"Blind audition" of resumes about embrace-diverse-representation

[josiemundi]

This is a cool idea! However, it does already exist to some degree. Blind hiring is already something that a number of companies do already. I found a couple of companies that offer recruitment and applicant tracking software that masks certain information from the recruiter that could lead to bias.

I think you would probably need it to be combined with some sort of tool that could run through the entire process, otherwise the bias could potentially just end up being delayed to a later stage.

You could have some sort of tool that informs the recruiter they may be making a biased decision during the process if they discard a candidate cv that has similar skills to another and ask them to validate their decision. This could help make them more accountable for their decisions. Perhaps prompt for data (e.g data from recruitment tests or from cv).
