## What it is
InterviewOS is a self-hosted platform for running job-relevant technical assessments instead of algorithm puzzles. It records candidates' full workflows as they complete realistic assignments and generates structured evaluation reports for reviewers.

## Use cases
- run realistic coding assessments for hiring candidates
- replace leetcode-style interviews with real-work simulations
- record and review a candidate's full problem-solving workflow
- generate structured evaluation reports for interview calibration
- evaluate how candidates debug, use AI tools, and make tradeoffs
- self-host a technical interview platform with Docker

## When to choose
- your team wants job-relevant, evidence-rich technical hiring instead of puzzle interviews
- you need workflow recordings plus structured reports for reviewer calibration
- you want a self-hosted, MIT-licensed assessment platform you control

## When to avoid
- you only need quick algorithmic screening puzzles or MCQ tests
- you want a fully managed SaaS with no Docker/self-hosting overhead
- you need proctored exams for non-technical roles
