During a Live Interview, the system automatically checks the candidate’s connected audio devices. If more than one microphone is detected, the platform displays a real-time alert notification within the interview interface. This article explains how evaluators are notified when multiple audio input devices are detected on a candidate’s system, what the notification means, and what action (if any) is required.Documentation Index

How is the Evaluator notified?

- A pop-up alert appears inside the Live Interview screen.
- The alert states: “Multiple microphone detected on candidate’s device.”
-
It displays:
- The current microphone in use
- Other connected microphone devices
Note: The Live Interview continues uninterrupted. The notification does not automatically pause or terminate the session. It is a monitoring alert, not a blocking error.
Best Practices
To maintain a secure and fair interview environment:- Review the microphone list when the alert appears.
- Ensure only necessary audio devices are active.
- Follow your organization’s standard interview integrity policy.
