I run a twelve person startup. I have interviewed maybe two hundred people in three years and I'm terrible at it. I hire people who remind me of me. I know this about myself and I still do it. The screening tool is the only part of my hiring process with any discipline at all. It asks everyone the same questions and scores the answers the same way, which is more than I can say for me at 9pm after my fourth interview of the day. Ban it and my hiring gets more biased, not less, because the alternative isn't some enlightened HR department. The alternative is me. Nobody wants that.
