Mitigating Unconscious Bias in Recruitment and Hiring.

Abstract

Unconscious biases in recruitment and hiring can limit the potential for building a diverse academic and private radiology practice. In the private practice environment of radiology, especially in smaller firms, in which a dysfunctional team can lead to a dysfunctional practice overall, it is especially essential to find the best candidates for the team. Many strategies for mitigating these biases can be employed strategically at multiple levels of the hiring process.
