PhoenixNest-Video is an evidence‑grounded multimodal agent designed for automated video interview assessment. It constructs a semantic video graph as working memory, retrieves information conditioned on rubrics across visual, audio, and textual streams, and outputs per‑criterion scores tied to the candidate’s materials. Trained with rubric‑based reinforcement learning, the system achieves 91.50% grade‑level accuracy on VInterview‑2025, outperforming larger proprietary models while providing traceable evidence for each score.

arXiv:2606. 11930v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predicting psychological traits from asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) is a challenging problem in AI-assisted interview assessment because labeled datasets are limited while each response contains high-dimensional visual, acoustic, and verbal signals.

The paper introduces ReTurn, a benchmark of 7,000 multimodal tasks designed to evaluate how models selectively use conversational history. ReTurn includes pairs that test task-carrying history (Reconfirm/Reground) and evidence-carrying history (Retrieve/Rebind), each preserving the same target question, media, and answer. Experiments on 13 vision‑language and audio‑language models show a drop in open‑ended accuracy from 93.7% to 72.3% when history is involved, revealing that high question recall does not guarantee effective task application and that competing media can misdirect responses.

EgoArgus is a new, human‑annotated dataset that tests visual‑language models (VLMs) as situational assistants in five everyday dialogue‑video scenarios. It evaluates how well VLMs understand and decide when to intervene, especially when visual and textual cues are helpful, irrelevant, or conflicting. The study finds that current VLMs still struggle to reliably act as egocentric assistants and that existing modality‑bias mitigation methods offer limited improvement.
