Yes. Tab changes are one of the 20 integrity signals Hyring Meet checks on every interview, grouped with multiple-voice detection under audio and screen monitoring. If a candidate moves away from the interview window during the call, it is registered as an anomaly or unusual activity.
What the flag looks like to you afterwards. Integrity signals sit in the AI report next to the rest of the interview record - the technical and communication scores, the per-skill ratings, the sentiment timeline, the transcript and the recording. Across Hyring's reports, each signal is presented as a straightforward pass or concern whether the behaviour was normal or there was a potential issue like unauthorised assistance. You won't be reading raw logs.
What to do with it. Treat it as a pointer into the recording, not a conclusion. The report holds the full recording and a speaker-separated, time-stamped transcript, so a flag can be checked against what was happening at that moment - a candidate pulling up a portfolio you asked for looks nothing like one reading answers.
What it does it notice. The signal records that focus left the interview window. And also what apps were opened and running during that time.
Read it alongside the other signals. A single tab change on its own carries very little weight. The same flag next to a multiple-voice signal and a lip-sync issue is a different picture entirely, which is why all 20 signals are reported together rather than rolled into one integrity verdict. You should judge the pattern, and not the individual events.
Worth setting up front. If a role genuinely requires a candidate to open documentation, a portfolio or their own notes, say so at the start of the interview and note it on your scorecard. It saves your panel interpreting a flag that you authorised - and it keeps your treatment of candidates consistent, which matters if a decision is ever questioned.
