In 2007, researchers published a seminal paper which shows that the more meritocratic you think your company is, the more biased you are:(http://www.socialjudgments.com/docs/Uhlmann%20and%20Cohen%202007.pdf http://www.socialjudgments.com/docs/Uhlmann%20and%20Cohen%20...). While that is also human to do, and company cultures obviously develop flavors over time, when it comes to technical hiring, we sorely need an effort to first prove and then to reduce biases, based on data. This is a great effort. At http://InterviewKickstart.com http://InterviewKickstart.com, we're trying to do this indirectly in a small way. The better you are at solving problems, the less the biases affect you.
