Why Are Interviews Broken? Reason #1 (and How to Fix It)
Share This Article
Shiran on Why Are Interviews Broken

Trusting intuition over data.

Gut feelings might feel right, but research says otherwise:
1. Structured interviews are twice as effective at predicting job performance compared to unstructured ones.
2. Algorithms outperform human intuition, reducing bias and improving hiring outcomes.

The problem?
Most hiring decisions are still based on subjective “gut instincts,” leading to inconsistent and biased results.

How to fix it:

  • Standardize your interview process with consistent questions and predefined scoring rubrics,
  • Integrate data from multiple tools and perspectives to overcome individual bias and get an in-depth, more objective evaluation of candidates.

By shifting from intuition to data, you’ll hire smarter, fairer, and more effectively.

Stay tuned for Reason #2
