WRIT 206 RUNB Screening Tools Candidate Seeking Discussion Read The Wall Street Journal article (Links to an external site.) and compose a 250-word response:

1. Shellenbarger describes a nifty assembly-line of job candidates that
basically get weeded out for a number of reasons. Whereas some screening
tools can minimize bias, other tools might be considered intrusive:

“Some tools serve as job-market matchmakers. ZipRecruiter matches
candidates and employers by scanning applicants’ qualifications and
employers’ postings, tracking users’ behavior on the site and employing
algorithms similar to those used by Amazon for suggesting products…” (para 8).

What are your reactions and thoughts to the screening process and these tools?

2. In what way(s) are job candidates like Amazon products for recruiters and/or employers?

3. What, if any, are the implications of using tools to track user behavior? Do you feel
reasonably safe and secure applying or being vetted by these algorithms?
