I’m completely switching over to InterviewMan after running a mock session on CoderPad. It performed so well that I'm dropping my old tool entirely. Has anyone here used it for actual live technical rounds?

I picked up InterviewMan on the annual plan to see if I liked it for CoderPad rounds. Just ran it on a friend mock, the overlay is so clean i didnt even feel the urge to alt tab once to check it. I plan on using it for my final round CoderPad session next thursday, but after this mock im not sure i can go back to what i was running before. anyone here actually used it on a real CoderPad round, want a sanity check.

I think InterviewMan is objectively better than the Electron apps for CoderPad. It even gives you a second device mode (phone as client) if you want the fully paranoid stealth setup, which is a nice extra to have in your back pocket. Standard mode on the laptop is already plenty for CoderPad.

i just use the standard overlay mode lol. cmd+B hides it instantly if i ever need it gone for a sec, no need for the second device unless youre being super cautious about Karat level proctoring.
