# Record a non-hiring meeting

> How Hirify recognizes meetings that aren't interviews and skips the candidate analysis

Not every recording is an interview. A client check-in, a team debrief, or an internal meeting can be recorded through the same channels (video meeting, in person, or upload) without producing a candidate analysis that would make no sense. Hirify detects these meetings and adapts what it generates.

## How detection works

Classification is automatic. After transcription, Hirify looks at the content of the conversation and decides whether it's a hiring interview or a meeting. When in doubt, the recording is treated as an interview.

Some cases never go through detection:

* **An interview linked to an application** in your ATS is always treated as an interview.
* **A manual choice** is final. A recording you reclassified yourself will never be reclassified automatically again.

## What a meeting gets

A meeting keeps most of the processing, without the candidate part:

* **Notes suited to a meeting**: the **Meeting notes** template organizes the summary into context and participants, topics discussed, decisions, and action items. You can regenerate the notes with another template if you prefer.
* **The transcript and Key takeaways**: available as for an interview.
* **No candidate analysis**: the Analysis panel shows **No analysis generated**, with the reason for the classification.
* **No ATS transfer**: nothing is offered for sending to your ATS.

A meeting also stays out of your interview statistics, Sourcing, and candidate history.

## Spot meetings in the list

In the list of recordings, a meeting has the **Meeting** badge. The **Category** filter lets you show only interviews or only meetings.

## Reclassify a meeting as an interview

If a recording classified as a meeting was actually an interview, open its page. A **Non-hiring meeting** banner flags it at the top of the page.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click Analyze anyway">
    The button is in the banner, and also in the **Analysis** panel.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Let the analysis run again">
    The recording is reclassified as an interview and the full processing starts over: candidate analysis, signals, and ATS panel.
  </Step>
</Steps>

This reclassification is final. The recording won't switch back to a meeting automatically.

## Turn off detection

An administrator can turn off detection for the whole organization. In **Settings → Integrations**, under **Non-hiring meetings**, turn off **Automatic detection**. All recordings then go through the standard interview processing.

## Good to know

* Detection is on by default.
* On the page of a recording classified as a meeting, the **Analysis** panel shows whether the classification was automatic or manual.
* The channel makes no difference. A meeting recorded in a video call, in person, or by upload is handled the same way.
