Background
Equitas is an interview intelligence software designed to aid in fair and inclusive hiring, enabling companies to build diverse teams. They have created the fairest way to conduct and score live interviews using frameworks, structured scoring, and interview data capture.
Their mission is to transform the hiring process through the use of technology and data to foster engaging conversations that provide each candidate or employee with equal opportunities while enabling HR teams to make quicker decisions with confidence.
The Project
Our task was to design a platform for employers, helping them to modernise the typical interview experience while ensuring the process is still fair, consistent, and engaging.
Streamlining the entire interview process was the focus here. Equitas provides employers with a centralised system where campaigns are initiated, candidates are invited and scheduling is all performed in one place.
Interviews are then captured and transcribed to allow referencing at a later stage. Objectivity was important for Equitas so an evidence-based scoring system was included to alleviate guessing and gut instinct.
To top it off, data and key performance indicators are analyzed by the system to identify bias and monitor areas for improvement and optimization. It was important to present this data in the clearest way possible, ensuring the most important data was easily legible.
Evaluation
The project was a huge success and we maintain a solid relationship with Equitas and are invested in the long-term success of their project. I am confident that we will collaborate and work together for the foreseeable future.
From the client:
“Working with Stephen has been incredible. For early-stage companies, he is the perfect stopgap and additional resource to any in-house UX/UI designers that you might have.
Project-based work where he always delivered on time and was great value for money. We have used him for multiple projects and will keep using him for future projects because he is so easy to work with and genuinely cares about what we are building in the HR & DEI tech space. He really tries to understand the company goal which in our case is to create fair hiring and he uses this to create intuitive screens that help deliver on your company’s mission.
Candidates and interviewers have loved it so far, looking forward to the next project we work together on. Feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn and ask any questions on working with Stephen, happy to vouch for him.”
