This morning, BBC Breakfast called out a hard truth from a ManpowerGroup recent survey: 90% of organizations use AI in hiring, but fewer than 5% say it's working, and many candidates feel screened out by black boxes they can't understand.
They're right to ask the hard questions.
Responsible AI in hiring isn't a nice-to-have; it's the difference between a shortlist that's defensible and one that's indefensible. Between a process that attracts top talent and one that filters them out by accident.
This is why ManpowerGroup partner with Hubert. Structured, skills-based interviews. Explainable scoring: every candidate sees the exact reasoning behind their feedback, not a vague "come back in six months." Deterministic assessment; the same candidate answers yield the same score, every time. And crucially, human judgment stays at the center: recruiters make the final call.
The results speak for themselves: 67% faster screening, 85% candidate completion rates, 9 out of 10 on candidate experience. Speed and fairness aren't mutually exclusive when you build AI the right way.
The BBC asked what can be done. This is what can be done.
