Analysis
The diversity criteria measurement was developed last year to measure diversity in hiring.
The criteria consist of a range of factors including race, ethnicity, gender, educational
background, geographic background, and personal interests. All elements are selfreported. The diversity criteria served as the basis for the algorithm developed in
partnership with Monarchy Technology for their Regency III screening software. In addition
to the criteria, additional AI features were developed by Monarchy including facial
recognition aimed
at measuring confidence in response, as well as language analysis aimed at determining
sentiment and emotion in applicant responses. The algorithm looks for a match to desired
diversity in trait combinations.
The data demonstrates a significant decrease in diversity within our hiring after the
implementation of Regency III. Last year, we achieved a 56% alignment with the diversity
criteria in new hires. This year, after the implementation of Regency III, the measure fell to
24%. We are unsure at this time as to the reason for the decrease other than it is a result of
using Regency III. We recommend an immediate halt to the use of Regency III.
