Quote from CEO of Carrier: For every 20 job postings that we have, there is one qualified applicant right now By qualified candidate, they mean trainable. However, if they use a hiring platform, it's why they can't find candidates. Hiring platforms silently drop viable candidates, while other checks serve to weed out the best people. A few classes of hireable people that businesses work hard to not hire: First job applicants Applicants with breaks in their job history Candidates with minor criminal records (ex: excessive speed) People with not-high credit scores People in wrong zip codes Applicants who match irrelevant criteria hidden by black-box algorithms People who are bad at typical job interviews If a major employer is farming out any of their hiring procedures, they're paying to deny jobs to the people they need.
