Frequently asked questions
How does Cangrade prevent bias in hiring assessments?
Cangrade uses a patented bias removal process applied at three levels: individual question, trait, and overall model. Every assessment question is tested across all EEOC-protected demographic groups before deployment. Any question or trait that shows statistically significant adverse impact on any protected group is eliminated before it reaches a candidate. The process is documented in US Patent No. 11,429,859, publicly available on the USPTO database. Cangrade’s assessments have no statistically significant adverse impact on any legally protected demographic group.
Does structured assessment actually improve diversity outcomes or does it just create a different kind of bias?
Structured, validated assessment tends to improve diversity outcomes compared to unstructured screening because it replaces the proxies like prestigious institutions, polished resumes, and confident interview presence that introduce systematic bias. Cangrade’s assessments measure job-relevant competencies directly, evaluated against the same criteria for every candidate regardless of background. The adverse impact testing process ensures no protected group is disproportionately screened out.
Is Cangrade’s assessment ADA-compliant?
Yes. Cangrade’s assessments are designed to be accessible for candidates with visual impairments and assess candidates of all abilities without bias. The platform is ADA-compliant, and the assessment experience is built to work across devices and accommodate different accessibility needs. Candidates are evaluated on job-relevant competencies, not on factors that would disadvantage candidates with disabilities.
How does Cangrade’s bias removal go beyond standard EEOC requirements?
EEOC guidelines protect specific federally recognized demographic categories. Cangrade’s patented process tests for adverse impact across a broader set of protected groups than federal requirements mandate, and eliminates any question or trait that shows disproportionate impact on any of them, not just the legally required minimum. The methodology is also fully auditable, providing the documentation employers need to demonstrate fair hiring practices in compliance reviews or legal proceedings.
How does Cangrade help us report on and track DE&I outcomes in hiring?
Cangrade’s platform provides reporting on candidate evaluation data across your hiring pipeline, giving DE&I and HR teams visibility into where candidates are advancing and where they’re not. Because every assessment score is explainable and auditable, you can demonstrate objective, criteria-based decision-making to stakeholders, legal teams, and compliance reviewers. The combination of bias-free scoring and transparent audit trails makes Cangrade a defensible tool for organizations that need to document their commitment to equitable hiring.
