Transparency and Responsible AI Use At Edge of Talent, we strive to work efficiently and professionally. Therefore, we sometimes use AI-based tools to assist in our administration, for example, to structure and summarize information.

However, we want to be clear that AI never makes decisions for us. All decisions regarding which candidates proceed in our processes are made by a human who carefully evaluates each candidate based on competency criteria and how these match the client's specifications for the role.

Our ambition is to ensure a fair and transparent recruitment process where all candidates are assessed based on their actual merits and experiences.
