1. Introduction

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the InterviewBetter platform ("Platform" or "InterviewBetter"), operated by TNGONE SOFTWARE LABS PRIVATE LIMITED, a company incorporated in India. By accessing, browsing, or using the Platform or purchasing any services provided through it, you ("Candidate," "User," or "You") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Platform.

2. Definitions

• Platform: InterviewBetter is an online service marketplace that connects professionals ("Interviewers") and users ("Candidates") for the purpose of conducting mock interviews, training sessions, resume reviews, and other value-added services to aid career preparation.
• Candidate: An individual who registers on the Platform to purchase, schedule, or participate in mock interviews, training sessions, or related services.
• Interviewer: An independent professional engaged via the Platform to conduct interviews, offer training, or provide feedback. Interviewers are independent contractors vetted by the Platform through a process including qualification verification and background checks, but they are not employees of InterviewBetter.
• Interview Slot: A scheduled, fixed-duration appointment during which an interview or training session is conducted.
• No-Show: A situation where a Candidate or Interviewer fails to attend a scheduled Interview Slot without providing at least 24 hours’ prior notice of cancellation or rescheduling, or fails to join the session within 10 minutes of the scheduled start time, unless caused by technical issues verifiable by the Platform.
• Services: Includes mock interviews, practice interviews, strategy calls, resume reviews, group discussions, and other training or advisory sessions offered on the Platform.

3. Services

InterviewBetter facilitates the professional development of Candidates by providing access to practice environments, recruiter-quality feedback, and structured guidance conducted by qualified Interviewers. The Platform acts solely as a facilitator and does not directly provide these services.

3.1 ATS (Automated Resume Checks)

Definition: An Applicant Tracking System–style feature that evaluates resumes against common industry criteria. It provides automated checks, heuristic scoring, and guidance to improve readability, relevance, and alignment to job requirements.

Best Use: Works best when used together with the specific job description (JD) for the role being applied to. Supplying a JD generally yields more relevant insights and recommendations.

Limitations: Built from publicly available information, practitioner interviews, and industry research about how ATS systems commonly operate. It is a generalized tool and is not tailored to, endorsed by, or affiliated with any particular employer or ATS vendor. Results are indicative, not definitive, and do not guarantee interviews, shortlisting, or hiring outcomes. Algorithmic methods, thresholds, and outputs may evolve over time as the product improves.

Warranty Disclaimer: The ATS and related outputs are provided “as‑is” and without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non‑infringement. We use reasonable skill and care in building the product, and best efforts are made to maintain quality; however, we do not warrant uninterrupted or error‑free operation.

3.2 Expert Resume Feedback

A written critique prepared by a recruiter or hiring practitioner. This is intended to closely mimic the first‑minute recruiter scan, highlighting what stands out and what can be improved. Deliverables typically include concise observations and prioritized suggestions to improve structure, clarity, evidence of impact, and role relevance. This guidance does not guarantee interviews or offers; refunds and scheduling follow Sections 5 and 6.

3.3 1:1 Resume Review

A live session with a recruiter and/or industry expert to review the resume and provide actionable feedback from a recruiter/hiring manager perspective. The session focuses on identifying issues, strengthening achievements and evidence, and improving alignment to the target role so the Candidate can implement changes. This guidance does not guarantee interviews or offers; rescheduling, no‑show, and refunds are governed by Sections 5 and 6.

3.4 Mock Interview

A simulated interview session for practice.

3.5 Practice Interview

A focused interview session targeting specific topics or rounds.

3.6 Group Discussion

A multi‑candidate moderated group round simulation.

3.7 Strategy Call

A 1‑on‑1 advisory session for interview planning, preparation, or possible career paths.

3.8 Resume Review

A feedback session on a Candidate’s resume.

3.9 Add‑On: Employment Database

InterviewBetter may offer Candidates the option to be included in an internal employment database shared with potential employers. Inclusion is voluntary and subject to InterviewBetter’s discretion based on Candidate qualifications and profile completeness. Candidates may opt out or request removal by contacting support@interviewbetter.io. No job placement is guaranteed.

4. Fair Usage Policy

• Unlimited Package Misuse: If a Candidate commits a No-Show for two scheduled interviews, InterviewBetter may issue a warning. After a third No-Show, the plan may be suspended, with prior notice to the Candidate. Candidates may appeal suspensions by contacting support@interviewbetter.io.
• Interviewer No-Show: If an Interviewer commits a No-Show (as defined in Section 2):
  • For Candidates on any Unlimited Package, no refund will be issued, as Candidates may schedule a new interview without time restrictions, subject to Interviewer availability.
  • For Candidates on other plans, a rescheduled slot will be offered at the earliest available time. If rescheduling is not feasible, a refund for the session may be provided.
• Candidate Rescheduling: Candidates may reschedule interviews with at least 24 hours’ notice, subject to the terms of their plan. Rescheduling is not permitted after a No-Show.

7. Quality of Service and Disclaimer

InterviewBetter strives to maintain high-quality services by vetting Interviewers for qualifications and professionalism. However, services are provided "as-is," and InterviewBetter does not guarantee specific outcomes from interviews or training. Feedback provided by Interviewers represents their professional opinions and is not endorsed by the Platform. If a Candidate is dissatisfied with a session, they may report their concerns to support@interviewbetter.io within 48 hours for review. InterviewBetter may offer a replacement session with a different Interviewer at its discretion.

8. Data Collection, Recording, and Use

• Recording Consent: Sessions may be recorded for quality assurance, training, legal compliance, or dispute resolution purposes.
• Usage of Recordings: Recordings will be stored securely and retained for a maximum of 12 months unless required for legal purposes. Recordings may be used to investigate disputes or abuse claims.

Personal data will be anonymized in accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, before use in AI training.

Interviewers are independent contractors vetted by InterviewBetter for qualifications and professionalism. They are not employees of the Platform. InterviewBetter exercises due diligence in vetting but is not liable for Interviewer actions, omissions, or performance beyond ensuring proper vetting processes. Candidates may report Interviewer concerns to support@interviewbetter.io for investigation.

11. Privacy and Anonymization

• Session Privacy: Interview sessions will not be publicly shared unless Candidates explicitly consent (e.g., for anonymized feedback to be displayed on the Platform). Personal data will be anonymized before any sharing.
• Interviewer Anonymity: Interviewers may choose to appear anonymously in sessions to protect their privacy, but their qualifications will be verified and available to candidates upon request.
• Data Protection: InterviewBetter complies with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, ensuring secure handling of personal data. Candidates may withdraw consent for data processing by contacting dpo@interviewbetter.io.

• Prohibited Conduct: Harassment, abuse, threats, or unlawful behavior during sessions is strictly prohibited. Candidates and Interviewers may report such behavior via support@interviewbetter.io.
• Platform Actions: InterviewBetter will investigate reported incidents and may suspend or terminate accounts for violations. Recordings may be used as evidence in investigations or legal proceedings.
• Liability: InterviewBetter is not liable for actions outside its control but will cooperate with authorities as required.
