These skills are defined by the hiring team for each position. A human reviews each application, with the AI assessment as just one input. * Interview support: In some interviews, we may use an AI notetaker to summarize the discussion so interviewers can focus on being present in the conversation. * Insights, not decisions: AI provides data points to support our team's evaluation but does not make or recommend final hiring decisions.
