What gets scored in every session
| Dimension | What it measures | How to answer |
|---|---|---|
| Discovery Depth | Do you start with customer pain or product pitch? We score how far into diagnosis you go before presenting a solution. | Question sequencing, pain-first framing |
| Objection Handling | We detect acknowledgment, reframe, and evidence patterns, not just 'I listened carefully.' | Acknowledge, reframe, evidence structure |
| Pipeline Metrics | Results without numbers fail. We flag answers without quota %, deal size, conversion rate, or revenue attribution. | %, $, ratio, or growth delta in Result |
| Personal Attribution | What did you specifically do, not the team? We flag 'we closed the deal' and surface where you need to claim ownership. | 'I' ownership, 'we' overuse, action specificity |
How a session works
Step 1: Get your 1 Automotive Sales question
You are assigned questions based on where candidates for this role typically struggle most. Each session starts fresh with a new question targeting a different evaluation dimension.
Step 2: Answer by voice
Speak your answer as you would in a real interview. The AI listens for STAR structure and evaluation dimension signals in real time as you speak.
Step 3: Get scored dimension by dimension
Instant scores across all four rubric dimensions. Each gets a score, a flagged weakness, and a specific sentence-level fix, not 'be more specific' but which sentence to rewrite and why.
Step 4: Re-answer and track improvement
Revise based on feedback and answer again. See the before/after score change. Your weakness profile updates across sessions so practice becomes more targeted over time.
