Transcribe job interviews

After five interviews memories blur. With a transcript you compare actual answers, not impressions: search "experience with", find what each one said, and share the text with the people deciding with you.

How it works, step by step

  1. Ask the candidate for consent at the start ("we record to re-listen to answers, the file is deleted afterwards") and record with your phone, or with Teams/Zoom/Meet recording if the interview is online.
  2. Upload the file to trascrivo.com right after the interview and pick the language.
  3. Press Transcribe and download the TXT. Highlight the answers to key questions and add your notes: timestamps take you back to the passage to re-listen.

Comparing candidates on the same questions

If you ask everyone the same five questions, comparison on text is immediate: put the answers side by side and assess concreteness, examples, consistency. Verbatim quotes in the feedback to the team weigh more than "seemed well prepared".

Rules and respect

Recording and transcript are the candidate's personal data: inform first, keep the text only for the length of the selection and delete it after. TraScrivo keeps neither audio nor text. A candidate may ask not to be recorded: in that case, handwritten notes.

FAQ

Do I have to tell the candidate?

Yes, always, and get consent before starting. It is also a matter of mutual trust.

Does the text say who is speaking?

No. In a two-person interview, questions and answers are easy to tell apart; in panels, the moderator can name whoever speaks.

Can I transcribe interviews in other languages?

Yes, eight languages; for bilingual interviews leave auto-detect on.
