Practice Interviews with AI
Many neurodivergent candidates excel in real‑world roles but find interviews challenging, especially technical interviews that require thinking out loud, clarifying problems under pressure, and explaining decisions in real time.
Through the Microsoft Neurodiversity Program, we’ve partnered with Humanly to offer AI‑powered practice interviews designed specifically to support neurodivergent candidates applying for roles through this program as they prepare for Microsoft interviews and navigate the hiring process.
This experience provides a structured, low‑pressure environment where candidates can:
The goal is simple: help candidates show their true potential without the added pressure that traditional interviews can create.
A supportive way to prepare
Many candidates benefit from structured, predictable practice—especially when interviews move quickly or expectations feel implicit. This tool creates a consistent, low‑pressure environment where you can practice at your own pace and focus on improving how you communicate your thinking.
Get comfortable responding to common competency-based prompts while staying focused on your role, actions, and outcomes. Build confidence in tackling questions like “Tell me about a time when…” so you can clearly communicate your experience and make a strong impression.
Practice telling your story with clarity and impact.
Slow down the urge to jump straight into implementation by taking time to talk through requirements, assumptions, and edge cases. Clearly explain your trade-offs and decision-making so your thinking is easy to follow and builds confidence with your interviewer.
Practice communicating your approach—not just writing code.
Use of this practice tool is optional and does not influence Microsoft hiring decisions or interview outcomes. Microsoft does not require the use of any third-party preparation tools as part of its hiring process.
