Want to know how to make better hiring decisions with less bias? Here are three steps to build a fairer process.

If you don’t evaluate candidates fairly, you won’t end up with the results you want – no matter how much effort you put into sourcing. Every stage of the hiring process must prioritize equitable practices, and interviewing is often where unconscious bias has the most opportunity to sneak in.
