FENBI (02469) announced on October 30 that it will soon launch a new AI-powered interview preparation product targeting candidates applying for state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and central government-affiliated enterprises. This move marks FENBI's expansion from civil service exam preparation to comprehensive job interview coaching, further solidifying its ecosystem in vocational education.

China's graduate population continues to grow, with the Ministry of Education projecting 12.22 million graduates in 2025 - a record high representing an increase of 430,000 year-over-year. Third-party spring recruitment surveys indicate SOEs have become graduates' top employment choice, reflecting the prevailing stability-seeking mentality in the job market.

Annual SOE recruitment positions total approximately 1 million, with 80% targeting fresh graduates, creating a potential user base exceeding 4 million. This has driven significant growth in demand for professional coaching services. Many job seekers now require structured, specialized guidance extending from written exams to interview preparation.

FENBI previously launched AI-powered interview evaluation products for civil service exams and teaching qualification interviews, both well-received by users. By October 2025, FENBI's AI interview evaluation system had assisted 320,000 users with 4.32 million interview assessments, peaking at 114,000 daily evaluations.

The new SOE-focused AI interview product leverages FENBI's proprietary vertical AI model technology to provide immersive, personalized, and professional full-process interview coaching. The system features: 1) An extensive SOE interview question database 2) Highly realistic online simulation of actual interview processes 3) 1:1 recreation of SOE interview scenarios

The product addresses key pain points of traditional interview coaching - high costs and limited practice opportunities. Unlike generic evaluation tools, FENBI's solution offers: - Layered analysis of core SOE evaluation criteria (political awareness, job fit, logical expression) - Personalized recommendations based on individual response patterns - Custom model answers generated from users' personal backgrounds and position requirements

This represents FENBI's sixth intelligent preparation product launched in 2025, following successful releases including civil service AI question banks, institutional recruitment AI systems, AI smart speakers, intensive question banks, and teaching qualification interview evaluation systems. Following 2026 national civil service exam registration announcements, FENBI's AI question bank system achieved single-day sales exceeding 14,000 units.

Since 2020, FENBI's AI applications have served over 15 million users. This rapid expansion builds upon the company's decade-long educational research, user learning data from hundreds of millions, and sustained technology investment. The new product demonstrates FENBI's AI capabilities in cross-scenario adaptation, effectively reducing marginal R&D costs for new products while improving implementation efficiency.

FENBI is expanding its AI interview applications as part of broader career development services. The company currently has two additional products in development: 1) AI-powered job search tools for social recruitment 2) AI interactive foreign language learning systems

Both products are undergoing internal incubation and will be launched sequentially, further extending FENBI's services along users' professional development lifecycle.
