Merra
Merra is a web-based practice tool for spoken job and visa interviews.
What Merra is
Merra is a web-based practice tool for spoken job and visa interviews. Its AI interviewer asks follow-up questions and scores each answer out of 100. Practice can use a candidate’s role, CV, target companies, or visa interview type, including UK pre-CAS and US visa examples. Coach mode gives feedback after each response, Interview mode saves notes until the session ends, and Beast mode challenges weak answers. Scoring criteria vary by interview type: job sessions can assess structure, communication, and problem-solving, while visa sessions can consider genuine intent and financial credibility. A free diagnostic and one practice interview are available until used, with no card required. Each mock receives a free score and top fix. The one-off Practice Pack costs $6, paid once, adds credits, and unlocks a full Coach report with per-answer scores, rewrites, transcript, recording, and prep sheet. Merra Ai Ltd identifies itself as the data controller for personal data used in Merra Practice.
