I think there has to be some kind of subjective measure in the hiring process. Two people could have similarly excellent credentials and experience, but one may have terrible social/communication skills that are likely not reflected in their resume. I’ve seen several people say that screening for “culture fit” just introduces bias in the process, which is likely true, but I don’t think that negates the reality of some people just not being good fits for certain teams.

I agree that a blind-as-possible hiring process is probably the most fair, but I have doubts that it actually leads to the best hiring decisions. Although, quotas are fair to no one, in my opinion.
