Consent Laws by State (US), UK and EU<\/h1><p class=\"vx-lead\">In the US, recording a job interview you take part in is legal under federal law with the consent of one party \u2014 you. But eleven states require every participant&#8217;s consent, and a remote interview can involve two states at once. In the UK and the EU, the recording is personal data: you need a lawful basis, a clear notice and a retention period. The safe rule everywhere is the same: tell the candidate at the start, say why, and record the consent.<\/p>\n<div class=\"vx-btns vx-t\"><a class=\"vx-btn vx-btn--ink\" href=\"https:\/\/app.voicit.com\/signup\">Try Voicit free<\/a><a class=\"vx-btn vx-btn--ghost\" href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/alvaroarres\/voicitcall\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Book a demo<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"vx-proof vx-t\"><span class=\"vx-google\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M22.56 12.25c0-.78-.07-1.53-.2-2.25H12v4.26h5.92a5.06 5.06 0 01-2.2 3.32v2.77h3.57c2.08-1.92 3.28-4.74 3.28-8.1z\" fill=\"#4285F4\"\/><path d=\"M12 23c2.97 0 5.46-.98 7.28-2.66l-3.57-2.77c-.98.66-2.23 1.06-3.71 1.06-2.86 0-5.29-1.93-6.16-4.53H2.18v2.84C3.99 20.53 7.7 23 12 23z\" fill=\"#34A853\"\/><path d=\"M5.84 14.09c-.22-.66-.35-1.36-.35-2.09s.13-1.43.35-2.09V7.07H2.18C1.43 8.55 1 10.22 1 12s.43 3.45 1.18 4.93l2.85-2.22.81-.62z\" fill=\"#FBBC05\"\/><path d=\"M12 5.38c1.62 0 3.06.56 4.21 1.64l3.15-3.15C17.45 2.09 14.97 1 12 1 7.7 1 3.99 3.47 2.18 7.07l3.66 2.84c.87-2.6 3.3-4.53 6.16-4.53z\" fill=\"#EA4335\"\/><\/svg>4.8 out of 5 <span class=\"vx-stars\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;<\/span> 350+ reviews<\/span><span class=\"vx-upd\">Updated: August 2026<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"vx-hero-vis\"><div class=\"vx-mock vx-r\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><div class=\"vx-mock-bar\"><i><\/i><i><\/i><i><\/i><span>Interview recording<\/span><em>Duration 12:48<\/em><\/div><div class=\"vx-mock-body\"><div class=\"vx-tl\" style=\"--d:80ms\"><span class=\"vx-spk vx-spk--i\">Interviewer<\/span><span class=\"vx-tl-b\"><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:78%\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vx-ts\">00:00<\/span><\/div><div class=\"vx-tl\" style=\"--d:170ms\"><span class=\"vx-spk vx-spk--k\">Candidate<\/span><span class=\"vx-tl-b\"><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:94%\"><\/span><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:61%\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vx-ts\">00:09<\/span><\/div><div class=\"vx-tl\" style=\"--d:260ms\"><span class=\"vx-spk vx-spk--i\">Interviewer<\/span><span class=\"vx-tl-b\"><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:52%\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vx-ts\">00:41<\/span><\/div><div class=\"vx-tl\" style=\"--d:350ms\"><span class=\"vx-spk vx-spk--k\">Candidate<\/span><span class=\"vx-tl-b\"><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:90%\"><\/span><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:84%\"><\/span><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:37%\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vx-ts\">00:48<\/span><\/div><div class=\"vx-tl\" style=\"--d:440ms\"><span class=\"vx-spk vx-spk--k\">Candidate<\/span><span class=\"vx-tl-b\"><span class=\"vx-sk\" style=\"width:66%\"><\/span><i class=\"vx-cursor\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"vx-ts\">01:32<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class=\"vx-trust\"><div class=\"vx-wrap\"><p class=\"vx-trust-t\">Chosen by over 1,000 companies to document their interviews<\/p><div class=\"vx-logos\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Telefonica_2021_logo-1.png\" alt=\"Telef\u00f3nica\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/deloitte-logo-1.png\" alt=\"Deloitte\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/PcComponentes-1.png\" alt=\"PcComponentes\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2560px-Mahou-san_miguel_logo-1.png\" alt=\"Mahou San Miguel\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/brandty_gris.webp\" alt=\"Brandty\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo\"><img src=\"https:\/\/voicit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/logo_ieteam_grises_.webp\" alt=\"ieTeam\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"vx-logo vx-logo--tall\"><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class=\"vx-sec vx-intro\"><div class=\"vx-wrap\"><div class=\"vx-intro-in\"><p class=\"vx-statement vx-t\">Recording interviews is the single best way to stop interviewer notes from being reconstructions \u2014 but the first question every HR team asks is whether it is allowed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"vx-more\"><p class=\"vx-t\">The answer depends on where the interviewer and the candidate are, and the rules are less complicated than they look once you separate three questions: can you record, what do you have to tell the candidate, and what happens to the file afterwards.

State law can be stricter. The states below require the consent of everyone on the call for a private conversation; for a remote interview, the conservative reading is that you need consent if either the interviewer or the candidate is in one of them.

First, the candidate may be in an all-party state, and you often do not know where they are sitting. Second, a candidate who discovers a secret recording later is a reputational and legal risk far bigger than the recording itself.<\/p><p class=\"vx-t\">Third, once the file is processed with AI, transcribed and stored, privacy laws such as California&#8217;s CCPA\/CPRA give the candidate rights over it regardless of consent rules. Fourth, it changes nothing in practice: told that the interview is recorded so that notes are accurate, virtually every candidate says yes. Structured interviews with recordings are also easier to defend in a discrimination claim than interviewer memory.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section class=\"vx-sec\" id=\"sec-4\"><div class=\"vx-wrap\"><div class=\"vx-split\"><div class=\"vx-side vx-t\"><p class=\"vx-eyebrow\"><i>04<\/i><\/p><h2>United Kingdom: UK GDPR, the ICO and the Employment Practices Code<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"vx-main\"><p class=\"vx-t\">In the UK, recording a job interview is not prohibited, but the recording is personal data under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

The ICO&#8217;s guidance on employment practices is explicit that covert recording of candidates is very unlikely to be justified.
