🚨Prevent bias and unconcious bias in Recruitment🚨 In 2021, 60% of employers were penalized for biased hiring. That year, TAFEP handled over 400 biased hiring cases as well. Today, we easily fall victim to unconcious bias in our recruitment and most of the time, we are not even aware of it. To prevent that, Teamtailor has Anonymous mode! This mode removes all personal information from the candidates profile to ensure your team is safe from bias! More about it here : https://lnkd.in/gHc_vCtp Curious to know more?
