Instances of biased screening and opaque selection criteria have raised concerns about the negative impact of AI recruiting tech on marginalized groups. Calls for industry-wide regulation and the development of tools to identify and address bias in AI hiring systems are being made to ensure fair and equitable hiring practices.
