Artificial intelligence has moved from a supportive back-office function to the primary gateway in modern recruitment, serving as the initial interaction point for many candidates and companies alike. Experts noted that platforms specialising in AI-driven video interviews are experiencing rapid growth amid this transformation.
Nexxascreen, an AI-powered video interview platform, has set an ambitious target of conducting more than one million interviews over the next 12 months. The company claims that it has conducted 120,000 interviews in the past six months. The company also reported a fivefold increase in its mock interview segment between January and March 2026, highlighting rising demand for preparation tools in an AI-first hiring landscape.
“We were screening the same way we did five years ago – phone calls, manual scoring, inconsistent feedback. The move to AI screening wasn’t just about speed. It changed what we could actually measure,” Vinay Jain, Founder, Nexxascreen said.
The momentum aligns with broader industry trends. According to LinkedIn’s 2025 Future of Recruiting report and related talent insights, AI adoption in recruitment continues to accelerate, with a significant portion of talent professionals viewing it as essential for efficiency and skills-based hiring. In the Asia-Pacific region, over 60% of high-volume recruiters have adopted or are evaluating AI screening tools—a near doubling from two years earlier—driven by surging application volumes and talent shortages.
A Greenhouse 2026 Candidate AI Interview Report, surveying nearly 3,000 job seekers, found that 63% of US respondents had experienced an AI interview, up 13 percentage points from six months prior.
Nexxascreen’s growth spans key high-volume sectors, including business process outsourcing (BPO), banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), and sales roles, where traditional manual screening has long created bottlenecks. On the candidate side, more than 65% of mock interview users come from Tier 2 and Tier 3 colleges, signaling strong demand from non-metro talent pools seeking to compete in AI-evaluated processes.
“AI is no longer just screening candidates; it is changing how candidates prepare. Mock interviews are emerging as a critical layer, and we’re seeing massive pull from students and job seekers who want to be ready for this shift,” Jain explained.
The platform reports an average interview completion rate exceeding 80%, which it says outperforms typical benchmarks for asynchronous video screening tools. Market forecasts support this optimism: the global AI video interview market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 17% in coming years, fueled by demand for efficient, scalable hiring solutions.
With accelerating interest from campuses and early-career professionals, Nexxascreen is leveraging mock interviews as a key growth engine alongside its enterprise screening offerings. This dual focus positions the company to meet rising expectations for both recruiter efficiency and candidate preparedness in an increasingly AI-mediated job market.
