Yep. Lot's of "data analysis" without even defining what would be a "false positive" (someone who did well in an interview, got an offer but turned out to be a bad hire? how is TB exposed to that critical data exactly?)
- walamaking 8y agoIt wasn't clear at all in the article what it even meant when it referred to "final outcome".

- ggggtez 8y agoIf a "bad hire" means fired before 3 months... Then I really have to question exactly how they did this analysis. I can't imagine most companies would have the same objective function.
