đŁ BrightHireâs Compliance Check helps your organization identify potential compliance risks in interview conversations and support fair, consistent hiring practices at scale.
When Compliance Check is enabled, BrightHire reviews interviews for specific candidate statements and interviewer questions. Any detected content is added to the Compliance Check Log, where authorized users can review it and confirm that it was identified correctly.
Permissions - Site Admin and Recruiters who have the View Redacted Interview Content permission under Roles & Policies.
For supported candidate topics, you can also enable redaction. When redaction is turned on, the sensitive information is removed from the interview transcript, audio, and video.
Why use Compliance Check?
Compliance Check helps your team:
Protect candidates by preventing sensitive information shared during an interview from being reviewed or considered afterward.
Support interviewers by identifying questions that may present a higher compliance risk and highlighting coaching opportunities.
Gain visibility across your organization by keeping flagged content in one centralized log.
It can be a helpful addition to interviewer training and spot-checking, giving Talent Acquisition leaders a clearer view of when sensitive topics come up and the context around them.
How it works:
When the Compliance Check feature is enabled, all interviews undergo a process to detect high-risk statements. Any identified statements will also be redacted from interview recordings, transcripts, and search results. All flagged statements from interviews will be logged in the Risk Detection log.

â FAQ:
Does Compliance Check apply to past interviews?
No. Compliance Check only applies to interviews that take place after the feature and relevant settings are enabled. It does not process interviews retroactively.

Compliance Check currently supports English-language transcripts only.
Can admins receive a notification when content is flagged or redacted?
Not currently. BrightHire does not send notifications when content is flagged or redacted.
Can I generate a report of flagged or redacted information?
Reporting is not currently available. You can review flagged content at a glance from the Compliance Check Log.
Are any topics not compatible with redaction?
Yes. High-risk interviewer questions are flagged in the Compliance Check Log, but they are never redacted.
