Note: Our interview process for all final-round candidates requires a mandatory in-person interview or a live, scheduled video conference with the hiring manager. We do not conduct interviews via instant messaging or text. All communications during the application process will come from individuals within our HR department via their Recorded Future email address., We collect personal data about candidates from the following sources:

- if applicable, the recruitment agency
- CSI, our background check provider, from which we collect the following categories of data:
- Address History;
- Information about Criminal Convictions and Offences;
- Educational Attainment;
- Employment History;
- Government ID Verification; and
- Litigation History
- How we will use information about you We will use the personal data we collect about you to:
- assess your skills, qualifications, and suitability for the role;
- carry out background and reference checks, where applicable;
- communicate with you about the recruitment process;
- keep records related to our hiring processes; and
- comply with legal or regulatory requirements. It is in our legitimate interests to decide whether to appoint you since it would be beneficial to our business to appoint a suitable candidate to that role. We also need to process your personal data to decide whether to enter into a contract of employment or engagement with you. Having received your CV and covering letter and/or your application form, we will then process that information to decide whether you meet the basic requirements to be shortlisted for the role. If you do, we will decide whether your application is strong enough to invite you for an interview. If we decide to call you for an interview, we will use the information you provide to us at the interview to decide whether to offer you the role. If we decide to offer you the role, we will then take up references before confirming your appointment.

If you fail to provide personal data If you fail to provide information when requested, which is necessary for us to consider your application (such as evidence of qualifications or work history), we will not be able to process your application successfully. For example, if we require a background check or references for this role and you fail to provide us with relevant details, we will not be able to take your application further.

Information about criminal convictions We envisage that we will process information about criminal convictions for your role. We will collect information about your criminal convictions history if we would like to offer you the role (conditional on checks and any other conditions, such as references, being satisfactory). We carry out a criminal records check in order to satisfy ourselves that there is nothing in your criminal convictions history which makes you unsuitable for the role. In particular:
- It is contractually required by many of our customers to perform background checks on our employees;
- It is required by both security certification organizations SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, to which we subscribe; and
- The role for which you have applied requires a high degree of trust and integrity since it may involve dealing with a number of sensitive public sector contracts, which necessitate increased due diligence with our employees and so we would like to ask you to seek a basic disclosure of your criminal records history.
