Bias in recruiting isn't just unfair, it's also bad for business. Bias in the recruiting process means many employers miss out on top talent simply because they're not seeing the full picture. Most organizations focus their anti-bias efforts on the interview stage, but the real damage happens much earlier in the process. With AI as a new complicating factor, how can we properly address bias and make recruiting fairer for everyone?

My guest this week is Bas van de Haterd, recruiting polymath and also now co-founder of TA Audit Institute. As usual, Bas brings a vast amount of data and research to the conversation. In our discussion, we explore where bias really lives in the process, why current solutions miss the mark, and what the future of recruiting could look like.

In the interview, we discuss:

  • The impact of biased hiring on employers
  • How most bias happens at the start of the recruiting process
  • Why current approaches to eliminating bias aren't working
  • Research findings on gender bias
  • Job experience versus job knowledge
  • Open hiring
  • Does AI make things better or worse?
  • Potential solutions
  • What does the future look like?
