What gets scored in every session
Specific, sentence-level feedback.
| Dimension | What it measures | How to answer |
|---|---|---|
| Model Rigor | Was your model structured correctly? We probe for driver identification, assumption clarity, and scenario analysis, not just output accuracy. | Assumption transparency, key driver naming |
| Assumption Clarity | Can you name and defend your key assumptions? We flag answers where assumptions are implicit or generic rather than explicitly stated. | Explicit assumption naming, source or rationale |
| Business Judgment | Did your analysis lead to a clear recommendation? 'Here's what the model shows' is a weak ending. We score whether you took a position. | Recommendation presence, business framing |
| Impact Quantification | What did the analysis change? We look for a downstream business outcome, a decision made, a project stopped, costs saved. | Decision impact, $ or % savings, outcome specificity |
How a session works
Step 1: Get your Booking.com Finance 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.
