Our Science

Support fair hiring

Hiring should be fair—and backed by science. While hiring AI may be new, the rigor behind it isn’t. Our innovative models are built on decades of science and over 80 million interviews.

Science backed hiring experience
“We've added an ethics department to the organization to make sure we're helping to create a diverse environment that welcomes everyone. I feel like HireVue takes that task and that work off of my plate and allows me to rely on the technology to meet that standard. ”

Consistency of AI machine learning

Consistency counts. While humans try to be consistent, they are inherently inconsistent. Machines, however, are consistent by design. Everyone is treated equally in a HireVue assessment: Candidates respond to the same questions, play the same games, and receive the same amount of time to prepare and answer. And, with ethically-designed algorithms, candidates’ responses are evaluated against identical criteria, every time.

Watch How.

Building on a foundation of data and experience

We’ve learned a lot by conducting over 80 million interviews. With this data, our models focus on skills, behaviors, and competencies specific to the job and not on irrelevant information like how someone was dressed, which university they attended, or which keywords are in their resume.

AI in a human-centric way

External AI experts, along with our data scientists and industrial/organizational psychologists, regularly check our AI models to mitigate for bias.
