Questions
About Interview Warmup and this tool
What happened to Google Interview Warmup?
Google took the tool down in 2026. Its old address now redirects to a page of interview tips on Google’s career site, and the practice tool itself is gone.
Is this the same as Interview Warmup?
No, it’s a different tool from CandidThread. It keeps what people liked about Warmup (free, no account, answer out loud and see what you said) and adds follow-up questions, scores and a stronger version of each answer.
Do I need an account?
No. You can practise 3 rounds a day without one. Every answer’s scores and the first answer’s full feedback are free; a free account opens the rest of the report and keeps it.
Can I practise for a specific job?
Yes. Choose “For a job I’m applying to”, paste the job ad and, if you like, your resume. The questions are written for that job.
