The hiring process for employers involves carefully drafting job descriptions, creating compliant written applications, and conducting fair interviews to avoid potential liabilities. Additionally, they need to be mindful of “ban the box” laws, also known as “fair chance laws,” that prevent employers from asking job applicants about their criminal history on initial application forms, and medical marijuana laws and employment. Finally, AI in hiring, which is still evolving, presents unique challenges that must be managed to ensure a fair and legal recruitment process.
