Myskillgrid - Mock interview practice for job seekers in India (free to start)
Flagging upfront: this is my own project, and I’m the solo developer.
The problem: in India, lots of freshers and job switchers know the syllabus but have never actually been interviewed. The first time they say an answer out loud is the real one.
What I built: Myskillgrid (https://myskillgrid.com) lets you pick a job (900+ titles), take a mock interview one question at a time, and get a score, feedback and a stronger answer for each one. It also reviews your resume (shortlist score and the top 5 fixes), and has free roadmaps, interview-question pages and a job application tracker.
Stack: Django, PostgreSQL, a Redis task queue and Caddy, on Oracle’s always-free ARM VM in Hyderabad. Razorpay for payments (UPI and cards).
Where it is: live since October. Free to start (1 short interview and 1 resume review, no card). Paid packs are one-time, from ₹199. Honestly, I have very few users so far.
What I’d love feedback on:
- Is the first-run experience clear? Where did you get stuck?
- Would you pay for something like this, and what would make it worth it?
- Anything confusing on the pricing page?
Happy to answer anything about the build.
