Recruitment interview transcription

Interview, upload the recording, and compare candidates on the same evidence — what each of them actually said, timestamped.

  • One record per candidate, in their own words
  • A timestamp back to the answer being discussed
  • Anonymise names before you circulate it

Memory is where hiring bias gets in

A panel reconstructing an interview from memory is really comparing how memorable each candidate felt. A transcript moves the debrief back to the answers: someone quotes the line, the timestamp replays it, and the candidate seen on Monday is judged against the same kind of record as the one seen on Friday. Rename or remove names in the editor first if your process asks for anonymous review.

How it works

Three steps to your first transcript

  1. Drop in your file

    Audio or video of any length; the free plan transcribes the first 30 minutes of each file. MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, MOV and a dozen more.

  2. Pick the language

    Leave the language on automatic or set it for better accuracy. Turn on speaker recognition if you need to know who said what.

  3. Read, edit, export

    The transcript opens with clickable timestamps — read it and fix a name straight away. A free account keeps it and exports it as TXT; DOCX, PDF, SRT and VTT come with the unlimited plan.

FAQ

Questions before you upload

Transcribe a file

Do candidates need to know?

Yes. Tell them you are recording and why, and get their agreement before you start. An interview recording is personal data wherever you are, and employment rules differ by country.

Can I remove names before sharing it?

Yes. Rename the speakers and correct any name in the text, then export. The download reflects the edited transcript, not the original recording.

Does it work for a panel of four?

Yes, when people take turns. Similar voices around a single microphone are harder to tell apart; you can merge and rename speakers afterwards.

Working in another language?

All of this works in 62 languages. These are the ones asked for most, each with its own page.
