What is Ivy?

Ivy is Talview’s AI-powered virtual interviewer that guides you through an interview just like a conversation. Ivy asks questions, listens to your responses, and shares them with the hiring team for review. You can complete the interview anytime, from web or mobile, without waiting for a human interviewer.

What to Expect During the Interview

A natural, conversation-style flow

Ivy will ask questions one at a time. Respond by speaking clearly and naturally.

Follow-up questions

Ivy may ask additional questions if more clarity is needed—this is part of the conversation.

Time-bound responses

Each question has a time limit, shown at the top of your screen. Use your time wisely but don’t rush.

Audio + Video access

Your camera and microphone must stay on throughout the interview.

Auto submission

Once the interview ends, your responses are saved and securely sent to the hiring team.

Tips for a Smooth Experience

✔️ Choose a quiet, distraction-free space

Keep background movement and noise to a minimum. You can also use the noise cancellation option built into the assessment UI.

✔️ Keep your face visible and well-lit

Sit in a steady, well-lit area with your camera at eye level.

✔️ Speak naturally and confidently

Ivy understands regular conversation, and you can respond naturally, as you would in person.

✔️ Stay focused

Avoid switching apps, multitasking, or checking your phone during the interview.

✔️ Keep your device steady (for mobile users)

Prop your phone on a stable surface to avoid shaking or movement.
