The round-table

Two interviewers, back to back.
Nobody warns you who's next.

The hiring manager opens on motivation and fit. Technical presses on specifics — all in one session, questions pulled from the posting you picked.

Hiring Manager Technical
LIVE Q3 / 4 · 07:42
Hiring Manager· opening
Walk me through why you're leaving your current role. Two sentences, not the LinkedIn version.
You
The team's been de-prioritized twice in eight months. I want to build somewhere the roadmap doesn't reset every quarter.
Technical· follow-up
You said you "optimized the pipeline" on your resume. Optimized for what, specifically — and what did you trade off to get it?
You
Cut p99 latency by trading batch writes for a queue. The cost was eventual consistency, which the team hadn't signed off on yet.
Sample transcript for this page. Every real session generates fresh questions from the job posting you choose.
Is this for you

This isn't for everyone.
That's kind of the point.

Skip it if you want
  • A step-by-step script to memorize before the real thing
  • A score you can screenshot and feel good about
  • Feedback that's careful about softening the blow
This is for you if you want
  • An honest read on whether you'd actually get the offer
  • To feel real interview pressure before it costs you a real one
  • A panel that interrupts and presses, and doesn't perform kindness
The brutal part

A score doesn't tell you if
you'd get hired. A verdict does.

Most practice tools grade you as you go, which quietly trains you to perform for the grader. Real interviews don't hand out partial credit mid-conversation — so neither do we.

No live scoring

Nothing tells you how you're doing while you're doing it. Sitting with that discomfort is the training.

Written like the real thing

Your verdict reads like an actual acceptance or rejection letter — not a rubric with a number on it.

Held until the end

Feedback is deliberately deferred, then delivered once, all at once — the way the real result actually lands.

Without / with

Talking to yourself doesn't prepare you.
A panel that won't go easy does.

Without Brutalmock
Rehearsing alone in the mirror
No pushback, no follow-up, no pressure.
Asking a friend to run lines
"Honestly? You'd crush it." — kind, not useful.
A generic AI chat
"Great answer! I'd give that a 9/10." — grade inflation.
With Brutalmock
Two personas, one real posting
Technical and the Hiring Manager, built from the job you picked.
Follow-ups that press on the weak spot
Vague on trade-offs? You'll be asked to name them.
One verdict, no inflation possible
Accept or reject. Written once, at the end.
What you get at the end

Not a score.
A letter.

No stars, no percentage, no six-competency radar chart. Just the verdict, written the way the company would actually write it — and the full transcript in your mailbox, so you can see exactly where it turned.

Brutalmock — Round-Table VerdictRE: Senior Backend Engineer

Thank you for taking the time to speak with our panel today.

After reviewing your conversation with Technical and the Hiring Manager, we've decided not to move forward with your application at this time. Your systems-design answers were sound, but your response on ownership under pressure didn't give the hiring manager enough to work with.

We'd encourage you to revisit how you talk about failure — specifically what you'd do differently next time, not just what went wrong.

Is it actually free right now?
Yes. No card, for as long as it's in beta. You'll just need a free account to see your verdict — see the next question.
Do I need an account?
Not to start. You can run a full round-table without signing up. To see your verdict, you'll need a free account — email and password, or continue with Google. Takes about a minute, and it's what lets you come back to your transcript later.
What does "brutal" mean here, exactly?
No live scoring, no hints, no coaching tone mid-session. You get one honest verdict at the end, written the way the company would actually write it — not a rubric.
Can I use my own job posting?
Yes — pick from six real postings, or paste in your own job description and the panel is built from that instead.
Who decides the verdict?
The panel, straight from the session — it lands in your mailbox the moment your round table ends, no queue in between.
What if I disagree with the result?
That disagreement is useful information too. Your verdict comes with the full transcript in your mailbox, so you can see exactly where it turned.
Is my session shared anywhere?
No leaderboard, no public posting of your transcript. It's yours, private to your account in your mailbox.

Your next interview shouldn't
be your first rehearsal.
