"Even well-meaning people sometimes skew their hiring judgements unconsciously, because of shortcuts our brains have internalized over a long period of time. Blind auditions are key to eliminating implicit hiring bias."

So will this only work if you never perform an in-person interview?


The most biases typically exist in selecting sourcing channels and the subsequent shortlist of resumes.

Like "The Voice", it's the initial filters that need more calibrating.
