At the same time, recruiters are buried in resumes and moving too fast to catch it. Proctorly Interviews tackles both: smarter screening that saves time, and proctoring built to detect the ways candidates actually cheat today. ### Screen manipulation Hidden overlays, virtual desktops, and secondary monitors used to access answers during live interviews. ### AI assistance and cheatbots AI agents and automated tools that read questions and generate real-time answers for the candidate. ### Proxy candidates Someone else takes the interview or feeds answers off-screen, undermining the entire evaluation. How It Works ## From application to offer — secure at every step Four stages. One platform. Every candidate verified. 01 ### Screen AI filters and ranks resumes by competency and skills level, surfacing the strongest candidates first. 02 ### Track Applicant tracking keeps every candidate, stage, and decision organised in a single workflow. 03 ### Interview Conduct secure, scalable candidate interviews and assessments with AI proctoring running throughout. 04 ### Verify AI proctoring detects manipulation attempts and delivers an integrity-checked view of each candidate.
