Use Blind Recruitment in Your Hiring Practices Consider trying blind recruitment, the practice of removing personally identifiable information from the resumes of applicants, including their name, gender, age, education, and even sometimes the number of years of experience. One useful tool to check out is Blendoor.

Develop Talent with Structured Evaluations Once you have acknowledged some your biases, it's time to create an environment that doesn't allow you to gravitate toward shortcuts when interviewing and assessing candidates. Interviews have proven over time to be largely inefficient because they tend to be subject to things like confirmation bias and intuition. In fact, a study by Schmidt and Hunter in 1998 found that job interviews can predict only about 14% of the variability in employee performance.1 Despite this being the case, interviews are still considered to be an essential tool for candidate assessment.

Using structured criteria for decision making leads to more accurate evaluations.2 Make sure to conduct structured interviews based on hiring criteria that are relevant to the job. Structured processes for recording observations increase accuracy and reduce bias.3 Structure provides consistency, which enables a fair comparison of fit for a job.
