The evidence that makes the difference

Go into the next conversation knowing what to explore.

A CV tells part of the story. Nova’s interviews explore concrete examples and decisions, then assess the conversation against your role’s criteria. Your team can see what supports a rating and where the evidence is incomplete.

Nova

Could you tell me about a specific time at Northstar where you had to make a tough call on how much analytical precision was needed versus moving quickly with the product squad? What was the decision and the tradeoff?

Alex, demo candidate

I paused the rollout. The apparent improvement was partly a change in who signed up. Our before-and-after onboarding comparison looked strong, but acquisition mix had shifted. I explained that uncertainty to the product lead and proposed a randomized test. We kept the existing flow running while we collected enough data to separate the design effect from the audience change. That cost a week, but avoided rolling out on misleading evidence.

The candidate experience

Give candidates room to show what they can do.

Candidates can read about the role and the process before applying. Eligible candidates can start their interview when they are ready or book a time to return.

Nova asks practical questions and follows up on their answers, giving them space to explain the work behind their CV. Candidates know they are speaking with AI and that the hiring team can review the conversation.

A clear start. Relevant questions. Time to explain.

Control and trust

Your hiring standards. Your shortlist.

Your team defines the criteria and chooses whom to shortlist and hire. Nova makes the reasoning behind its assessments available to review.

Must-pass requirements can automatically decline candidates when the evidence shows a failure. Missing or unclear evidence alone does not trigger those rules.

How assessment and control work

Questions before getting started.

Commercial details live on Pricing. Assessment and data handling on Trust.

Can we try Nova without speaking to sales?

Yes. You can start with one role and up to 25 interviews without a sales call. The Pricing page explains the trial terms and how to continue.

Do we need candidates already?

You can share your role’s application link or invite candidates directly. Sourcing is available where enabled for your organisation. The trial allowance covers interviews; it is not a promise of 25 candidates.

Does Nova make the hiring decision?

Your team chooses whom to shortlist and hire. Must-pass rules can decline candidates on evidenced failure. An optional close-out automation can also decline adequately assessed candidates below your configured bar; it starts disabled. Read how control works.

What do we receive after an interview?

An assessment against your role’s criteria, supporting answers, and areas where the evidence is incomplete. You can review the conversation and decide what to explore next.

Will candidates know they are speaking with AI?

Yes. Candidates are told they are speaking with an AI interviewer and that the hiring team can review the conversation.
