Sandy D leverages MirWork's AI recruiting tool to objectively evaluate and rank candidates, ensuring the perfect fit for her rapidly growing program.
Client Overview
Sandy D, a seasoned instructor at UC Berkeley and Stanford University, has spent years mentoring students on entrepreneurship, growth marketing courses.
As Sandy’s program gained popularity, it became clear that she needed more support. “I needed a teaching assistant who could not only understand the content but also manage critical tasks like scheduling office hours and grading projects.”
However, with an increasingly competitive applicant pool, she faced the challenge of objectively evaluating a large number of candidates without bias.
“The pressure to pick the right candidates has always been immense,” Sandy reflects. “It’s not just about academic prowess; it’s about finding individuals who are excellent communicators and logical thinkers.”
The Challenge
Sandy was tasked with evaluating 15 candidates to identify the top 3 who would best fit the program. Traditionally, she relied on her own experience and judgment, but she recognized the potential for unconscious bias and wanted a more data-driven approach to support her decision-making.
The Solution: MirWork's AI Recruiting Tool
Sandy decided to leverage MirWork’s AI-powered platform for a double-blind evaluation. The process was straightforward:
Each candidate participated in an interview, which was recorded and transcribed.
Sandy manually reviewed the interviews and ranked the candidates.
Simultaneously, MirWork’s AI analyzed the transcriptions, scoring each candidate on key metrics like communication skills, critical thinking, and overall compatibility with the program.
“What stood out to me was how seamlessly the platform integrated into my existing process,” Sandy recalls. “It didn’t replace my judgment; it enhanced it.”
The Results: MirWork's AI recruiting tool aligns with Sandy's top picks
The outcome was impressive. MirWork’s analysis identified and ranked the top 3 candidates, which perfectly matched Sandy’s manual rankings. This alignment was a powerful validation of the tool’s accuracy and its ability to mirror expert human judgment.
“When I saw that the AI’s top picks aligned with mine, it was both reassuring and eye-opening,” says Sandy. “It confirmed that I could trust this tool to help me make fair and informed decisions.”
Beyond just matching her rankings, MirWork also provided Sandy with detailed feedback on each candidate, highlighting specific areas where they excelled or needed improvement.
“The detailed insights were invaluable,” she adds. “They gave me a clearer picture of each candidate’s potential and how they might develop within our program.”
