Karat created the world’s first Interviewing Cloud to conduct technical interviews on behalf of organizations hiring software engineers. The Interviewing Cloud uses a global network of experienced engineers trained to deliver consistent interviews with questions and formats that align to your roles and hiring bar.
Experienced engineers are available to conduct live technical interviews 24/7. Flexible scheduling lets your candidates move through the process faster, accelerating hiring.
Consistent interviews using proven interview content and objective scoring rubrics reduce noise by focusing on the specific skills and competencies required for your roles.
Karat’s analytics, industry benchmarking, and predictive recommendations let you spend more time with the right candidates and make hiring decisions with confidence.
In a world without enough software engineers, inequity is a business problem. Karat’s structured process and consistent interviews reduce bias, helping more of your candidates showcase their brilliance.

In the US, just 5% of software engineers are Black, and less than half of Black computer science students have had a practice interview. But those with three or more practice interviews are six times more likely to land an internship. Learn more about how we’re working to close the Interview Access Gap.
Karat’s Interviewing Cloud and Brilliant Black Minds are creating a tech industry that represents ALL of us – giving organizations access to a deeper interview-ready talent pool and bringing more unique voices to the table while unlocking even more engineering time and supporting DEI initiatives.
Karat’s Interviewing Cloud has become a significant differentiator for how we hire engineers. Karat is incredibly consistent and has data nobody else has, it’s like holding a mirror up to your full hiring process and seeing what’s working well and where you need to improve.

It’s enablement; I couldn’t do the job without it. I rely heavily on Karat because it is the one thing in our hiring process that is consistent and systematic. The inconsistent output I’d get if Karat did not conduct the interviews would throw me off completely.

Karat has allowed us to free up thousands of hours in engineering time that was used in technical phone screens while still matching our hiring bar. The impact has been especially noticeable in peak hiring seasons where we can now interview hundreds of candidates in a short window and deliver a responsive candidate experience.
John EganHead of Growth Engineering
I am incredibly proud of our partnership. Karat’s interviews are highly predictive and provide a fair and responsive experience for our candidates.
Nick MaileyFormer VP of Talent Acquisition
The end result is our stellar team and growth trajectory. [Karat] allowed us to reflect on what kind of team we wanted to build, and the caliber of engineers needed to get us there.
