Recording Reasons

Written by Jennifer Steinker

Reasons BrightHire will record:

Reasons BrightHire DID record / was scheduled to record (triggers)
- Admin force import: an admin manually forced BrightHire to process/import it.
- Calendar: imported from a user’s calendar sync.
- Calendar Keyword: imported because the event title matched a saved keyword.
- Email: scheduled because BrightHire was emailed/invited.

- Homepage: someone scheduled it from the BrightHire homepage.
- Interview Assistant: someone clicked “Interview with BrightHire” to start it.
- Manual: manually scheduled (outside auto-join rules).
- Position: auto-join rules for the position applied.
- User Level import: user-level settings caused it to be scheduled.
- Virtual onsite: scheduled as a multi-session/onsite format (still depends on the above rules).

Reasons BrightHire may NOT record:


- Opt-out candidate / Someone opted out: the candidate didn’t consent, so BrightHire won’t record.


- Opt-out interviewer: an interviewer has opted out, so BrightHire won’t record their interviews (per org policy).

- Excluded User: an admin excluded that interviewer from being recorded.

- Excluded Stage: the interview stage is on the org’s excluded list, so it’s skipped.

- Excluded stage keyword: the stage/title matched an excluded keyword, so it’s skipped.

- Calendar keyword turned off: the keyword that previously triggered recording was removed/disabled.

- Position Turned off: auto-join is disabled for that role/position.

- User level import turned off: the user’s personal setting says “don’t record.”

- User level only my interviews: user only records interviews where they’re an interviewer (others won’t be captured).

- No Active BrightHire User: no active BH user is eligible to trigger/join for this interview.

- No BrightHire User: none of the interviewers are BrightHire users, so there’s no eligible anchor.

- In-person Interview: Requires enablement on the BrightHire side.

-Zoom Setting Issues: Not added to the 3rd pty recording group in Zoom.
