Show HN: AI-powered tool to convert tech job requirements into interview plan

Hey HN, just wanted to share the side-project I created with you.<p>One of my responsibilities (or rather extra-activity) is to do technical interviews. Usually, it is some mid to senior-level developer, sometimes S1-S2, for some random .NET-related position. It&#x27;s a pure evaluation of the technical knowledge: C#, ASP-net, cloud, SQL - all that stuff we use daily.<p>I have a checklist and a set of questions that I ask again and again. Each time before an interview, I adapt the list of questions a bit to fit the job description and evaluation chart for HRs.<p>You could see where it&#x27;s going. Because all I ask is quite average common knowledge, I thought that AI could do it better. And it does: by feeding the job description and some comments I was able to get a good list of related technical questions for the interview.<p>I liked the result so much, that I paused my OSS project and wrapped the idea into a tool. A simple tool that creates a tailored assessment matrix (the checklist) and a list of questions and answers. Not a SaaS, no subscriptions, no accounts. You provide a job description, click a button, and download a tailored PDF with questions to use wherever you want.<p>So my educated guess here is that I might be not the only one who needs this. I might be wrong, I usually am, but, well, it&#x27;s there and I intend to push it forward for some time.<p>Distribution-wise, it&#x27;s a LinkedIn product. All HR-related stuff is always LinkedIn and I have 700+ connections there which might actually be finally useful.<p>Or not. It all might be another flop, but that&#x27;s how this thing works.<p>Built with htmx+dotnet btw
