Listening

  1. A worker crashes after sending but before it records the send. What happens on the retry?

  2. The retry would send twice, so I key every reminder by invoice and day. The worker checks the key first.

  3. Where does that key live, and what about quiet hours?

  4. In the same store as the job. The scheduler sets the send time from the customer's time zone.

documentEDITABLE

Design a reliable payment-reminder service

Goal

Send each customer one reminder per overdue invoice, on time.

Constraints

  • 1M reminders a day
  • Retries on failure, never a duplicate
  • Quiet hours by time zone

Your design

  • Scheduler writes reminder jobs to a queue
  • Idempotency key per invoice and day
  • Workers retry with backoff, then a dead-letter queue

Modules and levels

Four modules,
matched to the level.

Naira has four kinds of module. The level of the role, L1 to L4, fixes which ones the candidate gets, so everyone at that level faces the same set.

  • M1

    Artifact Audit

    The candidate reviews a piece of work and finds what is wrong with it, and why it matters.

    Document or code, read-only
    For example
    • A nurse reviewing a care note
    • A finance analyst checking a month-end report
    • An engineer reviewing a code change
  • M2

    Scenario Triage

    A case or situation, talked through by voice: what to do first, what to ask, what to say. Role-play lives here.

    Voice only
    For example
    • A sales lead triaging a lost deal
    • A support lead calming an upset customer
    • A clinic manager handling a missed protocol step
  • M3

    System Design

    The candidate gets a brief with the situation and its limits, then designs the approach: a process, a plan or a system.

    A brief on screen
    For example
    • An operations lead designing a returns process
    • A marketer planning a product launch
    • An engineer designing a service
  • M4

    Improve Artifact

    The candidate gets an editable piece of work and improves it while Naira asks about the changes.

    Document or code, editable
    For example
    • A recruiter rewriting a job ad
    • A compliance manager tightening a policy
    • A marketer sharpening a campaign brief
The candidate's screen

What the candidate sees

Naira talks while the screen shows the work for that module. Non-technical roles get documents. Code appears only when the role is technical.

Role-play

Real scenarios.
Naira plays the other side.

In a scenario module Naira becomes the customer, the patient or the stakeholder, and the candidate handles the conversation live.

Naira playsA customerA patientA stakeholder
  • Naira plays the counterpart

    A customer with a complaint, a patient with a question, a stakeholder who pushes back.

  • Written from your material

    The scenario comes from your own task brief or document, not from the job description alone.

  • Case and situational questions

    What would you do first, and why? Scenario modules follow the decision, then the reasons.

TranscriptModule 1 · Handle a US customer who disputes a past-due balance
Role-playVoice only
  1. Candidate15:04

    I'm calling about the account ending in 4471. Our records show a past-due balance of $1,240. Were you aware of that?

  2. Naira · as the customer15:34

    No, that can't be right. I made a payment last month. This has to be a mistake.

  3. Candidate16:04

    I understand this is frustrating, and I want to get it right with you. I see a payment of $300 on the 12th, which leaves $1,240 outstanding.

  4. Naira · as the customer16:34

    That still doesn't sound right to me. I don't want to just take your word for it.

Take-home

Take-home work,
then a voice follow-up.

For work that needs more time than a call, the candidate hands in a take-home. Each item is graded, then Naira talks it through with them by voice.

Executive summary

Maya stayed calm with a customer disputing a past-due balance, gave the required disclosures before discussing money and closed on a confirmed three-month plan. Her call audit caught 4 of 5 planted compliance slips. Documentation accuracy is the weakest area.

Rewards (2)
  1. 1
    Compliant, calm collections callsBefore we go any further, I have to let you know this call is recorded and this is an attempt to collect a debt.
  2. 2
    Closes on a concrete payment planSo to confirm, you're agreeing to $415 today and $412.50 on the 5th and the following 5th — is that right?
Risks (2)
  1. 1
    Documentation accuracy

    Missed one undisclosed call-recording notice in the audit.

  2. 2
    Due dates under pressure

    Hesitated on the exact due date and did not repeat the total balance.

Development path
  • Read-back discipline

    Confirm the total balance and every due date before closing a call.

Recommended next steps
  1. 1.
    Listen to the dispute call

    Play the role-play from 12:04 to hear how she handles pushback.

  2. 2.
    Final round with the team lead

    Focus on documentation and accounts nearing charge-off.

Fair and reliable

The same bar for everyone,
even on a bad connection.

  • Same plan, same rubric

    Every candidate for a role gets the same plan and rubric. Each module draws on a prepared bank of 15 to 25 questions, picked as the conversation goes.

  • Must-pass items

    The rubric items a role cannot do without are marked must-pass, and the report shows each one.

  • A dropped call resumes

    If the call drops, the same session picks up where it stopped, as long as the candidate is back within 24 hours.

  • Shared without a login

    Send the report to a hiring manager by link. No login needed; the link expires after 14 days or when you revoke it.

FAQ

We have the answers

How it works, what it costs, and what your candidates see.

What is Naira, the EmployLabs AI interviewer?

Naira runs a live voice interview from a browser link, any hour, with no app or account. It works for every role, industry and level, using the same plan and rubric for every candidate. Each interview ends in a report with a score out of 100, evidence from the transcript, an integrity score and an English level.

Which roles can Naira interview?

Any role, at any level. Naira builds the interview from your job description: engineering, sales, product, marketing, HR, finance, operations, customer success, legal, and healthcare or other regulated work.

What are M1–M4 and L1–L4?

L1 to L4 are seniority levels: junior, mid, senior, and staff, lead or principal. M1 to M4 are the module types: Artifact Audit, Scenario Triage, System Design and Improve Artifact. The level fixes the set: L1 gets M1, M2 and M4; L2 gets M1, M3 and M4; L3 gets M1 and M3; L4 gets M1, M2 and M3.

Does Naira run code?

No. Candidates read and edit code in an editor Naira can see; nothing is executed. Code only appears when the role is technical. Every other role works on documents.

What language is the interview in?

English. The report includes a CEFR estimate of the candidate's spoken English, with a level for vocabulary, grammar, fluency, organisation and listening.

How long is an interview?

Your plan sets the length. A live call is capped at 60 minutes, and each module at 30.

What happens if the call drops?

The same session resumes where it stopped, as long as the candidate rejoins within 24 hours.

How is cheating handled?

The session is proctored: hidden tabs, lost focus, leaving fullscreen, copy, paste, right-click and the camera going off are logged. The report shows an integrity score from 0 to 100. Below 40 the verdict goes to a person, and it never changes the interview score.

Does the candidate need an app or an account?

No. They join from a browser link, at any hour, within the 14-day window of their invitation.
