Shaping Responsible & Inclusive AI in Recruitment

AI is revolutionizing hiring, but hidden biases can undermine fairness. Did you know that job-matching algorithms may unintentionally disadvantage women? For example, slower response times from women are often misinterpreted as a lack of interest, reducing their job recommendations.

To tackle these challenges, the BIAS Project invites HR professionals to a free, online, and hands-on capacity-building session in Switzerland. Learn how to critically assess AI tools, address ethical concerns, and integrate fairness into recruitment processes.
