• During pre-employment screening, interviews have
  been a common practice. However, while interviews
  are important factor in the hiring process, there
  are certain questions asked which are unnecessary
  and seemingly discriminatory.

• Companies should be meticulous on choosing
  interviewers. A skilled interviewer is someone
  who can properly assess an applicant without
  running through inessential information. This is
  to avoid human rights complaint and lawsuits.

• Pre-employment screening procedures should
  include a strategy that supports programs
  regulated to improve the opportunities for
  disadvantaged sectors in relation with their age,
  ethnic origin, disability or anything that
  denotes discrimination.

• On the event that a complaint was filed, the
  company needs to show evidence that the data
  collected from the pre-employment screening
  process was not and will not be used for anything
  that signifies discrimination.
