Comparison
AI Career Mentor vs ChatGPT for interview prep
ChatGPT can answer interview questions and give general feedback, but it has no role-specific scoring, no voice or camera analysis, no progress tracking, and no structured coaching loop. AI Career Mentor is purpose-built for interview preparation.

Bottom line
ChatGPT is a useful supplement for exploring ideas and drafting answers, but it is not an interview coach. It has no consistent scoring rubric, no voice or camera analysis, no session history, and no structured practice loop. AI Career Mentor is built specifically to prepare you for the moment you sit across from a hiring manager.
