fika jobs raised $4m to launch a hiring platform that replaces resumes with ai-conducted video interviews. candidates interview with an ai agent powered by google gemini, which generates video clips that employers can browse to assess communication skills. the startup operates on a contingency model, charging employers 10% of the candidate's first-year salary only if they make a hire, undercutting traditional recruiter fees. this approach targets early-career professionals by highlighting soft skills, but critics note that video profiles introduce new bias risks compared to blind screening.
