❓How about a break❓ At Fairsight, we believe in putting the candidate experience first, and our innovative ability test do just that. I'm excited to highlight some datea from our candidate-centric feature: the ability to pause the test for breaks. 🎉 Our data shows that this feature is a game-changer: 🌟 30% of candidates have utilized the pause feature to take a break. 🌟 On average, candidates take a 75 second break. You can use 3 minutes if you want. 🌟 Most candidates use the pause feature once during their test. 🧠 Why is this so important? We understand that cognitive performance can fluctuate, and providing the option to take a break can help candidates stay fresh and focused, leading to a more accurate representation of their abilities. Benefits of a break: ✅ Reduce test anxiety: By allowing candidates to pause and take breaks, we help mitigate the pressure and stress often associated with continuous testing. This leads to a more relaxed and authentic performance. ✅ Solve for distractions: Life happens. Whether it's a phone call, a doorbell, or just needing a moment to clear your head, the pause feature ensures candidates can manage distractions without impacting their performance. ✅ Face validity for real-life problem solving: In real-world job scenarios, complex problem-solving often includes opportunities for short breaks. Our feature mirrors this reality, making the test experience more realistic and fair. Here’s how it works: 💪 Flexibility: Candidates can pause the test at any point to take a short break between tasks. This ensures they can recharge and return to the test with a clear mind. ⚖️ Fairness: Our goal is to provide a level playing field where all candidates can perform at their best, without the pressure of continuous testing. 👌 User-Friendly: The pause feature is simple to use, integrated seamlessly into the test interface. 🤝 We believe that a more relaxed candidate is a more authentic candidate. This approach aligns with our commitment to fairness and innovation in the recruitment process. So, next time your asked to take an assessment and feel stressed or not at your best - how about a break?

What an amazing group of people to be on stage with! 🤩 On Tuesday May 21st, it was time again for the highlight of the year in terms of DE&I initiatives in the Nordics. Jobbfestivalen - Tema Mångfald & Inkludering, The Job Festival, took place in Kungsträdgården, Stockholm. Jobbfestivalen is Sweden's largest job fair, with a clear focus on diversity and inclusion. It is also a job-matching initiative, with the goal of establishing connections between organizations who are conscious about the ethical aspects of their talent acquisition, and job seekers who, for various reasons, have struggled to find their right place on the job market. Thanks to the efforts of Mats Wernheim and his team, more than 20,000 people have attended the two previous Jobbfestivalen fairs in Stockholm, and over 1,500 people have secured jobs or education placements as a result of it. This year, I had the pleasure of joining a panel on the topic of evidence-based recruitment, ethics, and AI, alongside industry leaders Emira Blomberg from Refapp, Fredrik Törn from Hubert, and Alex Tidgård from Grooo. The panel was brilliantly moderated Malin Freiman Moezzi. And of course, Fairsight was represented among the exhibitors. Thanks Mats Englund for spreading the word, and staying on top of it! If you are serious about DE&I, consider paying Stockholm a visit for next year’s Jobbfestivalen fair. And don’t be surprised if Mats brings this initiative to Oslo, Copenhagen, and Helsinki too in the course of the next few years. This is social entrepreneurship at its best. 👏 #fairsight #hiring #talentacquisition #responsibleai

🎤 In an interview with Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK) yesterday, I was asked about the use of AI within recruitment. Here is my background: A wrong hiring decision costs an average of one and a half years' salary. CEOs cite recruitment as the third most time-wasted process of all, following emails and meetings, estimated at “40% wasted time.” As if that weren't enough, the effects of poor hiring practices are far-reaching: from highly educated immigrants spending nearly 9 years trying to secure a job that matches their qualifications, to the alarming statistic that only 10% of the world's top executives are women. Not to mention the age bias that labels people in their mid-50s as "too old». Often this is due to poor recruitment practices. There is huge potential for improvement - and AI can help. At Fairsight, we believe that awareness of the ethical use of AI will increase, not least as a result of the new EU regulations on AI that are about to be introduced. Our view is that AI will make recruitment processes more efficient, but for now it should be used as a co-pilot, as a supplement to humans, and not for automated decisions about whether people should get a job or not. 🔝To move this field forward, we need effective human oversight that combines insights from psychological, legal, philosophical, and technical domains . It's with this belief that I shared my thoughts with NRK yesterday stating, "I have full confidence in the use of technology as a support tool, but that requires that there are professionals with their hands on the wheel".
