Interviews.chat vs InterviewMan, swapped mid job hunt and now im second guessing
this is half a vent half a question.
so im in week 3 of recruiter loops and i'd been using Interviews.chat the whole time. paid plan. it's the booster one with unlimited copilot or whatever. perfectly serviceable. nothing wrong with it really. i was happy.
except.
last sunday i caught myself in a zoom preview with the interviews.chat tab sitting wide open on the second monitor. nobody else clocked it (i think). but yeah, scared me because i had a share request the prior thursday and i had not even thought about my tabs.
monday i installed InterviewMan. desktop app, not extension. and it just doesnt appear in screen share. like at all. drag mouse over it during a share and the preview stays empty. i tested twice on my own zoom acct first because i didnt believe it.
two more diffs since im writing this anyway. the streaming was the first thing i noticed once i sat down with it, because the chat thing kind of buffers and then dumps a whole answer in one block, while InterviewMan is incremental and words show up as they generate. doesnt sound huge written out, but it lets me start talking maybe 2 sec earlier and i feel less wooden in behavioral rounds. and then theres the minutes situation, which is that interviews chat counts credits and even though the booster says "unlimited" my actual credit count in the lower tier had been ticking the whole time, whereas with InterviewMan im on a flat plan and i just stopped thinking about how long my final round was gonna run.
so my real q. anyone else mid switch right now? i have one big panel this thursday and dont wanna feel like i made a dumb call based on one accidental tab leak.
