Standardized Questions Reduce But Dont Eliminate Bias

Standardized interview questions can help minimize unconscious bias by creating a uniform framework for evaluating all candidates. They ensure that each applicant is asked the same core questions, which promotes fairness and comparability. However, unconscious bias can still slip in during follow-ups, interpretation of answers, or non-verbal assessments. Therefore, while standardized questions are a valuable tool, they cannot completely eliminate bias in tech recruitment.
