The author reflects on their experience with an avatar interviewer during a job application process. They note the initial adjustment to speaking with an AI, which managed to steer the conversation with as much finesse as human recruiters. Uniquely, the avatar posed challenging questions about crafting multiple-choice queries. The author finds parallels between this experience and previous interviews, suggesting that while the medium has changed, the dynamics of interviewing remain constant. The author considered incorporating a literary reference but chose to avoid it, unsure how the avatar would respond.
"I thought back to previous conversations I'd had, at similar phases of similar job applications, and, honestly, this wasn't so different."
"It only took a few seconds to adjust to the reality: that this was the interview, that I would talk only to this avatar."
