The Marketing Rules Podcast

Interview bias takes many forms, from affinity bias to accent bias and with most biases we can be totally unaware that we are making them and the results will affect the candidate, the interviewer and the employer.

Talking to James this week is Michael Blakley, founder of Equitas.

Michael discusses how to be conscious of biases during the interview process and the part that technology now plays in creating an anti-bias interview.
