Our organization has new guidelines that we must adhere to for all new hiring and based on these guidelines, our team has rolled out a new process.
For example, we redact personal information from resumes before they are reviewed by hiring managers and we have a rubric for reviewing the resumes, need at least 2 rounds of interviews (but there can be more), need to have at least 3 panelists for each interview who are diverse in terms of race, level, gender, etc, each interview panel needs to ask standard questions for all candidates, need to have a rubric to evaluate the candidate on for each question of each interview, and if there is an assignment, it should be evaluated the same for all candidates. This process takes a bit of time and effort to set up, but once it's in place for one role, it gets easier. It's worth it to minimize bias in the process.
