The interview process, if not managed correctly, leaves you wide open to biases that impact how you conduct the interview and the hiring decisions you make.
From our experience, when managers are asked: “what screening criteria is important for this role?” they, more often than not, do a quick shortcut and tend to emphasise the “technical skills” required in the role. Technical skills give a level of control for managers and recruiters to screen candidates in or out of the process. They actually make the job of screening candidates a lot easier.
