I honestly don’t comprehend this answer. You mentioned unconscious bias in interviews:

> Having unscripted conversations is one of the best way to be swayed by unconscious bias in interviews.

Yet, lack of diversity of thought is “easy to spot”. Without being swayed by unconscious biases?

You are taking diversity of thought comment, which I mentioned as an attribute of a team and trying to apply to an interview, which is not what I intended. Your interview processes need to ensure that you do not hire based on biases, so that you will have a diverse team.

Also interview processes are not just interviewer protecting against his/her bias, but also against bias of interviewee which seems to be somehow lost in these discussions.
