Hiring Getting Glitched?

Imagine this: your company rolls out a shiny new AI hiring tool.

It’s fast, efficient, and saves money.

But then, something strange happens.

You notice certain groups of candidates aren’t getting hired.

Could the AI be unintentionally biased?

Here’s what could be happening:

• AI is trained on biased data, favouring some candidates over others.

• Certain demographics may be unintentionally overlooked.

• HR teams might not even realize it’s happening.

So, what can you do?

• Stick with a flawed system that’s fast but unfair? Or…

• Be curious. Ask the tough questions and investigate the AI’s decisions.

• Uncover hidden biases by digging into the data.

• Ensure fairness by making AI work for everyone, not just a select few.

what’s the takeaway?

AI can be a game-changer for hiring, but only if we keep it in check.
