Today's Resource Share is a bit different. We all know about chatbots and Artificial Intelligence; most times they are used for advertising (sometimes for nefarious purposes). However, Grow with Google's Interview Warmup utilizes both chatbots and AI to help users get to practice being interviewed for a job. The program asks simple interview questions and then the user can use either their microphone or keyboard to answer the questions and get feedback on their answers to improve their interviewee skills. Great for students who are learning about resumes and the workforce to see how they could improve their interview skills. Check it out at the following link:
