Using AI in your interview process

At Robeco, we welcome AI as a tool, and you’re very much encouraged to use it while preparing for your interviews: for example to brainstorm likely questions, practice structuring your answers, research our firm, review technical concepts and refine your CV. What matters to us is that everything you submit is genuinely yours. You should be able to explain every line of your application.

During the interviews itself, however, AI tools are not permitted. This means no AI listening in, no real-time prompts or suggestions on another device or browser, no reading or paraphrasing AI-generated answers. Using AI in these ways may affect your candidacy. Our goal is to understand how you think and what really drives you.

All applications will be treated with the utmost confidentiality. An assessment and integrity test may be used in the selection procedure.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
