Sundaram, now CEO at Applied, is making it her mission to kill the résumé — or at least diminish its role in hiring.
Sundaram wants other leaders to follow suit because our work bios — and even job experience — aren't always good predictors of who will succeed in a role.
The company might use only five or six questions per test to help identify suitable job candidates.
When employers do want to see a résumé, Applied can use AI to strip away information about gender and ethnicity.
For her part, Sundaram expects AI will change how so many people work that job candidates' employment histories might often reflect a smorgasbord of experiences.
