Yeah I deliberately didn’t claim that it actually reduced bias. (Though I think I’d be more worried about class signifiers in the language/content/choice of the answers). It also feels somewhat questionable to me whether working hard to reduce bias is worth it for the company. Obviously there are legal obligations to avoid discrimination but being fair to everyone can mean more work per hire making the process more expensive. The best argument in favour of trying to be fair is that it increases your chance of finding a hire with outlier performance, though I think it is pretty easy to drop such people at other steps.
