Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Sep 18

en PeopleX AI Interview is a conversational AI interview service provided by en PeopleX Inc. through OEM of PeopleX Inc.'s PeopleX AI Interview. Its first documented public-sector use is the Ibaraki Prefectural Board of Education, which will use it to recruit principals for integrated junior and senior high schools and high schools. The service launches August 3, 2026. In that deployment the AI conducts interviews but does not decide pass or fail; hiring managers make the final decisions. The board's stated aim is to draw out candidates from diverse backgrounds, including the private sector, without requiring teaching licenses.

The second thread is a planned connection to recruitment operations software. PeopleX Inc. said it will begin API integration between PeopleX AI Interview and RPM, the recruitment management system run by Zeku Inc. The two systems will pass data automatically so the flow from application receipt to interview, evaluation, and selection result management runs without manual synchronization. PeopleX says the integration is scheduled to be provided sometime in 2026 and may change with development status.

Together the two stories point to the same direction: the AI interview is being plugged into hiring pipelines rather than used as a standalone step. In Ibaraki it sits inside a public recruitment process where humans still decide outcomes; with RPM the plan is for candidate data to move into the tracking system recruiters already screen in. Coverage does not yet show either deployment running at scale.
