 ABSTRACT

In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, where students pursuing technical degrees are
constantly balancing coursework, internships, and part-time jobs, the allocation of time for crucial skill
assessments becomes increasingly challenging. As graduation looms, the absence of adequate
interview preparation can instill fear and undermine confidence levels.

The challenge is posed by inflexible schedules and set interview timelines, which make it difficult for
students to connect theoretical knowledge with the practical skills necessary in the competitive tech
industry. It's crucial for students to continuously adapt and acquire advanced skills to stay relevant in
the face of rapid technological advancements..
With technology evolving rapidly, students must continually acquire advanced skills to remain
competitive. While current models contribute to skill development, they often fall short in providing
personalized one-on-one interview experiences.

Existing skill development models often fail to provide personalized one-on-one interview
experiences, leaving students without adequate guidance to excel. However, assessing interview
performance and identifying areas for improvement remains challenging.

Our proposed approach leverages OpenAI keys and LangChain models to revolutionize interview
preparation by generating tailored questions from user resumes, enhancing the learning experience.
Streamlit facilitates seamless interaction, while OpenAI integration enhances simulation sophistication,
bridging the gap between theory and practice. This comprehensive solution represents a paradigm
shift, empowering students to excel confidently in job interviews.

3.3 FEASIBILITY STUDY

A feasibility study is an analysis that takes all a project's relevant factors into account including
economic, technical, legal, and scheduling considerations to ascertain the likelihood of completing the
project successfully. A feasibility study is important and essential to evolute any proposed project is
feasible or not. A feasibility study is simply an assessment of the practicality of a proposed plan or
project.

The main objectives of feasibility are mentioned below:

18 | P a g e
To determine if the product is technically and financially feasible to develop, is the main aim of the
feasibility study activity. A feasibility study should provide management with enough information to
decide:

• Whether the project can be done.

• To determine how successful your proposed action will be.
• Whether the final product will benefit its intended users.
• To describe the nature and complexity of the project.
• What are the alternatives among which a solution will be chosen (During subsequent phases)

To analyze if the software meets organizational requirements. There are various types of feasibility
that can be determined. They are:

• Operational : Define the urgency of the problem and the acceptability of any solution,
includes people-oriented and social issues: internal issues, such as manpower problems, labor
objections, manager resistance, organizational conflicts, and policies; also, external issues,
including social acceptability, legal aspects, and government regulations.
• Technical : Is the feasibility within the limits of current technology? Does the technology
exist at all? Is it available within a given resource?
• Economic : Is the project possible, given resource constraints? Are the benefits that will
accrue from the new system worth the costs? What are the savings that will result from the
system, including tangible and intangible ones? What are the development and operational
costs?
• Schedule : Constraints on the project schedule and whether they could be reasonably met.

ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY:
Economic analysis could also be referred to as cost/benefit analysis. It is the most frequently used
method for evaluating the effectiveness of a new system. In economic analysis the procedure is to
determine the benefits and savings that are expected from a candidate system and compare them with
costs. Economic feasibility study related to price, and all kinds of expenditure related to the scheme
before the project starts. This study also improves project reliability. It is also helpful for the decision-
makers to decide the planned scheme processed latter or now, depending on the financial condition of

19 | P a g e
the organization. This evaluation process also studies the price benefits of the proposed scheme.
Economic Feasibility also performs the following tasks.
• Cost of packaged software.
• Cost of doing full system study.
• Is the system cost Effective?

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY:
A large part of determining resources has to do with assessing technical feasibility. It considers the
technical requirements of the proposed project. The technical requirements are then compared to the
technical capability of the organization. The systems project is considered technically feasible if the
internal technical capability is sufficient to support the project requirements. The analyst must find out
whether current technical resources can be where the expertise of system analysts is

beneficial, since using their own experience and their contact with vendors they will be able to answer
the question of technical feasibility. Technical Feasibility also performs the following tasks.

• Is the technology available within the given resource constraints?

• Is the technology have the capacity to handle the solution
• Determines whether the relevant technology is stable and established.
• Is the technology chosen for software development has a large number of users so that they
can be consulted when problems arise, or improvements are required?

OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY:
Operational feasibility is a measure of how well a proposed system solves the problems and takes
advantage of the opportunities identified during scope definition and how it satisfies the requirements
identified in the requirements analysis phase of system development. The operational feasibility refers
to the availability of the operational resources needed to extend research results beyond on which they
were developed and for which all the operational requirements are minimal and easily accommodated.
In addition, the operational feasibility would include any rational compromises farmers make in
adjusting the technology to the limited operational resources available to them. The operational
Feasibility also perform the tasks like
• Does the current mode of operation provide adequate response time?
• Does the current of operation make maximum use of resources.
• Determines whether the solution suggested by the software development team is acceptable.

20 | P a g e
 • Does the operation offer an effective way to control the data?
• Our project operates with a processor and packages installed are supported by the system.

3.4 COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS

The financial and the economic questions during the preliminary investigation are verified to estimate
the following:
• The cost of the hardware and software for the class of application being considered.
• The benefits in the form of reduced cost.
• The proposed system will give the minute information, as a result.
• Performance is improved which in turn may be expected to provide increased profits.
• This feasibility checks whether the system can be developed with the available funds.
• This can be done economically if planned judicially, so it is economically feasible.
• The cost of the project depends upon the number of man-hours required

explaining code snippets, and presenting research findings. Furthermore, Jupyter Notebooks can be
easily shared and collaborated on through platforms like GitHub, allowing for reproducible research
and collaborative analysis.

5.3. MODULE DESCRIPTION

PYTHON AND STREAMLIT FRAMEWORK

PyCharm, is a powerful integrated development environment (IDE) specifically designed for Python
development. PyCharm, developed by JetBrains, is a Python IDE renowned for its powerful features
tailored for Python development. It offers advanced code editing tools such as syntax highlighting,
code completion, and refactoring. Integrated with version control systems like Git, PyCharm facilitates
efficient project management. Its intelligent code analysis and debugging capabilities enable quick
error identification and resolution, ensuring application reliability. PyCharm serves as an essential tool
for Python developers, offering a robust environment for writing, testing, and debugging Python code.

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics.

Its high-level built-in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it
very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or glue language to
connect existing components together. Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability
and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which
encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard

26 | P a g e
library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely
distributed.

Python Streamlit is a powerful open-source framework that allows developers to create interactive web
applications with ease. With its simple and intuitive syntax, developers can quickly build data-driven
applications using Python code. Streamlit provides various components and widgets for creating
interactive elements such as buttons, sliders, and charts, making it ideal for building user-friendly
interfaces.

Streamlit App Setup and PDF Processing

The script commences with the importation of essential libraries, including Streamlit for web
application development, PyPDF2 for PDF manipulation, and various modules from the LangChain
library tailored for natural language processing endeavors. Configurations for the Streamlit sidebar are
established to furnish users with pertinent information regarding the application's functionality. The
OpenAI API key is designated as an environment variable to authorize subsequent API requests.
Subsequently, functions for audio recording and conversion are defined, setting the groundwork for
capturing user responses. The main() function orchestrates the setup of the Streamlit application
interface. Within this function, users upload PDF files, which are then parsed and analyzed utilizing
PyPDF2. Text extraction ensues, followed by segmentation into manageable chunks, culminating in
the creation of a vector store using LangChain's FAISS module. Questions pertinent to the PDF
content are generated via an OpenAI language model. Finally, the user interface is updated to
showcase the generated questions, awaiting user input.

Recording and Analyzing User Responses

Upon PDF upload and question generation, the interface prompts users to commence answering
questions sequentially. Each question triggers the initiation of audio recording upon user interaction
with a designated button, leveraging the device's microphone. Recorded audio is subsequently
transcribed into text format using the Google Speech Recognition API. Captured responses are stored
in session state variables for subsequent analysis. Upon completion of all questions, the application
proceeds to analyze user responses. A formulated query facilitates scrutiny of questions and
corresponding answers, yielding scores and areas for improvement for each question-answer pair.
LangChain's question-answering capabilities process the query, presenting findings to the user via the
application interface.

27 | P a g e
 Fig- Module control flow

Error Handling and Overall Application Workflow

The script encompasses robust error handling mechanisms to gracefully navigate exceptions that may
arise during execution. Instances of errors, such as file upload or audio recording mishaps, prompt the
display of informative error messages, preserving a seamless user experience. Throughout the
codebase, various control flow structures, including conditional statements and loops, orchestrate the
application's workflow and handle diverse scenarios adeptly. Modular code architecture enhances
maintainability and readability, facilitating comprehension and modification endeavors. In sum, the
script embodies adept utilization of libraries and tools, such as Streamlit, PyPDF2, and LangChain,
culminating in the development of an interactive and user-centric application tailored for personalized
interview preparation.Error Handling and Overall Application Workflow The script encompasses

In the project, LangChain's LLM (Language Learning Model) plays a crucial role in generating
tailored interview questions based on the content of uploaded resumes. Leveraging advanced natural
language processing techniques, the LLM comprehensively analyzes the textual data to identify
relevant skills and experiences. It then formulates personalized questions to simulate real-world

28 | P a g e
interview scenarios. Additionally, the LLM evaluates user responses, providing constructive feedback
and areas for improvement. By harnessing the power of the LLM, the project enhances interview
preparation by offering dynamic and targeted question-answering interactions, ultimately empowering
users to refine their technical communication skills.

Fig- Implementations

The implementation consists of following modules:

• The PdfReader() class initializes a PdfReader object, allowing the script to read the content of
PDF files.
• The extract_text() method is then utilized to extract text content from individual pages of the
PDF, enabling further processing and analysis
• The load_qa_chain() function is responsible for loading a question-answering chain for
processing documents. This chain is essential for generating responses to user queries based
on the content of the documents provided.
• Similarly, the get_openai_callback() function retrieves an OpenAI callback function, which is
crucial for interacting with OpenAI's API during the question-answering process. These
functions encapsulate complex logic and functionality, enabling streamlined document
processing and response generation.
• The record_audio() function facilitates audio recording for a specified duration using the
sounddevice library and saves the recorded audio to a temporary WAV file. This functionality
is vital for allowing users to provide verbal responses to interview questions, adding an
interactive element to the application.
• Additionally, the convert_audio_to_text() function leverages the Google Speech Recognition

29 | P a g e
 API to convert recorded audio files to text format. This conversion enables seamless
integration of spoken responses into the question-answering workflow.
• The RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter() class initializes a text splitter object designed to break
down text into smaller, manageable chunks. This functionality aids in processing large
volumes of text efficiently, particularly when dealing with lengthy documents such as PDF
files.
• Furthermore, the OpenAIEmbeddings() class initializes an embeddings object used for
handling text embeddings, which are essential for various natural language processing tasks
such as semantic similarity analysis.
• The FAISS.from_texts() method is employed to create a FAISS vector store from the text data
extracted from documents. This vector store facilitates efficient similarity searches and other
vector-based operations, enhancing the performance of the question-answering system.
• Within the Streamlit framework, several functions and widgets are utilized to create the user
interface and manage application state. Functions such as st.file_uploader(), st.header(),
st.write(), st.button(), st.title(), st.empty(), and st.error() are employed to display text, widgets,
and interactive elements on the Streamlit app.
• Additionally, the st.session_state attribute is utilized to access and manage session state
variables, enabling data persistence and user interaction tracking within the application.
Overall, these functionalities contribute to the creation of a user-friendly and interactive
interview preparation tool.

 6. SYSTEM DESIGN

6.1 Introduction to UML

Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a general-purpose modeling language. The main aim of UML is
to define a standard way to visualize the way a system has been designed. It is quite like blueprints
used in other fields of engineering. UML is not a programming language; it is rather a visual language.
We use UML diagrams to portray the behavior and structure of a system. UML helps software
engineers, businessmen and system architects with modeling, design and analysis. The Object
Management Group (OMG) adopted Unified Modelling

Language as a standard in 1997. It's been managed by OMG ever since. International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) published UML as an approved standard in 2005. UML has been revised over
the years and is reviewed periodically.

Why we need UML

• Complex applications need collaboration and planning from multiple teams and hence require
a clear and concise way to communicate amongst them.
• Businessmen do not understand code. So, UML becomes essential to communicate with
nonprogrammers’ essential requirements, functionalities and processes of the system.
• A lot of time is saved down the line when teams can visualize processes, user interactions and
static structure of the system.

UML is linked with object-oriented design and analysis. UML makes the use of elements and forms
associations between them to form diagrams. Diagrams in UML can be broadly classified as:
• Structural Diagrams – Capture static aspects or structure of a system. Structural Diagrams
include Component Diagrams, Object Diagrams, Class Diagrams and Deployment Diagrams.
• Behaviour Diagrams – Capture dynamic aspects or behaviour of the system. Behaviour
diagrams include Use Case Diagrams, State Diagrams, Activity Diagrams and Interaction
Diagrams.

31 | P a g e
 Fig-Building Blocks of UML

6.2 Building Block of the UML

The vocabulary of the UML encompasses three kinds of building blocks:
• Things
• Relationships
• Diagrams

Things are the abstractions that are first-class citizens in a model; relationships tie these things
together; diagrams group interesting collections of things.

Things in the UML

There are four kinds of things in the UML:
• Structural things
• Behavioural things
• Grouping things
• Annotational things

These things are the basic object-oriented building blocks of the UML. You use them to write well-
formed models.

32 | P a g e
Structural Things
Structural things are the nouns of UML models. These are the mostly static parts of a model,
representing elements that are either conceptual or physical. Collectively, the structural things are
called classifiers.

A class is a description of a set of objects that share the same attributes, operations, relationships, and
semantics. A class implements one or more interfaces. Graphically, a class is rendered as a rectangle,
usually including its name, attributes, and operations

Class - A Class is a set of identical things that outlines the functionality and properties of an object. It
also represents the abstract class whose functionalities are not defined. Its notation is as follows

Interface - A collection of functions that specify a service of a class or component, i.e., Externally
visible behavior of that class.

Collaboration - A larger pattern of behaviors and actions. Example: All classes and behaviors that
create the modeling of a moving tank in a simulation.

Use Case - A sequence of actions that a system performs that yields an observable result. Used to
structure behavior in a model. Is realized by collaboration.

33 | P a g e
Component - A physical and replaceable part of a system that implements a number of interfaces.
Example: a set of classes, interfaces, and collaborations.

Node - A physical element existing at run time and represents are source.

Behavioral Things
Behavioral things are the dynamic parts of UML models. These are the verbs of a model, representing
behavior over time and space. In all, there are three primary kinds of behavioral things
• Interaction
• State machine

Interaction
It is a behavior that comprises a set of messages exchanged among a set of objects or roles within a
particular context to accomplish a specific purpose. The behavior of a society of objects or of an
individual operation may be specified with an interaction. An interaction involves a number of other
elements, including messages, actions, and connectors (the connection between objects). Graphically, a
message is rendered as a directed line, almost always including the name of its operation.

34 | P a g e
State machine
State machine is a behaviour that specifies the sequences of states an object or an interaction goes
through during its lifetime in response to events, together with its responses to those events. The
behaviour of an individual class or a collaboration of classes may be specified with a state machine. A
state machine involves a number of other elements, including states, transitions (the flow from state to
state), events (things that trigger a transition), and activities (the response to a transition). Graphically,
a state is rendered as a rounded rectangle, usually including its name and its substates.

Grouping Things
Grouping things can be defined as a mechanism to group elements of a UML model together. There is
only one grouping thing available.

Package − Package is the only one grouping thing available for gathering structural and behavioural
things.

Annotational Things
Annotational things are the explanatory parts of UML models. These are the comments you may apply
to describe, illuminate, and remark about any element in a model. There is one primary kind of
annotation thing, called a note. A note is simply a symbol for rendering constraints and comments
attached to an element or a collection of elements.

Relationships in the UML

35 | P a g e
Relationships are another most important building block of UML. It shows how the elements are
associated with each other and this association describes the functionality of an application.

There are four kinds of relationships in the UML:

• Dependency
• Association
• Generalization
• Realization

Dependency
It is an element (the independent one) that may affect the semantics of the other element (the
dependent one). Graphically, a dependency is rendered as a dashed line, possibly directed, and
occasionally including a label.

Association
Association is basically a set of links that connects the elements of a UML model. It also describes
how many objects are taking part in that relationship.

Generalization
It is a specialization/generalization relationship in which the specialized element (the child) builds on
the specification of the generalized element (the parent). The child shares the structure and the
behavior of the parent. Graphically, a generalization relationship is rendered as a solid line with a
hollow arrowhead pointing to the parent.

Realization
36 | P a g e
Realization can be defined as a relationship in which two elements are connected. One element
describes some responsibility, which is not implemented and the other one implements them. This
relationship exists in case of interfaces.

6.3 UML DIAGRAMS

UML is a modern approach to modeling and documenting software. It is based on diagrammatic
representations of software components. It is the final output, and the diagram represents the system.

UML includes the following

• Class diagram
• Object diagram
• Component diagram
• Composite structure diagram
• Use case diagram
• Sequence diagram
• Communication diagram
• State diagram
• Activity diagram

 8. TESTING

8.1 INTRODUCTION TO TESTING

Software Testing is defined as an activity to check whether the actual results match the expected
results and to ensure that the software system is Defect free. It involves the execution of a software
component or system component to evaluate one or more properties of interest. It is required for
evaluating the system. This phase is the critical phase of software quality assurance and presents the
ultimate view of coding.

Importance of Testing
The importance of software testing is imperative. A lot of times this process is skipped, therefore, the
product and business might suffer. To understand the importance of testing, here are some key points
to explain
• Software Testing saves money
• Provides Security
• Improves Product Quality
• Customer satisfaction

Testing is of different ways The main idea behind the testing is to reduce the errors and do it with a
minimum time and effort.

Benefits of Testing
• Cost-Effective: It is one of the important advantages of software testing. Testing any IT
project on time helps you to save your money for the long term. In case if the bugs caught in
the earlier stage of software testing, it costs less to fix.
• Security: It is the most vulnerable and sensitive benefit of software testing. People are looking
for trusted products. It helps in removing risks and problems earlier.
• Product quality: It is an essential requirement of any software product. Testing ensures a
quality product is delivered to customers.
• Customer Satisfaction: The main aim of any product is to give satisfaction to their customers.
UI/UX Testing ensures the best user experience.

53 | P a g e
Different types of Testing

Unit Testing: Unit tests are very low level, close to the source of your application. They consist in
testing individual methods and functions of the classes, components or modules used by your software.
Unit tests are in general quite cheap to automate and can be run very quickly by a continuous
integration server.

Integration Testing: Integration tests verify that different modules or services used by your
application work well together. For example, it can be testing the interaction with the database or
making sure that microservices work together as expected. These types of tests are more expensive to
run as they require multiple parts of the application to be up and running.

Functional Tests: Functional tests focus on the business requirements of an application. They only
verify the output of an action and do not check the intermediate states of the system when performing
that action. There is sometimes a confusion between integration tests and functional tests as they both
require multiple components to interact with each other. The difference is that an integration test may
simply verify that you can query the database while a functional test would expect to get a specific
value from the database as defined by the product requirements.

Regression Testing: Regression testing is a crucial stage for the product & very useful for the
developers to identify the stability of the product with the changing requirements. Regression testing is
a testing that is done to verify that a code change in the software does not impact the existing
functionality of the product.

System Testing: System testing of software or hardware is testing conducted on a complete integrated
system to evaluate the system’s compliance with its specified requirements. System testing is a series
of different tests whose primary purpose is to fully exercise the computer-based system.

Performance Testing: It checks the speed, response time, reliability, resource usage, scalability of a
software program under their expected workload. The purpose of Performance Testing is not to find
functional defects but to eliminate performance bottlenecks in the software or device.

Alpha Testing: This is a form of internal acceptance testing performed mainly by the in- house
software QA and testing teams. Alpha testing is the last testing done by the test teams at the
development site after the acceptance testing and before releasing the software for the beta test. It can
also be done by the potential users or customers of the application. But still, this is a form of in-house
acceptance testing.

54 | P a g e
Beta Testing: This is a testing stage followed by the internal full alpha test cycle. This is the final
testing phase where the companies release the software to a few external user groups outside the
company test teams or employees. This initial software version is known as the beta version. Most
companies gather user feedback in this release.

Black Box Testing: It is also known as Behavioural Testing, is a software testing method in which the
internal structure/design/implementation of the item being tested is not known to the tester. These tests
can be functional or non-functional, though usually functional.

Fig- BlackBox Testing

This method is named so because the software program, in the eyes of the tester, is like a black box;
inside which one cannot see. This method attempts to find errors in the following categories:
• Incorrect or missing functions
• Interface errors
• Errors in data structures or external database access
• Behaviour or performance errors
• Initialization and termination errors

55 | P a g e
White Box Testing: White box testing (also known as Clear Box Testing, Open Box Testing, Glass
Box Testing, Transparent Box Testing, Code-Based Testing or Structural Testing) is a software testing
method in which the internal structure/design/implementation of the item being tested is known to the
tester. The tester chooses inputs to exercise paths through the code and determines the appropriate
outputs. Programming know-how and the implementation knowledge is essential. White box testing is
testing beyond the user interface and into the nitty-gritty of a system. This method is named so because
the software program, in the eyes of the tester, is like a white/transparent box; inside which one clearly
sees.

 9. CONCLUSION

Our project leverages advanced technologies like LangChain and OpenAI to revolutionize the interview
preparation process. By automating question generation based on resume content and enabling
personalized audio responses, we offer a dynamic and efficient platform for candidates to hone their
interview skills. The seamless integration of machine learning algorithms ensures objectivity, fairness,
and real-time feedback, enhancing the overall interview experience

Both benefits and drawbacks exist with our project. On the positive side, it automates question
generation and response recording, streamlining the interview preparation process. Additionally, it
provides personalized feedback and analysis, enhancing candidate performance and confidence.
However, reliance on machine learning algorithms may introduce biases or inaccuracies in question
generation, impacting the quality of interview practice. Our system may not fully replicate the nuances
of human interaction in interview scenarios, and users should supplement their preparation with real-
world practice and feedback.

The main challenge that we faced while working on this project was the need for internet connectivity
and API access may limit accessibility and usability in certain environments.
