Inclusive Hiring Platform
InclusionAZ
InclusionAZ is enhancing the vibrancy of Arizona’s technology ecosystem by imploring tech employers to provide fair hiring opportunities that attract diverse talent from across Arizona and beyond.
This initiative supports tech employers in adopting inclusive hiring practices using the FairHire Blind Hiring Platform that leverages scientific hiring protocols developed by the University of Bocconi Research Center in Milan, Italy. Each job post that follows this protocol will receive a FairHire ® Certification. This helps tech employers hire qualified and diverse tech talent, without bias, ensuring that Arizona’s tech ecosystem is shaped by the full breadth of residents that call Arizona home.

What is Blind Hiring?
Blind hiring is a behavioral science tactic used to tackle unconscious bias in the initial stages of the recruitment process. It helps the screening to be bias-free to ensure during the interview stage, you have the best candidates chosen based on skill and talent.
A blind resume conceals the personal identity of the candidate. Its usage in the recruitment process reduces the prevalence of unconscious bias. A typical blind Resume redacts name, gender, ethnicity, educational institution, and any contents that can reveal the candidate identity.
At what stage is the candidate’s identity revealed?
Unconscious bias has been a barrier for organizations to create a diverse workforce. It prevails mostly in the early-stage resume sifting and the anonymity seal is broken when the screening is finished.
Will the framework also provide candidates?
The FairHire framework is to help employers create an inclusive recruitment process. When the problem is tackled in the process layer, the solution is sustainable and stays agnostic to the people involved. The framework does not provide candidates.
