3 things cost schools and language centres. We built Flowmingo to fix each one.
The school that replies first usually gets the good teacher.
How Flowmingo solves it
Candidates are automatically invited to an AI interview right after applying. From invite to completion: just 26 minutes on average.
Once a weak teacher is in front of a class, the whole term is at risk.
How Flowmingo solves it
Ask for a short lesson with Showcase: the applicant shares their screen and teaches a topic you choose. You get the recording and the transcript.
Your panel hired on one video call, then said “Great interview, but they can't teach.”
How Flowmingo solves it
Every applicant comes with a scored CV, an interview video, a transcript and written reasons for each score. You know who is worth a demo lesson before you book one.
Where these come from: ISC Research on international school recruitment (2023), a study of teacher hiring in Washington DC public schools (Journal of Public Economics, 2018), and Sheffield Hallam and Brighton universities' study of schools hiring teachers from abroad (2018).
One free platform for the whole hire, not just the interview.
Use one or all of them on every applicant. You get one ranked shortlist.

Prices in USD. Scores and transcripts are kept on every plan.
Don't take our word for it. Hear it from other hiring teams.
“I used Flowmingo when I had 250+ candidates who had applied and I had to close the role in 3 days.”
Davin PatelHead HR, Unilights
“The AI CV analysis, AI interview, and candidate feedback help us screen applicants more efficiently and save considerable time during the initial selection process.”
AI interviews, CV scoring, tests and the applicant tracker are free on every plan, with no limit and no card. On a free interview, candidates see Flowmingo's name next to yours and may be offered optional paid extras for themselves, such as a practice run. To remove both, pay $0.49 per interview. Paid plans add your logo, downloads and longer video storage.
Can I hear how a teacher speaks and explains?
Yes. The AI asks each question out loud and the applicant answers on camera, so you hear them explain in their own words. Make clear explanation one of the skills you score.
Does it replace the demo lesson?
No. It tells you who is worth one. Your panel watches the recording first, then uses the demo lesson to see the teaching itself.
Can teachers in other countries take it?
Yes. They answer in a phone or laptop browser, in their own time, with nothing to install. Taking it never costs them anything.
Can the questions fit our subject and age group?
Yes. The AI drafts the questions from your job description, and you edit them. Add the subject, the age group and a classroom moment, like a student who is stuck.
Will teachers find an AI interview robotic?
The AI asks each question out loud and follows up when an answer misses the point. It helps to tell applicants a person, not the AI, decides who moves forward.
Does the AI decide who we hire?
No. The AI never rejects anyone. Every score has a written reason, with the recording and transcript behind it, and your panel decides.
Can the principal and heads of department see the same applicant?
Yes. Add them all at no cost: team seats are unlimited on every plan. They see the same video, scores and reasons, and can add notes and ratings.
Does Flowmingo check qualifications, references or safeguarding?
No. There is no ID, licence, reference or background check; those stay with your school. Flowmingo does flag cheating signs during the interview, such as a second window or an extra face on camera.
Which languages can applicants use?
You choose the languages each post allows, and each applicant picks one, including Vietnamese, English, Chinese, Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Spanish and Arabic. The report can be in another language, so a teacher answers in Vietnamese while your panel reads in English.
Does it work with the system we already use?
Yes. Paste the interview link into the emails you already send, or connect by API and webhooks, on the Free plan. No applicant tracker? One is included, free.
