Problem

With KORAIL announcing a massive 1,830-position recruitment drive, tens of thousands of public sector job seekers must prepare for NCS-based (National Competency Standards) interviews. Offline interview study groups have time and location constraints, while academy mock interviews cost ~$37-75 (50,000-100,000 KRW) per session with 10+ repetitions needed, totaling ~$375-750 (500,000-1,000,000 KRW). Preparing predicted questions based on personal statements alone is difficult, extending preparation periods to 2-3 months.

Solution

Users input their target organization, position, and personal statement, and AI generates NCS competency-based predicted interview questions. Voice-recorded answers receive real-time feedback on structure, logic, and key competency coverage. Includes a database of past interview questions by organization with successful candidate answer pattern analysis, and offers 1:1 mock interview matching between applicants targeting the same position.

Target: Public sector job seekers ages 20-30, especially applicants to large-scale recruitments at KORAIL, KEPCO, National Health Insurance Service, etc.
Revenue Model: Freemium: basic question generation free (3/day); Pro Plan at ~$22 (29,000 KRW)/month (unlimited mock interviews + AI feedback + past question DB); 2-week intensive course at ~$37 (49,000 KRW)
Ecosystem Role: Education
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
