The job application needs a fresh look. For sure, employers need to collect basic information like name, address and contact information. But like the question about convictions, the question isn’t if it can be asked but when. So here’s a crazy thought but one that might improve the odds of finding that needle-in-a-stack skilled worker and keep employers out of hot water. Ban-the-Box, Ban-the-Name, Ban-the-Address — that’s the way a fair, valid and job relevant screening process is supposed to work. It’s also an innovative approach to help employers identify highly skilled and qualified workers who are currently sifted out of consideration for the wrong reasons.
