Fika Jobs raises $4M for AI video interviews
Stockholm-based Fika Jobs raised $4M to build a video-first hiring platform where AI agents interview candidates.
AI hiring is moving beyond resume screening into the interview itself. Fika Jobs’ raise shows how quickly recruitment workflows are being rebuilt around agents, video and structured candidate profiles.
What happened
Stockholm-based Fika Jobs raised a $4M pre-seed round to build a video-first hiring platform where AI agents interview candidates.
The round was led by Luminar Ventures, with participation from Alliance VC and King co-founders Sebastian Knutsson and Riccardo Zacconi. Candidates connect LinkedIn, answer AI-generated interview questions, and the platform turns those responses into short video profiles for employers.
Why it matters
This is a clean AI workflow story, but with real bias risk.
AI interview automation could help non-traditional candidates show communication skills and personality beyond a CV. But video also exposes race, age, gender, accent and appearance earlier in the hiring funnel, making fairness and auditability very important.
The bigger picture
Recruitment AI is becoming more than keyword matching. The next wave of HR tech will need to prove it can improve hiring efficiency without quietly scaling old biases in a more polished format.
