Tag Checklists

Assessment

• Review adverse impact monitoring and candidate communication requirements.

AI

• Separate AI-assisted suggestions from deterministic rules and document both paths.

• Validate output quality on your own historical datasets with agreed success metrics.
• Review bias, explainability, and compliance controls appropriate for hiring decisions.
• Confirm admin controls for prompts, templates, and model behavior updates.

Bias Reduction

DEI
