Prove you're ready for your next role.

PokeBot scores your resume against the real hiring bar, shows you exactly what to fix, and drills you with role-specific mock interviews — then opens the door to recruiter introductions when you can prove you're ready.

Free readiness check. No credit card required.

The real bar

Built by hiring managers from Millennium, BlackRock, Amazon, and other leading companies — with insights from veterans across Quant, AI/ML, SWE, Data Science, PM, Finance, and more. We score against the bar we used to set.

Kept current

Mock interviews draw on a question bank updated regularly with the latest publicly-shared interview questions and formats — not a static prep book.

15+ role tracks

Role-specific prep from Quant Researcher and ML Engineer to SWE, Data Scientist, PM, and Investment Banker — with matching interview workbooks for six tracks.

Meet Pokie

Not a chatbot. Not a feature. Your career companion — picking your next quest, running your mocks, and keeping your momentum from base camp to the summit.

We built Pokie because the job search is lonely and easy to lose track of. Pokie remembers where you are, what's next, and what you're working toward — so you're never climbing alone, and you always know your next step.

Why it's different

More than another point tool

Interview prep, chatbots, advice threads, job boards — each fixes one slice of the job search. Here's how PokeBot compares across the whole climb.

vs. Interview Prep Tools

  • No role-calibrated diagnosis
  • No improvement loop across sessions
  • Generic questions, same for everyone

With PokeBot

  • Six formats: Interview Practice, Case Interview, Group Discussion, Performance Review, Pitch & Demo, and Mock Everything
  • Competency scoring with model answers and specific improvement suggestions
  • Audio or text mode with retries and historical score tracking

vs. Generic Chatbots

  • No shared memory between conversations
  • Generic advice regardless of your background
  • No structured career data to build on

With PokeBot

  • Structured user data from every practice session
  • Your resume, interviews, and plan inform each other
  • Proprietary knowledge base with continuous updating

vs. Ad-hoc Career Advice

  • No mechanism to encourage execution
  • One-off tips with no follow-through
  • No way to measure if you're improving

With PokeBot

  • Gamification and AI companion to keep you on track
  • Every step feeds the next in a continuous loop
  • Career score and progress dashboards show real growth

vs. Job Boards

  • Just listings, no personalized matching
  • No help preparing for the roles you find
  • Applications disappear into a void

With PokeBot

  • AI matching + Warm Intros, not just listings
  • Resume tailoring and mock interviews for each role
  • Open Warm Intro paths for high-fit, high-intent candidates
Prove it, don't claim it

Everyone can claim skills.
PokeBot helps you prove them

AI made polished applications easy and proof scarce, so every role drowns in look-alike resumes. PokeBot turns practice into demonstrated readiness — and readiness into a Power Intro instead of a cold application.

The old way — claim

  • “I'm interview-ready” (says the resume)
  • “I know Python / ML / system design”
  • Cold-apply and hope for a callback
  • No idea what the real bar is

The PokeBot way — prove

  • Clear curated skill tests and earn Bronze→Gold badges across Quant, AI/ML, SWE & more
  • Mock interviews — behavioral, technical, case, pitch — with competency scores
  • A readiness meter that fills as you climb your milestone journey
  • Reach interview-ready → unlock a Power Intro badge

Challenges that turn skills into verified proof

Pick a path and clear curated challenges graded against real test cases and rubrics. Earn a Bronze, Silver, or Gold badge for each track you clear — badges live on your profile and count toward the Power Intro status you can unlock.

THE SUMMIT REWARD

Power Intro Eligibility

Reach the summit to earn Power Intro eligibility — a hard-earned status, separate from the open-to-all Warm Intro, that signals high competency and high intent. We highlight it when warm intros and referral opportunities open up.

As you earn Power Intro status, your introductions can open doors across:

Eligibility depends on demonstrated performance and partner availability. PokeBot helps you become eligible for opportunities; we never guarantee a job, referral, or interview.

Testimonials

What early users are saying

Feedback from beta users across software engineering, data science, quant finance, and graduate programs.

The memory is a real edge — it remembers context far better than a generic AI chatbot. And the UI is very clean, easy to use.
Senior Software Engineer · Financial Services
The results are genuinely thorough — I could keep digging into the suggested roles and industries.
Senior Data Scientist · Big Tech
The mock-interview questions are high quality, and the feedback afterward is just as good. The interface feels clean and the navigation is clear.
STEM PhD Candidate · Research University
Low barrier, immediate value, no steep onboarding. The mock interview and Warm Intro hit the biggest pain point — I'd use this in a real job search.
Early-Career Job Seeker
Warm Intro surfaced a lot of off-market positions — really valuable when you're not hearing back from your applications.
Software Engineer · Quantitative Finance
The feature set is broad and genuinely useful — resume generation, mock interviews, and planning all feel relevant to what I'm doing.
Master's Student · Financial Engineering
Why we exist

PokeBot is built by people who've been there, for people who are going through it. AI made applications easy to produce and hard to evaluate — so we built the climb we wish had existed: a way to go from looking qualified to actually being qualified, and unlock Power Intro opportunities as you get there.
