the spot.

✓ What has come across

A short answer is never held against you. We simply ask, one at a time, about the parts that have not been put into words yet.

How it works

Nothing to prepare. It starts the moment you open the URL you received.

  1. 01

    Open the URL

    Just open the link from the company in your browser. No install and no account needed.

    Answer by voice or by typing. You can finish the whole interview even without a microphone.

  3. 03

    Done in about 15 minutes

    You can simply close the page when it ends. We hand you a copy of what you said right away.

In between, the only thing you do is answer the questions.

We only ask about what is missing

If you have already covered everything, we do not ask any further.

S, T, A and R are just these four

The letters look technical, but they only mean: when, what was needed, what you did, and how it turned out. We only look at whether all four are there in one answer.

  1. Situation

    When, and in what setting

  2. Task

    What was being asked of you there

  3. Action

    What you yourself did

  4. Result

    How it turned out

An example answer

I was put in charge of building a stock control system.
There were 12 shortages a month, and I was expected to bring that down.
I rebuilt the stocktaking procedure and moved it from monthly to weekly.
Shortages came down to 2 a month.

When something is missing from your story

  • Situation: covered
  • Task: covered
  • Action: missing
  • Result: missing

We ask only about the missing A and R

When you have covered everything

  • Situation: covered
  • Task: covered
  • Action: covered
  • Result: covered

We stop here and move on to the next question

Being asked again does not mean your answer was poor. It means part of your story has not been put into words yet, and as it stands it would not reach the hiring team. Every extra question adds one more thing they get to hear about you.

This is when we ask a little more

  • When there seems to be more to your story

    We ask one more, so it does not stop at the good part.

  • When the part you worked hardest on has not been said yet

    We ask about just that. What lands is always the concrete moment.

  • When the story has not reached the outcome

    We ask what happened next. A story that gets told to the end carries further.

A person makes the hiring decision

KIKITASU only asks the questions and organises what you said.

Only the hiring team at the company you applied to can see the record. It is never shared with other companies.

How much less there is for you to do

It is still a first-round interview. What changes is what you have to arrange, and how long you wait.

Common concerns

Am I being asked for more detail because my answer was poor?

No. This is the normal way the interview runs. We keep asking until we have when, in what situation, what you did and how it turned out — so a good answer often draws more follow-ups, not fewer.

Will I be at a disadvantage if I am not a smooth speaker?

Only what you say is used in the assessment. Volume, pace, hesitation, expression and appearance are not. You are welcome to start a sentence again or take time to think.

Does the AI decide whether I pass?

No. What the AI produces is your answers organised, plus a draft assessment (scores and a summary). The hiring team reads that and makes the decision.

There is a question I would rather not answer.

You can simply say that you would rather not answer, and the interview moves to the next question. If there is something you want to tell us in advance, contact your recruiting contact directly.

Who can see the recording?

The hiring team at the company you applied to reviews it for this hiring process. Audio is deleted after 90 days and text after 365 days. You can request deletion at any time from the data handling link at the bottom of the screen.

Can I apply from this page?

This page explains KIKITASU. Applications are handled by each company, and you take the interview from the URL sent to you by the company you applied to. If you do not have a URL yet, please contact that company.

Does the demo interview affect a real selection process?

No. The demo runs on a practice posting, and nothing from it is passed to any company's selection. You can take it as many times as you like.

DEMO

Try the whole flow before the real one

Overview → documents → consent → device check → interview → finish: you can go through all of it. The demo is for practice, so nothing from it goes into a selection process.
