I was asked to be recorded answering three stupid questions like "what motivates you?", "why do you want to work here?" etc. before attending a multi-stage interview. I never got invited to that interview, and I did wonder if I could take them to court, because my CV showed me as good fit for the job (literally ticked all the boxes), but they clearly rejected me based on the video. (In case you wonder why I thought I was a good fit, I can tell you that I built the tech they were implementing.
