If there is any 'decision' being made with that screening, you can't run this with GDPR. You can't have the 'machine' make a life-impacting decision such as employing someone, there is no 'explainability', no re-do by a human. Someone with time to spare can ramp up your legal costs in court, and they won't have to pay a dime/cent even if they lose.. because GDPR (also the EUDPS's people will have a party on your expense).

Also considering that your 'AI' collects and processes, voice, name, PII, perhaps financial data, etc... good luck with the DPIA!

You raise excellent points about GDPR compliance. Just to clarify - Prepin is a mock interview practice platform, not an actual hiring tool. Users practice with our AI to prepare for real interviews, so no employment decisions are being made. That said, you're absolutely right about data processing concerns - we still handle voice, PII, etc. during practice sessions. We'd definitely benefit from your expertise on proper GDPR compliance for AI-powered interview practice tools.

Would love to discuss the regulatory landscape further - please reach out to [email protected] when you have a chance.
