Ever watched "America’s Got Talent" and seen judges bicker over candidates?

One judge thinks a contestant is amazing, another thinks they're just okay, while the third is less than impressed.

Why does this happen? Three different perspectives on the same performance.

Does this sound like your interview process?

Here are three reasons why:

1. Subjectivity: We see people as we are, not as they are, leading to varied opinions.

2. Lack of Clear Definitions: Without precise criteria, assessments vary widely. Imagine if AGT had exact standards for a great performance. Judges’ opinions would align much more closely.

3. Bias: Biases like "similar to me" or "beautiful is good" skew our decisions, leading to favoritism and unfair assessments.
