Enable anonymized screening to reduce bias when first reviewing a candidate's resume. This will obscure the following information for candidates in the Sourced and Applied stages for jobs where anonymized screening is enabled:
- First and last name
- Candidate photo
- Social profiles
- Address
- Phone number
In order to preserve anonymity, you will not be able to contact candidates until they are disqualified or moved to a new stage. When a candidate is disqualified or moved out of the Sourced/Applied stages, the above information will become visible and options to contact them will become available.
To turn on anonymized screening, go to Settings, then Workflow. Turn on the switch and click Save Changes.
The option to anonymize the Sourced/Applied stages of specific jobs will now be available in the job editor:
- Edit a job by clicking on the three dots to the right of the job on the main dashboard
- Go to the Workflow tab in the editor
- Enable the switch for anonymizing candidates
This switch must be enabled for jobs individually. You can enable and disable it for draft jobs prior to publishing or at any time while the job is active.
Key details in a candidate's profile and resume will be obscured.
If Workable does not properly obscure identifying information from the list above, contact us for further investigation.
