> As an interviewer I would strictly reply that I need to write down my notes from the interview, review and analyze them, and compare notes in the debrief session before I will develop any type of feedback, positive or negative.

And everybody will know that you either seriously lack substance or that you are clearly lying.

Nobody except bitter / insecure people would think that. Everybody knows this is just how the hiring world works and random individual interviewers are not free to choose moralistic ideals about feedback.

That’s not being unmoralistic. That’s severely lacking social skills.

You can say whatever you want to the interviewee because if that goes to court it’s their word against yours. That works both ways of course, but at least allows people to say whatever they really mean rather than keeping someone in ignorant bliss.

That being said it only applies to countries where recording someone against their will is illegal.

That’s a very unfair take. Many interview protocols specifically mention not discussing the candidates performance with the candidate
