In a world where bias in the hiring process is proven to limit opportunities, particularly among minority groups, Braintrust AIR stands out as a groundbreaking solution. Leveraging state-of-the-art AI technology, trained with extensive human input and proprietary recruiting data, Braintrust AIR ensures the hiring process is fair, efficient, and devoid of unconscious biases.

 

Human Bias vs. AI Objectivity

 

Humans, by nature, have inherent biases. However, Braintrust AIR operates differently. Our patent-pending AI technology does not factor in personally identifiable information (PII) when ranking, matching, or interviewing candidates. Instead, it focuses purely on discrete skills relevant to job requirements, work samples, and history. This objectivity ensures that every candidate has a fair chance based solely on their professional capabilities.

 

Comprehensive Candidate Screening

 

Jobs today receive thousands of applicants, and traditional recruitment processes often stop reviewing candidates when they find a handful deemed "good enough." This is purely due to human bandwidth limitations. Braintrust AIR, in contrast, evaluates every single application. Asynchronous AI video interviewing technology evaluates the candidate’s responses and enables companies to review more candidates than traditional methods would allow. This opens doors for a diverse range of candidates, including those who might not typically make it past the initial screening due to conventional biases or a resume review alone.

 

Transparency and Objectivity

 

Our asynchronous interview platform allows clients to efficiently engage with all candidates who meet the job criteria. Braintrust AIR reduces the reliance on subjective human judgment, focusing instead on concrete skills and work experiences derived from interview transcripts. The outcome is a detailed summary explaining why each candidate was selected or not, based on clearly defined, unbiased criteria and assists the hiring manager in making an informed decision. The scoring criteria and detailed feedback are also shared with the candidate to ensure transparency and objectivity and actionable feedback that coaches the candidate for the next interview. 

 

Global Reach and Diversity

 

Unlike traditional recruitment methods that rely on biased personal networks, engrained affinities to people who look like you or traditionally have held that role, the Braintrust Network is made up of over 900,000 professionals from more than 150 countries, enabling organizations to access a wide talent pool.

 

Compliance and Regulation

 

Regulators are racing to keep up with AI's advancements, instituting new laws to ensure the technology is used responsibly. Perhaps most notably, New York City implemented an anti-bias law requiring employers who use AI in hiring to conduct bias audits. 

 

Braintrust AIR is designed with these regulations in mind. While our platform significantly enhances the efficiency, transparency and fairness of the recruitment process, it is crucial to note that Braintrust AIR is not the ultimate decision-maker in hiring. Humans remain an indispensable part of our process. Our technology enriches the top of the recruitment funnel, providing a well-vetted pool of candidates based on unbiased, AI-driven insights. However, the final hiring decisions rest with the person hiring, ensuring that personal touch and judgment are at the core of every hiring decision. This hybrid approach not only adheres to legal standards but also respects the value of human insight in making final employment decisions.

 

Conclusion

 

Braintrust AIR is more than just a tool; it's a paradigm shift in recruitment. We help organizations find the best talent worldwide by eliminating bias and assisting the hiring manager in making the right skill-based hire for the job. Choose Braintrust AIR for a fairer, more effective hiring process.
