A little bit about how we hire…

We are committed to employment equity and making the application process as fair and efficient as possible! To handle the volume of applications, we use an Artificial Intelligence‑assisted tool to help us sort and evaluate applications for this role. This tool gives us a helpful starting point, but it never makes a final hiring decision on its own. Our hiring team always reviews the information to decide who moves forward.

In compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, this tool is reviewed regularly to ensure it does not produce biased or discriminatory outcomes. Where required, it also undergoes an independent annual bias audit, and a summary of the most recent audit will be made publicly available. Candidates that are retained will be contacted for an interview.
