Smarter talent preparation starts here with Coaching Hub
Bring true-to-life training from employers and power it with AI to give your students hyper-personalised training.
- AI interview training
Help students build confidence and boost performance with AI-powered interview training. Use real employer or university interviews, or create your own—complete with automated scoring, instant feedback, personalised coaching tips, and answer authenticity checks.
- CV Co-pilot
Boost CV quality and application success rates with CV Co-pilot—our AI tool helping students craft, target, and optimise their CVs for real roles, then creates an interview simulation based on the student CV and job goal – for precision targeted training.
- Aptitude tests
Designed by psychologists to uncover cognitive ability, personality traits and decision-making skills, students can practice using the actual tests used in most early talent recruitment schemes.
- Skills assessments
Focused on practical, job-relevant capabilities – from basic maths and communication to software skills and role-specific competencies. Select from the library or build your own.
- Workplace simulations
Situational experiences, job previews and day-in-the-life tasks that challenge judgement, teamwork and problem-solving in realistic scenarios.
- Self assessments
Build self-awareness and boost application confidence. Students uncover their strengths, traits, values and motivations, then match to roles and tailor how they present themselves in CVs, applications and interviews.
Unlike some systems, our AI isn’t reverse engineered in. We started with AI. We adapt our AI weekly, so you can always rest assured you have the most advanced job readiness tools available.
We analyse 2,500 data points per student interview to deliver truly personalised guidance. We crunch 1,500 data points across a CV to tailor to the target job role. We create unlimited new interviews based on job role and CV.

Universities
Universities face mounting pressure to provide personalised support at scale. But with limited staff and rising expectations, how can careers teams help students craft targeted CVs, practise real interviews, and get meaningful feedback on presentation, confidence, and job readiness?

Business Schools
Business schools must deliver exceptional graduate outcomes to stay competitive. But preparing students for elite MBAs and high-stakes interviews at top-tier firms takes time, expertise—and scale.
Shortlister partners with leading business schools to simulate the exact interviews and tests students will face. From precision CV targeting to MBA-style grilling based on real CVs, we help students stand out where it matters. Give your school the edge with Shortlister.
