As firms increasingly rely on artificial intelligence-driven hiring platforms, many highly qualified candidates are finding themselves on the cutting room floor.

an AI resume screener had been trained on CVs of employees already at the firm, giving people extra marks if they listed “baseball” or “basketball” – hobbies that were linked to more successful staff, often men. Those who mentioned “softball” – typically women – were downgraded.

Marginalised groups often “fall through the cracks, because they have different hobbies, they went to different schools”

    No lol

    The job is producing usable work

    The interview is getting the opportunity to get paid for producing usable work.

      And I’m pretty doubtful that OP would be capable of producing usable work. He says it himself, he’s being deceptive about his abilities.

        No that’s your prejudice about what he says.

        He doesn’t comment on anything past interviewing. You don’t know his opinion on if he can produce usable work.

        You haven’t said anything to rebut my statement that attaining work and completing work are different thing.

        Idgaf what you doubt unless you can give some narrative that lends it credibility.
