The Scismic Automated Recruiting Platform Joins Digital Science
Digital Science added Scismic, which builds technology platforms that help life science workers enhance their career outcomes, to its portfolio of companies. The Scismic Job Seeker automated recruiting platform for the biopharmaceutical industry “matches scientists to jobs based on expertise and removes sources of bias with its gender and race-blind matching algorithms, helping increase diversity in scientific hiring.” It shortens the recruiting process to 1 month or faster.“We wanted to build a way for fellow researchers to find workplaces in academia and industry that would empower them to do their best science, and drive more research into the market,” says Scismic co-founder Elizabeth Wu. “Improving on a slow and expensive hiring process alone would have made their service attractive, but offering built-in ways to create fairer hiring processes really does set them apart,” says Steve Scott, Digital Science’s director of portfolio development.
