  • After the first 24 hours of a trial, you need a card on file to watch real candidates. Sample candidates stay free.
  • Opening a real candidate sends them one email that the hiring team opened their interview.

1. Watch a sample candidate (2 minutes)

Your trial has a sample job with 3 sample candidates. Open one from Candidates. Press Space to play, 1 to 5 to rate, and J for the next candidate. See Review candidates fast.

Each job has one link. On Jobs, the copy icon copies it. Paste it in an email, a text, or a job post. Or click Invite to email it from DeepHire. Open the link yourself first to see what candidates see.

4. Review your first real candidate

You get an email when a candidate finishes. About 15 minutes later, the AI summary is ready. Read it, then watch the answers that matter.
